Forum talk and the trial results are often pretty different. Around here it's mostly the smallest dose that does the job, for losing and for keeping it off. That cuts side effects but also caps the benefits, and it leads to constant posts asking why a tiny dose isn't cutting it. I think the evidence backs sticking with the dose you lost on. Long follow-ups of sema and tirz held weight steady as long as 4 years on the same dose, no drift in either direction until the trial ended and the drug stopped, and then it came back fast. Had the dose been too high, people would've kept losing, too low and they'd have gained, and neither happened. That's strong proof from big well-run trials, so the maintenance dose is just the weight loss dose.
