I'm thinking of taking a break for a few weeks and starting again at a lower dose. Has anyone done this? How long did you come off before strating over? How did it go? Did it jump start your losses?

What dose are you on? I would do at least 4 weeks but are you looking at everything? Are you looking at your diet and getting enough protein. How many calories are you eating? Are you having supression?
