half life is about a week so youre roughly four to five weeks to steady state on any new dose

Highlights from this day
- bac_water_bill — whats the actual licensed ceiling, i keep seeing different numbers lost about 11kg on the low doses before i even got to 1, which surprised me 21:06
- madrid_mg — the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip 22:03
- half_life_hal — i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that 23:34
STEP 4 had the withdrawal arm, thats the one people quote when they talk about stopping

24 months at 2.4 and the honest summary is diminishing returns after the first half
the trials titrated on a fixed schedule, most people here dont, worth remembering when comparing
went too fast once
held there too
what did SELECT actually measure, i see it quoted for everything
$38 a month for compounded against what brand costs locally is why most people here use vials
the long half life flattens the trough more than people expect, i never felt a day seven dip
how did people handle the jump from 1 to 1.7
changed my mind on the four week rule, i think it depends entirely on how the current dose feels, still working it out
unrelated but brand vs compounded, is there a difference people can actually feel
five week steps worked better for me than four, purely on how the second week felt
ok so held at 12 and lost 38lb over 17 months, slower than the trials and fine by me, happy to be corrected
does anyone actually run a five week step instead of four
i dont think the plateau is a dose problem most of the time, but i cant prove that
