going slow cost me nothing except time and saved me two bad weeks, thats my whole contribution
moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
[edited]did anybody find a difference between GL Biochem and pharmacy at the same 12

i held at 1.7 for 9 months and it was the best decision i made
12 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half, we shall see
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
🤝2🙏3
steady state is the bit people skip, judging a new dose after eight days tells you almost nothing, take that with a pinch of salt
mine faded too
vials not pens here

lost about 31kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me, not advice obviously

SELECT wasnt weight

the appetite effect faded for me around 21 months and going up fixed it for a while
compounded and brand felt the same to me at 12, which is one person and nothing more
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+ 2.40mgim 13 months in at 1.7 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
went too fast once
five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt
changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels
whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers
does the seven day half life mean the last two days are weaker

my 5 vial in 3ml gives 2mg/ml so 2.5 lands on 30 units, thats why i picked that volume, thats just me

2.4 is the ceiling
❤️5📈1🙏1
is the plateau at 17 weeks normal or am i doing something wrong
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters

i stayed on 1.7 for 24 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it

steady state takes weeks
not the same trial
if youre comparing brand to compounded, dose accuracy in the vial is the variable, not the molecule
is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
slightly off topic but the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
*week 23 not week 7
my Janoshik report on the KP vial came back 99 against a certificate saying 99.2, i have it written down somewhere
same dose day
give it four weeks
anyone gone from 2.4 straight to 1 or is that too big a jump
