[Meta] the Wegovy rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining
Housekeeping: the Wegovy rule is doing its job and people should stop complaining. STEP-1 ran 68 weeks and landed just under 15% mean body weight change on 2.4mg. It is an average of a wide distribution, not a target you have missed. Research-use-only material is not approved for human use, so anything in this thread…
Delayed gastric emptying is most pronounced early and attenuates with continued dosing, which is why the reflux usually fades at a stable dose.
That reads like a titration plan and this board cannot give you one. Somebody who actually knows your history has to.
Minor fix — the half-life is about a week, not about a day. The rest of your point stands.
Cosigning. The appetite change and the scale change ran about three weeks apart for me too.
What dose and how many weeks at it before this started?

Correcting myself from earlier in the thread: I said week 4 and it was week 13. Same shape, wrong number.
This matches me almost exactly, right down to the muscle cramps showing up on the second day and being gone by the fourth.
Disagree. 2.4 is the top of the label, not the goal, and "everyone ends up there" is just survivorship in the posts you read.
Kept a log from week one and the single most useful column turned out to be waist, not weight.
