Does anyone else stay at 0.5mg longer than the standard schedule?

I've been doing a weekly log in this thread and several people have asked me to keep going so here's month 3 update: down 31 lbs from 278 to 247. Lost about 3-4 lbs per month after the fast initial drop. Stalled for 2 weeks at month 2.5 and it broke on its own. Energy is better. Sleep is better. Still on 0.5mg and my doctor wants to see me stay here another month.

Congrats! That first 25 lbs is the hardest because you're still figuring everything out.

My pharmacist suggested splitting the dose in half for the first 4 weeks. Life-changing.
