is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing

going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution
brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel

held at 1 and lost 85lb over 22 months, slower than the trials and fine by me
went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down

seven days ish
ok so changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels, from memory
mine faded too
not the same trial

went too fast once
26 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half
[edited]is the plateau at 3 weeks normal or am i doing something wrong
restarted after 4 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time
i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication
went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step
im at 0.25 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
i stayed on 1.7 for 8 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it
my dose day drifted from friday to sunday, does that reset anything
quick one did anyone hold at 0.25 longer than four weeks before going up
wk 1-4 0.25mg
wk 5-10 0.50mg (held 2 extra weeks)
wk 11-14 1.00mg
wk 15-26 1.70mg (held, long)
wk 27+ 2.40mghow long did the first 46kg take for people at the low doses
slower worked better
is the plateau usually appetite coming back or just the scale stopping
lost about 12kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me
what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers, thats one data point
i held at 1 for 3 months and it was the best decision i made
