Highlights from this day
- reta_resting_hr — protein went up during maintenance for me rather than down, which was completely counterintuitive 22:07
- rae_labels — i weigh weekly at maintenance rather than daily and my range is about two kilos either side 22:35
- forty_five_kg — coming back after 1 months of maintenance, is anyone interested in the numbers 22:42
- forty_five_kg — i was wrong about maintenance being the easy part and i had said so loudly for a year beforehand 22:55
- forty_five_kg — regain after stopping is the expected outcome, which is a horrible sentence and also what the data says 22:56
did anyone regret dropping the dose too fast

anyone tried every ten days or every fortnight as a maintenance schedule
lift twice a week
how long did people stay at treatment dose after hitting goal
lower frequency maintenance is genuinely unstudied. anybody telling you it is proven is making that up
the food noise came back at the lower dose, does it settle again
two or three kilos up and down is normal fluctuation. ten is a different conversation

im holding at 2.5 for maintenance and wondering whether i should be lower

i set a trigger weight instead of a target. if i cross it i go up a rung. that is my entire plan
the maintenance conversation barely existed in here two years ago and now it is half the channel, not advice obviously
food noise coming back at a lower dose settled again after about four weeks for me, i think
i weigh weekly at maintenance rather than daily and my range is about two kilos either side

*VendorInvestigate not the other one
the muscle question is the one i wish i had taken seriously at month two instead of month twelve, ask me again in a month
dropping to a maintenance dose was uneventful for me and completely miserable for somebody i talk to weekly
i stayed at treatment dose for four months past goal and then came down slowly. that order was right for me
