Skipped doses and still working?

I'm at goal now and the last few weeks the scale has slowed to about half a pound to one pound per week. My plan is to stay on 5 mg tirz split plus 5 mg of the other compound and simply eat more, which I've started doing. I was barely losing when intake was low. I want to see what happens to weight when calories go up at the same dose. I don't know the right approach, but keeping the medication effects in place while adding food feels safer to me than easing off the medication and risking rapid regain.

Remember the half-life and how the compound builds up. It has about a five-day half-life, so after fourteen days there is still some left from earlier doses that adds to the appetite suppression. I would lower to 5 mg and plan meals in advance to work around the reduced appetite while adjusting to the new metabolic rate.

Maybe it's similar to muscle memory and the body keeps doing what it learned before. Being able to eat at maintenance without regaining would be ideal for most people.

That matches what I've seen. Staying on the medication means the appetite control stays strong and doesn't disappear right after missing a week. Waiting for actual food noise before moving to 5 mg for maintenance makes sense, but don't let under-eating continue too long in the meantime. Getting enough protein and doing some training can help avoid feeling drained.

I took time off the other compound once I reached 200 lb to check appetite response and give my system a break. The same thing happened: dropping from 20 mg per week down to 8 mg produced no rebound hunger. I restarted at 8 mg and later returned to 20 mg along with 2.5 mg tirz and 1 mg of another medication. Sleep got better and I felt more relaxed, which makes me look forward to maintenance in another ten pounds or so.

Maybe just pause and stay off until the food noise comes back so you can get used to eating a little more.
