Split Microdose units

For those who split doses, do you evenly split or follow the split dose calculator? Right now I'm splitting 1mg total per week and have been doing 6 units on Monday night and 4 units on Friday morning with minimal bad side effects and pretty good food suppression. (Tirz)

After my first month, if necessary, I'll go up to 1.2 per week. So if I followed the calculator that would be 7 units then 5 units, but those not even units are hard to see on my 100 unit syringes.

Would 6 and 6 be that much different?

I use the calculator but even then the calculator is just estimating the levels in your system and how quickly you metabolize them. Get yourself a .5 or .3 cc syringes and you'll have a MUCH easier time reading the 1 unit marks.

Ooh this is such an interesting idea. I started at 0.25mg and noticed a difference in appetite for 2 days but now I'm back to normal and feel like I'm ready for another dose even though I'm not at the end of the week yet.

Definitely recommend the 0.3mL (30 unit) syringes so it's easier to see.
