7.5 gang

- surpass_two — does switching from semaglutide need a gap or do you just start 17:55
- vat_on_import — switched from 1 semaglutide and started at 2.5, took the slow route, never regretted it, ymmv the switch felt like a step down at first and then caught up around week… 18:00
- vat_on_import — 5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me, from memory 19:07
- salt_bridge — if youre coming off semaglutide the honest answer is start low and find out, theres no table, i have it written down somewhere 20:16
while im here licensed top is 15 weekly, past that is not a licensed dose and nobody here can tell you what it does
the two compounds arent interchangeable week for week even if the effect ends up similar, i could be wrong
5 did nothing
did anyone go past 15 and was there any point to it
15 is the top
how did people handle the 2.5 to 5 jump
GI was noticeably easier for me than semaglutide at what felt like the same appetite effect
GIP plus GLP-1
held 10 for 14 months and lost 27kg over that stretch, slow and boring and fine
checked the units twice
the sweet spot argument is really about effect per side effect, not a magic number, ask me again in a month
start low anyway
is SURMOUNT-OSA the sleep apnoea one
40 units of a 5 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time
at 1 my appetite is gone entirely, did anyone go down rather than up
SURMOUNT-1 versus SURPASS-2, which one was the weight trial
easier gi for me
does switching from semaglutide need a gap or do you just start
coming off semaglutide, is there a conversion or do i restart at 2.5
switched from 1 semaglutide and started at 2.5, took the slow route, never regretted it, ymmv
the switch felt like a step down at first and then caught up around week 29
does the appetite effect feel different or just stronger
back after 7 months, do i restart at 2.5 or pick up near where i left off
10 was enough
why does everyone talk about 7.5 and not 10
5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me, from memory
ok so whats the plateau pattern here, same as semaglutide or different
folklore probably
at 2 my appetite went completely and i dropped back a step, eating nothing isnt a win
12 did nothing extra over 10 for me and that still holds a year later
how long before the dual thing was noticeable to you
if youre coming off semaglutide the honest answer is start low and find out, theres no table, i have it written down somewhere
the sweet spot thing is survivorship, the people it worked for stayed and said so
no clean conversion
does the GIP arm actually explain the easier nausea or is that hand waving
the switch felt like a step down at first and then caught up around week 24
went back to semaglutide after 2 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI
