does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
#semaglutide 2025-12-24
- step_one_sian — unrelated but how long did the first 47kg take for people at the low doses 17:03
- u100_pat — genuine question the plateau hit me at 29 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change, i could be wrong 19:25
- u100_pat — my Medutest report on the ERP vial came back 99.2 against a certificate saying 96.8 19:33
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip, i could be wrong
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose, from memory
compounded and brand felt the same to me at 12, which is one person and nothing more
is the plateau at 15 weeks normal or am i doing something wrong
lost about 18kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me, i think
unrelated but how long did the first 47kg take for people at the low doses
does the licensed ceiling for weight differ from the diabetes one
did anyone titrate slower than four weeks a step and how did that go
slower worked better
right so €240 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
unrelated but brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel
same dose day
held there too
went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step
does the seven day half life mean the last two days are weaker
not the same trial
mine faded too
vials not pens here
seven days ish
STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it
went too fast once
2.4 is the ceiling
my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters
genuine question the plateau hit me at 29 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change, i could be wrong
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
i held at 10 for 2 months and it was the best decision i made
coming back to this how many weeks before you noticed anything at 2.5
how did people handle the jump from 1 to 1.7
my Medutest report on the ERP vial came back 99.2 against a certificate saying 96.8
give it four weeks
update on the earlier thing i stayed on 1.7 for 22 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it
SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial
went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down
vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong
whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers
