- group_buy_gwen — 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 01:10
- ruo_only — split dosing has no trial behind it. people here do it and report on it, thats all holding is not failing. most people here who lasted two years held at least one… 01:23
- ruo_only — how long did you hold at 2.4 before you moved up 01:30
- ruo_only — if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise 01:44
came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful
the people who do best here are almost always the ones going slowest
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
whats a sensible maintenance dose after a year at treatment dose
too early imo
split dosing has no trial behind it. people here do it and report on it, thats all
holding is not failing. most people here who lasted two years held at least one dose for months
steady state is 5 weeks
i went from 0.5 to 7.5 and honestly could not tell the difference in appetite
how long did you hold at 2.4 before you moved up
my dose day has drifted 6 days later over 26 months, does it matter
anyone tracked whether a smaller more frequent dose changed their side effects
if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise
follow up the argument for splitting is a flatter curve. the argument against is you have doubled your injections for a guess
i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it
