what does the room think about jumping a rung to catch up

👍12❤️4

is there a point where going up stops buying you anything

for the archive the trials escalated on a fixed schedule because a trial has to. you are not a trial

for the archive holding is not failing. most people here who lasted two years held at least one dose for months

is there any actual reason to escalate every 4 weeks other than the trial did it

NT

i went up too fast and im paying for it, do i drop back or ride it out

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

LL

i went from 5 to 15 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite
if you are asking whether to go up, the fact you are asking usually means not yet

PT

i drifted from sunday to wednesday over a year and only noticed when i checked the log

too early imo

LL

does a missed week reset anything or do you just carry on
dose day drift is mostly harmless with a weekly compound, but pick a day and defend it

QP

while im here update from 15 months ago: held at the same dose the whole time and still losing slowly

anyone here split their weekly into two and would they do it again

CO

i went to the top of the ladder, felt no better than two rungs down, and came back. that is data for me and nobody else

QP

my titration ladder took 13 months to climb and i would do it slower again

GG

appetite returning at the end of the week is extremely common and is not the dose failing

GG

the honest answer is that most of us are running protocols nobody has ever studied
