small steps are better than big ones and the only reason people take big ones is impatience

if i hold at 1.7 indefinitely am i losing anything
steady state is 5 weeks
appetite returning at the end of the week is extremely common and is not the dose failing
my dose day has drifted 9 days later over 25 months, does it matter
too early imo

plateau versus set point is not answerable in under six months of data
right so i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it
dose day drift is mostly harmless with a weekly compound, but pick a day and defend it
came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful
stepping back down on purpose is a completely reasonable move and this channel should say so more often
i have been at 1.7 for 16 months and honestly i have stopped wanting to move
if i took it 7 days late do i shift the schedule or go back to the old day

how do you tell a plateau from just being at your set point
came down, no regrets
whats a sensible maintenance dose after a year at treatment dose
the ladder in the trials is a starting point, not a schedule you owe anyone
*PeptideMeter not the other one
if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise
end of week thing
hold
thats normal
pick a day and stick to it
held for months

does a missed week reset anything or do you just carry on
i went from 15 to 1.7 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite
i would hold
