Highlights from this day
the appetite effect faded for me around 25 months and going up fixed it for a while
Testing queue: 2 submissions open, 108 awaiting dispatch.
went too fast once
i stayed on 1.7 for 8 months and never went to 2.4, appetite was already where i needed it
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing, i think
STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping
📈1🎉3💀3
STEP is several trials, so saying STEP said x is usually wrong without a number after it
$94 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
🔥11
i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication, i think
*VendorInvestigate not the other one
i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
vial units and pen clicks are different systems, mixing the two is how people end up wrong
thats STEP 1
lost about 29kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me
is 2.4 the top or do people go past it
✅10📈17⚠️16
not the same trial
held at 1.7 and lost 28lb over 15 months, slower than the trials and fine by me
how long till steady state, ive read the half life is about a week
coming back to this moving my dose day by a day or two never did anything noticeable for me
😂11
does moving my dose day by two days matter with a seven day half life
11 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half

while im here licensed ceiling for weight is 2.4 weekly, anything above that is not a licensed dose
does the seven day half life mean the last two days are weaker
half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
the plateau hit me at 10 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
vials not pens here
2.4 is the ceiling
back after 7 months off, do i restart at 0.25 or somewhere higher
the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip

my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem
what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything
for the archive brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel
my 2 vial in 2ml gives 8mg/ml so 12 lands on 15 units, thats why i picked that volume
plateaus move

im at 10 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
follow up went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down
⚠️16
i held at 2.4 for 3 months and it was the best decision i made
dose day is sunday for me only because thats when i remember, not because sunday matters
same dose day
did anybody find a difference between JEEP and pharmacy at the same 0.25
