[Discussion] we are measuring goal weight at the wrong time and calling it noise
we are measuring goal weight at the wrong time and calling it noise. I have gone back and forth on this for months. What maintenance actually looks like, from the people on this board who have been in it longest. You find a dose or an interval that holds the weight with side effects you barely notice, and then you…
Maintenance is the phase with the least published guidance and the most individual variation, which is precisely why board consensus here is worth less than usual.
Right — appetite returns before the scale moves, which is the early signal people miss.
No taper schedules for other members. Describe yours, do not prescribe it.
stretching the interval is not the same as reducing the dose
monthly weigh-ins are enough at this stage
That reads like a taper schedule and this board cannot hand those out.
