- brisbane_bac — dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters 21:56
- brisbane_bac — moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me 23:15
- taper_tess — unrelated but compounded and brand felt the same to me at 1.7, which is one person and nothing more 23:27
did anyone titrate slower than four weeks a step and how did that go
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters
[edited]is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose
plateaus move
five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt
STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers
slower worked better
is the plateau usually appetite coming back or just the scale stopping
thats STEP 1
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
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
mine faded too
going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution
moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step
unrelated but compounded and brand felt the same to me at 1.7, which is one person and nothing more
i stayed on 1.7 for 19 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it
coming back to this does the licensed ceiling for weight differ from the diabetes one
