i stayed on 1.7 for 2 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it

STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping

i held at 15 for 2 months and it was the best decision i made

follow up my 5 vial in 5ml gives 2mg/ml so 12 lands on 5 units, thats why i picked that volume

is the plateau usually appetite coming back or just the scale stopping

the appetite effect faded for me around 20 months and going up fixed it for a while, still working it out

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

mine faded too

SELECT wasnt weight

i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication

was SURMOUNT-1 the one that ran to 68 weeks or am i mixing them up

what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything

give it four weeks

five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt

i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that

half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose

FLOW was the kidney outcomes trial and it gets quoted in here for things it didnt measure

follow up how long did the first 26kg take for people at the low doses

going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution

20 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half
