[Results] 26 weeks, 9kg, and dual agonist was the hard part
26 weeks, 9kg, and dual agonist was the hard part. Full detail below, and I have tried to keep the editorialising out of it. To save the first four comments: 26 weeks and 9kg. Appetite effect for me is flat across seven days. On sema it was a wave. Same person, different molecule. The thing nobody warned me about was…
Yes. I stepped to 12.5 because the calendar said so, not because anything needed fixing, and I regretted it for a fortnight.
Small fix: SURMOUNT is the obesity programme, SURPASS is the type-2 programme. They are different endpoints and the numbers do not transfer.
Correction to my own post above — I said 12.5mg and I have been on 12.5mg since the spring. Same argument, wrong number.
hold the dose that works, the ladder is not a leaderboard
pens and vials are the same molecule, the price is the difference
the appetite effect is blunter than sema, in a good way, most weeks
Sulphur burps for the first eight days after each step, then nothing. Predictable enough that I planned my week around it.
sulphur burps are the signature complaint and they are not dangerous
the four-week step schedule is the label, not folklore
