I'm not exaggerating
In the withdrawal trial, continuing preserved loss far better than switching to placebo, which regained about 14% over a year. The metabolic benefit fades in proportion to the weight regained, so a taper plus protein and resistance training beats a hard stop
If you are using low-dead-space syringes (designed for insulin), the loss is minimal and typically not worth worrying about
