the appetite return question that gets asked weekly, answered properly
the appetite return question that gets asked weekly, answered properly. It is the sort of thing everyone half-believes and nobody writes down. Stopped for cost reasons. Appetite came back at about week 13, well before the scale moved, exactly as this board said it would. Wrote down where I was before changing…
Agreed. Appetite is the leading indicator and the scale is the lagging one. Watch the first, not the second.
the habits are what has to carry it afterwards
Right, and the habits from the losing phase are the part that has to outlive the dose.
Have you had the conversation with a clinician yet?
Correction: that study measured regain after discontinuation, not loss of effect during treatment. Very different findings.
Push back: that is a taper schedule aimed at another member and this board does not host those.
