if i hold at 2 indefinitely am i losing anything
appetite returning at the end of the week is extremely common and is not the dose failing
hold
[edited]coming back to this how do you decide between holding and stepping when both feel wrong
with a roughly seven day half-life you are near steady state after about five weeks at a dose, your mileage will differ
right so if you are asking whether to go up, the fact you are asking usually means not yet
quick one the argument for splitting is a flatter curve. the argument against is you have doubled your injections for a guess
sorry to jump in how much does the last dose still matter 6 days later
i went from 1 to 10 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite
if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise
came down, no regrets
n of 1
i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it
held for months
is there any actual reason to escalate every 4 weeks other than the trial did it
[edited]if i took it 7 days late do i shift the schedule or go back to the old day
if it "stopped working after four days" that is almost never pharmacokinetics
the ladder in the trials is a starting point, not a schedule you owe anyone
does a missed week reset anything or do you just carry on
i log dose, day, weight and one line about how the week felt. thats enough to make decisions on
[edited]i hold for two months minimum before i decide a dose has stopped doing anything
