Highlights from this day
  • turnaround_tam — genuine question if the current dose is still working, going up is spending headroom you might want later 21:13
  • turnaround_tam — if you are going up because the scale stalled for two weeks, wait. two weeks is noise 21:21
  • VialBot — Verification log updated: BCH — evidence added, status unchanged. 21:34
  • septum_sal — i jumped a rung once to catch up after a supply gap and it was a bad week. would not repeat 22:03
  • two_four_ceiling — my rule: if a side effect is still there at day five, i hold. if it clears by day three, i step 23:16

appetite returning at the end of the week is extremely common and is not the dose failing

i jumped a rung once to catch up after a supply gap and it was a bad week. would not repeat

is there a trial anywhere that studied twice weekly, or is it all anecdote
