Highlights from this day
- week_three_wall — my 20 vial in 3ml gives 8mg/ml so 2.5 lands on 40 units, thats why i picked that volume 15:06
- mg_per_ml — £72 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials 15:46
- VialBot — Reminder for week_three_wall: dose day is today. Set 3 days ago. 16:32

the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip

does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
my dose day drifted from friday to sunday, does that reset anything
not the same trial
went too fast once
👀8🤝2📉9
compounded and brand felt the same to me at 0.25, which is one person and nothing more, ill dig out the number
slower worked better
held there too
[edited]what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything
Reminder for week_three_wall: dose day is today. Set 3 days ago.
i stayed on 1.7 for 10 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it, anyway
the plateau hit me at 10 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution
i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication, ymmv
moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
how did people handle the jump from 1 to 1.7
whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers
i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose
🙏1
did anyone hold at 15 longer than four weeks before going up
mine faded too
the appetite effect faded for me around 7 months and going up fixed it for a while
seven days ish
is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
plateaus move
does the licensed ceiling for weight differ from the diabetes one
coming back to this how long till steady state, ive read the half life is about a week
