[Question] how do you actually verify goal weight
Genuine question, and the title is the question: how do you actually verify goal weight. Stretched from seven to ten days and then to twelve over about four months. Appetite told me where the limit was before the scale did. Been at maintenance for 12 months on 0.25mg. Nothing happens. That is the whole report and it…
Agreed. Lowest effective dose is the actual maintenance question and it gets almost no airtime next to the escalation threads.
Not convinced. Interval stretching changes your exposure profile, not just the total, and the two are not equivalent.
Not convinced.
Agreed — and appetite is the leading indicator. The scale is the lagging one.
the habits are the part that has to outlive the dose
do not chase the last two kilos with a dose increase
the goal weight you picked at week 1 was a guess
What is the plan if the drift continues for another month?
stretching the interval is not the same as reducing the dose
Drifted up 19kg over a winter and panicked. It came back off without any change, which is apparently just what weight does.

This reframing is the most useful thing on the board for anyone approaching this phase.

Adding one thing — decide what maintenance looks like before you arrive at it.
