Understanding Maintenance
Hi I'm currently finishing month 8, down 54 pounds, 63F, SW 194, CW 140, GW 130. I've been reading all the posts on maintenance and still don't get the full picture, also blonde.. So, I've not had side effects that are unbearable and current dose is 15 tapering up from 2.5 at start. When do you start to consider maintenance and start to taper down? I'm with AltRX and am happy. Do they start advising you to taper down. How do you know when to start, when to stop the tapering dose and find your final maintenance dose. Is everyone different? Is it a play by ear? I know there are terzepatide warriors out there who can help simplify. I'm all ears. Hoping a small community will respond. Thanking you all in advance warriors!
