How slow is too slow on titration?

I plateaued until the dose increase kicked things back in gear.

52 lbs at a slow pace says the answer is no, there's no such thing as too slow if it's working. I'm barely 2 lbs in and happy to stretch my steps out as long as the appetite stays quiet. Speed through the schedule doesn't earn you anything extra.

52 lbs is proof the slow lane works. I'm 29 down and still lingering on my current step because the appetite quieting hasn't faded yet -- when it does, that's my cue to move up, not the calendar.

Everyone titrates differently, listen to your own body. Wishing you an easy week ahead.

Reply three really covers it honestly — bodies don't care about calendars anyway. At 56 pounds myself, some of those kept coming off weeks where I'd stalled worse before slowing things way down, so moving gently has cost me nothing except maybe smaller bumps climbing each level.

Slower has worked fine for me too -- I sat at 5mg way longer than the schedule suggested because the suppression was still doing its job, and the step up to 7.5 hit me way milder than friends who rushed it. If you're down 52 lbs, whatever pace you're on is clearly the right one for you.

52 lbs is proof the slow lane works, no question. I'm only 9 lbs in so far but I already stretched my first step way past the suggested window because the appetite quieting was still strong, and I'd rather trade speed for skipping the rough jumps. Seems like the calendar matters a lot less than people assume.
