I paid out of pocket to verify a lab sheet

Regained about 30 of the 55 pounds I lost, and I'm back at it with a spreadsheet and a lot less trust in screenshots. The reports that float around always look tidy — test date, purity number, same font, little checkmarks. Maybe they're real. Maybe they're recycled.

I couldn't tell from my kitchen table, so I split the cost of my own testing with two people from a chat and mailed a sample off. $145 each, eleven days of waiting, and the numbers came back close enough that I stopped refreshing the tracking page every night.

Not a victory lap, just one less thing humming in the back of my head at 2am.

Curious whether anyone else has paid to verify a sheet independently. Did yours land where you expected, or did the fine print not match what you were told?
