[Vendor] WXT order #13 — the Netherlands, 15 days, no drama, receipts inside

Results Sourced ×4 Slow Clap ×3 The Quiet One ×3

Confession thread, sort of.

I went from 0.5mg to 12.5mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 21 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 muscle cramps I did not need and a data point I cannot interpret. Two lessons in one.

Posting it in the hope that somebody at week 29 reads it before doing the same thing.

Which country? Half the answers in this thread only apply in Australia.

interval stretching versus dose reduction

Yeah, regain is not a failure.

The the food-noise thing was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

the regain is treatment of chronic condition ending, not failure

Genuine question — what concentration were you at?

u/piotr_bruun132 points·1 year ago

Mechanistically the bit that matters is regain. It explains most of the early profile and a decent chunk of the outcome.

The confident tone is doing a lot of work that the evidence is not.

Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

The early fullness was genuinely awful for three weeks and then simply stopped. I know that is not useful information, but it is what happened.

appetite return timelines vary discontinuation

regain on taper is expected, plan for it

About c/tapering

Stopping on purpose: dose reduction versus interval stretching, what the discontinuation arms of STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-4 actually showed about regain, appetite return timelines, and the people who came off, regained, and went back on without treating it as a failure.
