appetite came back over about three weeks after i reduced, not all at once, which is what i had braced for
a 10mg vial at a 2mg maintenance dose is five weeks of doses, so my monthly cost roughly halved
i dropped from 7.5 to 1.7 for maintenance and held steady for fourteen months

slightly off topic but does anyone lift specifically to hold onto muscle now that theyre maintaining
i came off for four months, put 42 back on, and came back. no drama in it, just numbers
am i the only one finding maintenance harder than losing was
regain after stopping is the expected outcome, which is a horrible sentence and also what the data says, still working it out
the muscle question is the one i wish i had taken seriously at month two instead of month twelve
