steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing

vials not pens here
how long did the first 40kg take for people at the low doses
[edited]did anyone hold at 0.25 longer than four weeks before going up
2.4 is the ceiling
steady state takes weeks

Testing queue: 7 submissions open, 72 awaiting dispatch.
licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose
slower worked better
restarted after 6 months off at a low dose and the nausea arrived exactly like the first time
STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping

anyone compared their 8 vial dosing against the pen increments

im 14 months in at 2.4 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters
thats STEP 1

the plateau hit me at 20 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
[edited]did anyone titrate slower than four weeks a step and how did that go
STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers
mine faded too
went too fast once
plateaus move
held there too
my 40 vial in 1.5ml gives 8mg/ml so 1 lands on 50 units, thats why i picked that volume
does moving my dose day by two days matter with a seven day half life

did the STEP 4 withdrawal arm show what i think it showed
my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem
does the licensed ceiling for weight differ from the diabetes one
SELECT was cardiovascular outcomes in people with overweight and existing disease, not a weight trial, thats just me
