[Meta] proposal — a flair for discontinuation posts

Trial Data Cold Box ×2

Right, the regain question again, but with numbers this time.

I have 21 data points over 8 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.

The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 69, not week 23. People give up long before the interesting part.

Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.

Maintenance for 21 months now. Weight moves within about 3kg and the dose is a quarter of what it peaked at.

You have restated the marketing copy. What is the actual substance here.

cite the discontinuation data rather than guessing regain rates

Adding to this: interval stretching is doing more work than the comment implies.

Counter-anecdote: opposite result, same dose. Which mostly tells us the variance is huge.

This is correct. Discontinuation data is real.

regain on taper is expected, plan for it

About c/tapering

Stopping on purpose: dose reduction versus interval stretching, what the discontinuation arms of STEP 1 and SURMOUNT-4 actually showed about regain, appetite return timelines, and the people who came off, regained, and went back on without treating it as a failure.
