- void_volume — if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise you do not have to escalate at all. that is a real option that gets forgotten 22:07
- thursday_thea — if you are asking whether to go up, the fact you are asking usually means not yet, i could be wrong 22:17
- thursday_thea — i escalate on symptoms. if the current dose is still doing something i stay on it, i have it written down somewhere 22:19
- seven_five_sweet — the honest answer is that most of us are running protocols nobody has ever studied, thats one data point 22:21
- seven_five_sweet — nobody here can tell you what dose to be on and the ones who try get corrected 22:52
the argument for splitting is a flatter curve. the argument against is you have doubled your injections for a guess
what does the room think about jumping a rung to catch up
if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise

the honest answer is that most of us are running protocols nobody has ever studied, thats one data point
a missed week does not reset you, but going straight back to the top dose after a gap is how people get floored
came down from a treatment dose to maintenance over about three months and it was uneventful
is it normal for appetite to come back at the end of the week
quick one do you escalate on the calendar or on how you feel
nobody here can tell you what dose to be on and the ones who try get corrected
i would hold
is there any actual reason to escalate every 4 weeks other than the trial did it
