- karl_fischer — ok so plateaued at 19 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific 40 units of a 8 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice… 20:54
- batch_bandit — i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did 21:25
- no_appetite_nia — did anyone find the GI easier than semaglutide at an equivalent effect 21:39
- protein_floor — SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up 21:46
- protein_floor — quick one whats the top licensed dose, 15 or does it go higher i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did 21:50
coming off semaglutide, is there a conversion or do i restart at 2.5
GI was noticeably easier for me than semaglutide at what felt like the same appetite effect
5 was where i first noticed it properly, 2.5 did almost nothing for me
anyone tracked whether the GI difference held at the top doses
anyone stopped at 10 and stayed there for months
did going from 10 semaglutide to 5 of this feel like a step down for anyone
titrate slow
at 15 the GI came back for me, so my easier profile claim only applies below that
ok so plateaued at 19 weeks the same way i did on semaglutide, so i doubt its compound specific
40 units of a 8 solution is a lot of volume and i check that one twice every single time
wk 1-4 2.5mg
wk 5-8 5.0mg
wk 9-20 7.5mg <- stayed here
wk 21-24 10.0mg (no extra benefit for me)
wk 25+ 7.5mg (came back down)folklore probably
i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did
12 did nothing extra over 10 for me and that still holds a year later, happy to be corrected
start low anyway
anyone got a 8 recon they like for the 20 vials
did anyone find the GI easier than semaglutide at an equivalent effect
went back to semaglutide after 10 months because the cost difference mattered more than the GI
i sat at 7.5 for 11 months and never needed more, which is where the folklore comes from
SURMOUNT was the weight programme and SURPASS was diabetes, thats the split people mix up
is SURMOUNT-OSA the sleep apnoea one
quick one whats the top licensed dose, 15 or does it go higher
i log everything and my appetite curve looks flatter across the week than my semaglutide log did
