I held an extra week at one point mostly because I was still a bit queasy and didn't want to stack more on top of it. The appetite coming back is what finally pushed me up.
Bumping up today - talk me through it?
I noticed the appetite creeping back around day 5 too, that was my cue each time. Holding a bit longer never seemed to cost me anything.
Day 5 hunger creeping back was my cue too, though I sat on 0.75 longer than I planned mostly because refills were a hassle here in Memphis.
Did the appetite creep hit you in the evenings too? Mine always showed up after dinner, which is how I knew I was due
tbh my climb was mostly because the food noise came back hard around day 4, not because of any schedule. Curious whether yours is more appetite or just impatience to get moving
I stayed put an extra week because the appetite quiet was still holding most of the week. When it started thinning out by day four or five I figured the dose had run its course.
I held at 1mg a few extra weeks in Louisville because I was still losing and the side effects were mild. For me the tell was waking up hungry on day 6 instead of day 5, weirdly specific but it was consistent.
How many days in are you when it fades? Mine was day 5 or 6 and that told me more than the calendar did.
What tipped it for me was noticing the food noise come back a couple days before my next shot. That was my cue, not the calendar
I knew it was time when the food noise came back around day 6 and I was still losing steadily. The jump itself was pretty uneventful for me.
I held at each step until the appetite quiet came back a few days before my next shot, then moved up. Going slow like that meant the jump never really hit me.
I held an extra week when I wasn't sure, mostly because the side effects from my last bump hadn't fully settled yet. That extra week cost me nothing.
What tipped it for me was noticing the food noise creeping back a couple days before my next shot, that was my signal i had room to move. 36 down and still climbing slow over here
honestly, i held at each step until the food noise came back near the end of the week, not just on day seven. That was my signal, and it kept the rough days pretty rare for me.
I held at 10 for about six weeks past when the food noise came back, mostly because I was scared of the jump. Turned out the extra time just meant more weeks of white-knuckling it.
What made me finally move up was the food noise coming back on days 6 and 7
How's your day 6 and 7 feeling right now? That was the only thing that ever told me anything useful, and mine stayed quiet for weeks past when I thought I was ready
I held an extra week and regretted nothing. For me the tell was portion sizes creeping back up at dinner, not any number on the pen.
honestly, i knew it was time when the food noise came back mid-week, not just a random hungry afternoon. If it's still quiet by day five or six i'd sit tight a bit longer.
When did hunger actually come back for you, day 5 or closer to day 7? That gap is the only thing I've used to decide, and mine showed up way earlier than I expected on my last step up.
