What dose are you maintaining on?

[BlueLimes]

And what dose did you need to go up to?

I’ve 4lbs to go, been a slow loser, needed to go up to 15mg which I’ve been on since July and really been bumping around the same weight since then.

Interested in opinions/ experiences - thanks !!

@BlueLimes Is it definitely fat or could it be loose skin? I think mine is a little of both. I look fine in normal clothes. But in tight fitting gym clothes my lower belly definitely looks disproportionate. Above the belly button my waist looks small, but the lower bit has a bit of an overhang/tiny apron which just looks hideous and pokes out.

Definitely fat - there’s a lot 😔 half a stone might do if.
I don’t get much suppression even at 15mg, but I’ll keep going.

I’m maintaining on 5mg. I hit goal the other month and 5mg seems to be the sweet spot in that I have hunger but takes edge off. I have no idea how long to stay on maintenance before moving down. I want to come off but the idea of coming off is too scary atm. I keep pushing the goalposts… in my original plan I was supposed to be off now.

I am maintaining at 0.83 once a week so a genuine microdose. I eat more or less normally with calorie counting to 1600 cals and daily exercise but I feel like the benefits are still there especially as I am perimenopausal.

One pen lasts me about 15 weeks and I keep in the fridge and am religiously cleaning the seal before use. I have contemplated going up to a 5mg pen and making it last double the time I’m not bothered about the length of time from opening but piercing the rubber seal 30 times is probably a bit too much.

How do you buy pens so infrequently?

I’ve got a little stockpile now so looking to move to a maintenance provider so I can order when I need it but with criteria changing all the time I suspect it will become less rigid to get as time goes on.
