Highlights from this day
  • cold_chain_cmdr — i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication 12:45
  • cold_chain_cmdr — did anybody find a difference between QYB and pharmacy at the same 12 12:49
  • drawup_dee — going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution 13:43
  • drawup_dee — is the plateau usually appetite coming back or just the scale stopping 14:12

SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial
held at 0.25 and lost 9lb over 26 months, slower than the trials and fine by me

DD

moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me

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

DD

STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it

2.4 is the ceiling

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

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

unrelated but im 16 months in at 10 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing

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

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+    2.40mg

€38 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials

DD

coming back to this if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping

DD

does moving my dose day by two days matter with a seven day half life

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