Highlights from this day
- area_percent — for the archive restarted at 2.5 after 7 months off and the first two doses reminded me why titration exists, we shall see 17:04
- two_three_lifts — i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did 17:41
- kev_measures — held 10 for 14 months and lost 44kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine 18:03
- area_percent — why does everyone talk about 7.5 and not 10 18:54
- logrotate — did anyone go past 15 and was there any point to it 19:44

switched last year
no gap when i switched, took the last semaglutide dose and started this a week later, someone check my working
[edited]$240 for a 15 vial is roughly what ive paid for the last year
licensed top is 15 weekly, past that is not a licensed dose and nobody here can tell you what it does
i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did

same plateau here
did going from 0.5 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone
held 10 for 14 months and lost 44kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine

40 units of a 2 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time
coming off semaglutide, is there a conversion or do i restart at 2.5
is the sweet spot argument about effect or about side effects
is 7.5 really the sweet spot or is that just channel folklore
easier gi for me
dual agonist, GIP as well as GLP-1, thats the whole difference in one line
plateaued at 27 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific, happy to be corrected
how many weeks at 7.5 before you knew it was enough
changed my mind about needing 15, i was chasing a number rather than an outcome, n of 1 obviously
why does everyone talk about 7.5 and not 10

10 was enough
the two compounds arent interchangeable week for week even if the effect ends up similar
coming back to this SURMOUNT-OSA was the sleep apnoea trial and it is not a weight headline however its quoted
checked the units twice

at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that
the trials titrated every four weeks to a target, most people here stop at whatever works, ymmv
did anyone go past 15 and was there any point to it

SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up
slightly off topic but there is no clean conversion between the two, anyone giving you a ratio is guessing
at 2.4 my appetite went completely and i dropped back a step, eating nothing isnt a win
