Highlights from this day
- mg_per_ml — for the archive the appetite effect faded for me around 8 months and going up fixed it for a while 22:38
- taper_tess — held at 2.4 and lost 9lb over 9 months, slower than the trials and fine by me 22:43
- taper_tess — SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial, ask me again in a month 23:25

while im here how long till steady state, ive read the half life is about a week
is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
held at 2.4 and lost 9lb over 9 months, slower than the trials and fine by me

STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
mine faded too
ok so im at 5 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
coming back to this moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
my 30 vial in 1.5ml gives 2.5mg/ml so 1.7 lands on 30 units, thats why i picked that volume
anyone gone from 0.25 straight to 12 or is that too big a jump
not the same trial
back after 10 months off, do i restart at 0.25 or somewhere higher
restarted after 4 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time

does the seven day half life mean the last two days are weaker
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
did anyone titrate slower than four weeks a step and how did that go
does the licensed ceiling for weight differ from the diabetes one

my dose day drifted from friday to sunday, does that reset anything
