Fat loss + Muscle gain
Hello! I’m a 33 yo male and I work as an international flight attendant, so my sleep schedule is pretty unconventional.
I started my journey weighing around 190 lbs with a typical skinny-fat physique, carrying most of my fat around my midsection. I’ve been lifting 3–4x/week for the past few months, and have developed some good definition in my arms, shoulders, chest and legs.
I started Retatrutide 3 weeks ago, currently at 2.5 mg weekly, and I’m already seeing great fat-loss results, especially around my midsection. I started MOTS-c 2 weeks ago (2.5 mg 2x/week) but haven’t noticed much from it yet.
My goal is to continue to lose fat and gain muscle mass while optimizing my health and energy.
I’ve been researching peptides but honestly find the whole space pretty overwhelming. There are so many compounds being discussed for fat loss, muscle, energy, skin, longevity, etc.
For people with similar goals, what peptides have actually been worth it for you? Which ones are overhyped or unnecessary?
I’m not looking to throw 10 peptides into the mix—I’d rather understand what actually makes sense and add things gradually.
