Bathroom self level transition woes. Help?

Relatively new to this so figured I would ask a group that may know better than me. Im working on remodeling my bathroom. all set to go and noticed the floor is pretty unlevel. From threshold to back wall it dips in the center by .5 inches then raises and inch from the dip to the back wall where the tub will be. So the back wall is .5 inches higher than the threshold. Left to right its flat as can be as it is the direction of the trusses. I was going to just use self leveler but after doing the math (may be wrong) Im coming out to .5 inches of self level at the threshold. Then add the tile and 3mm membrane on top of that, prob gonna be over an inch step up. I would prefer to have as little transition as possible. Honestly not sure why the bathroom is so wavy. House was built in 1999 and has webbed trusses throughout. I just dont know if its possible for me to level with subtraction to lower the transition with webbed trusses. Any input would be great. I dove into this thinking it would be a good learning experience. Well im learning. HAHAHA. submitted by /u/The_Durpy_T [link] [comments]
