2.4 is the ceiling
#semaglutide 2024-10-07
vials not pens here
thats STEP 1
On this day 7 years ago this channel logged 59 messages.
went 1 to 1.7 too fast and spent two weeks regretting it, dropped back and repeated the step
mine faded too
SELECT wasnt weight
im at 7.5 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down
slower worked better
wk 1-4 0.25mg
wk 5-10 0.50mg (held 2 extra weeks)
wk 11-14 1.00mg
wk 15-26 1.70mg (held, long)
wk 27+ 2.40mgSTEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it
the plateau hit me at 22 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
while im here did anyone hold at 2.4 longer than four weeks before going up
same dose day
slightly off topic but what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything
Channel stats, last 30 days: 100 messages from 21 members.
anyone compared their 5 vial dosing against the pen increments
plateaus move
i stayed on 1.7 for 7 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it, ask me again in a month
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
ok so my VendorInvestigate report on the KP vial came back 98.6 against a certificate saying 96.8
i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
anyone gone from 5 straight to 2.5 or is that too big a jump
SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial
not the same trial
18 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half
i held at 1 for 6 months and it was the best decision i made, i think
give it four weeks
held there too
whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers
steady state takes weeks
how did people handle the jump from 1 to 1.7
does the seven day half life mean the last two days are weaker
went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down
is the plateau usually appetite coming back or just the scale stopping
went too fast once
Recon calculator: 2mg in 2.5ml = 8mg/ml.
sorry to jump in changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels
seven days ish
