regain

Explainer, as requested in the last thread: interval stretching is not what most of this community thinks it is. Regained most of it over a year and spent that year…

Check-in as promised in the title: 23 months in and interval stretching is still the thing I get wrong. The relevant figures are 23 months, and they come from the same…

Check-in as promised in the title: anyone else notice regain kicking in around week 20. There is very little published guidance on stopping specifically, which is…

the interval stretching thing finally clicked for me and I want to write it down — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested. Regained most of it over a…

Asking properly rather than in a comment on somebody else’s thread: how much of what we believe about interval stretching actually comes from tapering threads. A…

switched from 5mg to 10mg and nausea got better, not worse. Making the case below, and I expect to lose some of it in the comments. Pulling the figures out of the…

Noticing a lot of regain posts use "relapse", borrowed pretty directly from addiction/recovery language. Genuinely asking whether that framing helps or hurts here — on…

two years in, stopped for financial reasons, regained most of it, and the part I actually want to talk about is at the bottom. Went up too fast because the scale had…

Posting this as a discussion rather than a claim: lowest effective dose is doing more work than we give it credit for. On stopping, since it is the question underneath…

Slightly embarrassed to be asking this, but: how long were you on before you tapered. Interval stretching lowers the trough concentration while keeping the dose; dose…

switched from 7.5mg to 10mg and injection-site soreness got better, not worse. Making the case below, and I expect to lose some of it in the comments. Pulling the…

reading goal weight threads from 2024 and half of it aged badly — a position I have arrived at slowly and would like tested. Appetite returning before the scale moves…

See SURMOUNT-4 cited a lot in tapering discussions, often slightly wrong, so here's my attempt at describing what the withdrawal arm actually showed rather than the…

does regain actually matter or is it forum lore at this point. Searched first, found three threads that contradict each other, hence the post. The habits from the…

Check-in as promised in the title: 4kg back over a year and i am calling that a win. 4kg. Those are measured, not estimated, and not rounded up in my favour. None of…

does goal weight actually matter or is it forum lore at this point. Searched first, found three threads that contradict each other, hence the post. Been at maintenance…

can we stop arguing about regain until somebody posts a number. I would rather ask a basic question now than get this wrong quietly for two months. Stopped abruptly…

the goal weight rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining, and here is what changes in practice if it goes ahead. Stretched from seven to ten days and…

Reporting in. came off deliberately over four months, regained 4kg not 24. The relevant figures are 4kg, and they come from the same log I have kept the whole time. The…

The title is the whole question — lowest effective dose — what am I missing here — but here is why I am asking. Withdrawal studies in this class consistently show…

switched from 5mg to 12.5mg and food noise got better, not worse. I have gone back and forth on this for months. The relevant figures are 5mg and 12.5mg, and they come…

Reporting in. 15 weeks on 0.25mg, full numbers, ask me anything boring. 15 weeks and 0.25mg. Those are measured, not estimated, and not rounded up in my favour.…

the goal weight advice in here is 2 years out of date, which sounds obvious until you try to state the evidence for it. Pulling the figures out of the title: 2 years.…

19 months at maintenance. the interesting part starts after the loss stops. Not a hot take, just something I have not seen said plainly here. The relevant figures are…

Slightly embarrassed to be asking this, but: what the STEP 4 and SURMOUNT-4 withdrawal arms actually showed. The habits are what carried it for a while. When they…
