Sizing help

I’m 5’2 and about 155 pounds. I started out in an xl in figs at about 190. I plan on losing a bit more weight but I’m not sure how much or how fast. But my current XL are huge. They’re struggling to stay on and just overall big on me. Should I size down one size to a large or go smaller and get a medium? Thanks!

Shoes

How do we feel about the shoes? I’m debating trying them instead of another pair of hokas to replace a worn out pair but I’m scared they won’t survive 12s

Starting dose? Increasing dose?

I started Reta in February, I’m down almost 40 pounds and I’ve felt great on it besides a few weeks I felt like the dose hit really hard and food made me feel really awful.

I started on 2mgs weekly and I’ve stayed there for the most part. I played with lower doses a few times when I felt like I wasn’t eating enough. I typically notice my appetite increase around day 5-6. No “food noise” but I feel hungrier then. The last couple of weeks I’m noticing that by day 4 or so my appetite is increasing and the food noise is back by day 5-6. I’m wondering if I should up my dosage now and hope it’ll kick the increased appetite or should I just focus on eating protein and keep the dose where it is?
I’ve struggled with eating enough and staying hydrated because I genuinely haven’t had an appetite the bulk of the time. For reference I’m 43, 5’2 started at 204 and currently 166. I haven’t honestly done much at all by way of working out (just graduated nursing school and I’ve worked while in school plus have kids etc so time was short) but I plan to bump that up as soon as I can. Which should hopefully only be a couple weeks away. So….should I bump up my dosage? 2.5? 3? Keep it the same and focus on food quality and protein? Add weights? Add cardio?

Thanks for any suggestions
