help me understand first time, I have read the wiki twice
Confession thread, sort of.
I went from 0.25mg to 10mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 16 weeks later, at which point I had no way of knowing whether the dose increase did anything or whether it would have broken anyway.
So now I have injection-site soreness I did not need and a data point I cannot interpret. Two lessons in one.
Posting it in the hope that somebody at week 78 reads it before doing the same thing.
best — the order this archive was captured in
Crossposting this to c/meta because the people who need it are not reading this community.
Flair changed to match the content. Read the sidebar before posting next time and we are square.
The first time question took me three weeks to understand. Wiki explained it eventually.
is this normal week 7 — yes, probably
is this normal week 22 — yes, probably
is this normal week 22 — yes, probably
Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 28 weeks to accept.
Week 14 checking in: nothing on the scale, no nausea, wondering if the pen is broken. No, it is just week 14.
This is the "correlation is mechanism" thing again. You changed three variables at once.
pens versus vials, same molecule, different price
no question too basic, read the wiki first, then ask anyway
no dose recommendations for individuals, even here
week two nothing happening — yes, that is normal
You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.
what is titration — it means going slow on the escalation
what is bac water — bacteriostatic water, preservative included
