did the STEP 4 withdrawal arm show what i think it showed
STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers
my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem
20 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half

is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it, your mileage will differ
anyone compared their 2.5 vial dosing against the pen increments
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
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
going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution, i could be wrong

give it four weeks
does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
held at 10 and lost 26lb over 12 months, slower than the trials and fine by me, still working it out
my Janoshik report on the WWB vial came back 96.8 against a certificate saying 99.4
same dose day
whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers
the appetite effect faded for me around 26 months and going up fixed it for a while
2.4 is the ceiling
im at 2.4 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
$38 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
restarted after 9 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time, ymmv
vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong

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
did anyone hold at 0.5 longer than four weeks before going up
