Highlights from this day
- split_dose_sam — did anybody find a difference between HJ and pharmacy at the same 2.5 00:55
- travel_cooler — went to 2.4 and the extra suppression wasnt worth the GI for me, so i came back down £38 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people… 01:02
- panel_before_after — changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels, for what its worth £94 a month for compounded against what brand… 01:38
- deamidation — my Janoshik report on the CPC vial came back 99.2 against a certificate saying 96.8 02:09
the plateau hit me at 33 weeks and moved again about a month later without a dose change
my 20 vial in 2ml gives 2.5mg/ml so 5 lands on 50 units, thats why i picked that volume
give it four weeks

the appetite effect faded for me around 1 months and going up fixed it for a while

quick one does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
23 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half, ask me again in a month
changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels, for what its worth
£94 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
my 15 vial in 5ml gives 2mg/ml so 0.5 lands on 5 units, thats why i picked that volume
STEP 1 ran to 68 weeks. thats the one everyone half remembers, i think
vials not pens here
mine faded too
my Janoshik report on the CPC vial came back 99.2 against a certificate saying 96.8

while im here half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose
the appetite effect faded for me around 14 months and going up fixed it for a while
my plateau was the scale stopping while appetite stayed suppressed, which is a different problem
i was wrong about the ceiling for a year, i thought 3 existed. it doesnt for the weight indication
