genuine question about goal weight that I am slightly embarrassed to ask
genuine question about goal weight that I am slightly embarrassed to ask. I would rather ask a basic question now than get this wrong quietly for two months. Interval stretching changes the exposure profile: with a week-long half-life, moving to ten or twelve days lowers trough concentration more than it lowers…
Withdrawal studies in this class consistently show substantial regain after discontinuation. That is a pharmacological finding about a chronic condition, not a statement about anyone’s discipline.
maintenance is where the logistics finally get boring, which is the point
Yes. The habits have to outlive the dose or the maintenance phase is just a countdown.

Disagreeing with this bit: a two-kilo range is not drift and treating it as a problem creates one.

Small fix — you have described interval stretching and called it a dose reduction. The exposure profiles differ.
maintenance is a phase, not a finish line
Maintenance is the phase with the least published guidance and the most individual variation, which is precisely why board consensus here is worth less than usual.
Wrote down what maintenance would look like at about week 64, before I needed it. Having decided in advance made the transition boring.
Right — appetite returns before the scale moves, which is the early signal people miss.
