the people who do best here are almost always the ones going slowest
appetite returning at the end of the week is extremely common and is not the dose failing
small steps are better than big ones and the only reason people take big ones is impatience
no trial for that
two weeks is nothing
how long did you hold at 2.5 before you moved up
how do you decide between holding and stepping when both feel wrong
update from 21 months ago: held at the same dose the whole time and still losing slowly
