Looking ahead to the future, for those of you that hit target and titrate back down, how long did you spend at each dose on the way back down again?

I've heard one provider suggests 3 months on each step down but that seems excessive, just wondering what people tend to do in reality

Someone on Reddit told me to do an extra month at the current dose when I hit goal, whilst slowly increasing my cals each week, so I did this, I was on ten, after 4 weeks I moved to 7.5, which is really just a half a dose difference, and I did that for 4 weeks, and am now on 5 for the last month, where I will now stay for maintenance. My appetite is still suppressed, I’m eating to maintenance, and no desire to over eat, snack etc,

At my maintenance consultation, my provider oushk just said to titrate down very slowly, at the time i was 4lbs off my intial target of 10st, so didn't ask how often to go down as i was still trying to lose.
2 weeks ago i hit 9st 11lbs when the price increases came out, I decided to taper down faster than originally, when i was planning a pen a month, as I managed to get 2 x 10mg pens and had a 15 in fridge. I did go up to 15 but that was super strong so wanted to cone down anyway. I've done a 12.5 and 12 so far, then will drop to 11 and then around 10 x 4. Then with my 10mg pens will go down further to 5mg, where I may stay on it depends how I feel with hunger and food noise and maintenance calories etc. I've still lost 1.5lbs when tapering down 2 weeks.
