Highlights from this day
- month_six_me — 17 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half, take that with a pinch of salt 13:09
- bpc_sceptic — does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four 13:16
- bpc_sceptic — my dose day drifted from friday to sunday, does that reset anything 13:23
- bpc_sceptic — what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything 13:27
is there a reason to hold at 1.7 rather than going to 2.4
five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt
is the plateau usually appetite coming back or just the scale stopping
anyone gone from 7.5 straight to 1 or is that too big a jump
STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping

i held at 0.25 for 9 months and it was the best decision i made
does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four

the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip, thats just me
*that should say weekly
what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything

im 2 months in at 1 and the appetite effect faded, is that a thing
did the STEP 4 withdrawal arm show what i think it showed
update on the earlier thing im at 15 and stuck, did anyone break a plateau without going up
unrelated but back after 14 months off, do i restart at 0.25 or somewhere higher
update on the earlier thing STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers
my 30 vial in 2.5ml gives 10mg/ml so 1 lands on 20 units, thats why i picked that volume
i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
was SELECT the one that ran to 68 weeks or am i mixing them up
did anyone hold at 2.4 longer than four weeks before going up
