Highlights from this day
  • maintenance_mo — i weigh weekly at maintenance rather than daily and my range is about two kilos either side, i have it written down somewhere 20:28
  • maintenance_mo — quick one how much protein were people eating at maintenance compared to while losing 20:30
  • blind_submit — SURMOUNT-OSA is the stopping one. weight came back on for most people once the drug stopped. that is the finding, not an opinion 21:03
  • blind_submit — coming back after 10 months of maintenance, is anyone interested in the numbers 21:27

appetite returning is not the drug failing, it is the drug doing less because you are taking less of it

come down slower than that

two or three kilos up and down is normal fluctuation. ten is a different conversation

anyone tried every ten days or every fortnight as a maintenance schedule

The withdrawal arm. This is the trial to read before you plan to stop.

i put 34 back on after stopping and then went back on it. it worked the same the second time round

protein went up during maintenance for me rather than down, which was completely counterintuitive

coming down too fast was my mistake. top rung to the bottom rung inside a month and it was a bad month

SURMOUNT-OSA is the stopping one. weight came back on for most people once the drug stopped. that is the finding, not an opinion

nobody here can tell you whether to stop. we can tell you what happened to us when we did

coming back after 10 months of maintenance, is anyone interested in the numbers
