Hello everyone!! I want to start off by saying I could kiss everyone here. I learned so much from this sub on how to start this journey safely. I really love you guysss

Anyways on the reason why I’m writing this! I started my Reta journey at my highest weight which is 210lbs and as of today I am 182lbs, after 2 months of Reta!!! I haven’t seen this number in like 2 years I was always 198-195. My real goal was 180 but I just had to post after seeing 182 since I didn’t expect it today, but without a doubt I’ll see 180 in the next couple days.

My new goal is 165lbs, see you guys soon once that’s reached!!! With so pictures this time 😉😉

Love you beautiful people, MUAHHHHH 💋💋💋💋

I’m 21 now only just found out I had ADHD couple months ago, with speculation of autism but I haven’t been tested yet.

When I was around 9 years old I came home from school and really needed to pee, I didn’t have my key, and my dad was on his way home like usual but instead of waiting for him outside I took a rock broke the glass of the door window to get inside.

When we would go out to social environments I would cry every time . No one wanted to take me anymore and it just got worse. Even when I was in my teen years, though I got better at hiding it.

I would always pee my pants in public. Then I became the family joke because of it and it got worse.

I would also bet wet every night until I was around 12-13, but I still bet wetted occasionally until the age of 15.

Never closing cabinets, every time I entered the kitchen all the cabinets would be left open. I still do this, my family always yelled at me for it.

There’s so much more. Now I really wonder how no one knew.

I’m 21F, and my friend is 20F. We’ve been friends since third year of high school. She’s always been a heavy weed smoker and alcohol drinker, even before high school. I never got into that because I don’t like the feeling of being under the influence.

I moved out of the city at 19, and we kind of drifted apart. It felt like I was always the one making the effort to keep the friendship alive (she could literally go a year without reaching out), until she found out that my sister married into an extremely rich family and that I was benefiting from it. After that, she suddenly “locked in” and started putting in effort, inviting me on trips I used to only find out about through Snapchat.

She’s a bit of an opportunist. She doesn’t work and wants men to fund her life.

She’s also always dating other people’s boyfriends. She did it to me in high school, and right now her new man is literally her friend’s boyfriend—they hadn’t even broken up before she swooped in. Her excuse was, “The girl was annoying, always talking about him.” The guy she stole is also a drug dealer. She’s always dating drug dealers.

What I didn’t know until recently is that she’s also a frequent drug user.

She used to joke about maybe taking one pill to get through tattoo pain, but recently she’s been seriously talking about getting Molly and Percs from people. When her man gives her too much for free, she’ll either sell it to people at the club where she works if she needs extra cash, or she’ll just take it all herself.

I recently moved again, this time to the most popular city in my country. Now, all of a sudden, she wants to come visit me—even though she never visited when I lived in my previous city for two years, and those two cities are literally right next to each other. Now she wants to come stay with me.

I love hearing about all her drama because, honestly, it’s interesting, but I don’t want that drama around me. I’m not interested in being around someone who chooses to surround herself with drug dealers and all of that.

I’m young and like to have fun, but that doesn’t mean I should be taking heavy drugs. I’ll drink and maybe take an edible for fun, but that’s where it stops for me.

She’s also extremely male-centered—the type of girl who will sleep with two or even three men in the same day. I’m not exaggerating; she tells me this stuff. I’m just not like that.

I can be friends with her from afar, but I have no interest in hanging around her or having her in my space. She looks trashy, and I honestly feel terrible saying that. I’m not trying to act like a pick-me. I go to clubs too, wear micro shorts, drink, and have fun—but I have limits and boundaries about what I will and won’t do.

Please tell me I’m not wrong for wanting to cut her off.

I increased my reta dose to 3mg this past Tuesday. At first shit was calm shit was sweet, but unfortunately for me, shit got REALLL this morning. This shit is so bad I’m afraid my toilet may ask to end his lease early.

I’m only happy cause I’ve seen some people say that’s when the weight really starts to drop, and because the diarrhea isn’t the type that hurts your stomach BUTTT! UnfortuMotherfuckingly this is the type of diarrhea that doesn’t wait for you to reach the toilet, if it wants to come out it’ll come out! The amount of times I’ve had to sprint to the bathroom. I’m TYAADD

A warning would’ve been nice guys 🫪🫪

- From my toilet to yours 🥴🤞🏾💋

I’ve been on Reta for over a week. So far so good feeling the appetite suppression and feeling less bloated. But, I have lots of PTSD/trauma, stress & just overall shit to deal with. I don’t have anyone to talk to about my situation and my way of coping was through food but now that that’s out of the way I’m not sure what to do with myself. I find myself crying a lot more and overall feeling emotions that I usually avoided feeling. I have no interest to drink alcohol, although I was never a big drinker I could do if I was really stressed. it’s like it’s grouped all the bad habits and slapped a big Danger sign on it.

Reta is quite literally helping me with my Mental health, by making deal with my emotions instead of pushing them aside.

Kindle unlimited book recommendations. Please, little to no romance books (unless it’s really THAT good), don’t get me wrong I love them but I just ended things with my ex and kind of hating men right now. Plus, I’ve just read far to many books with the same damn plot

Just some good books that don’t involve some smart, pretty, skinny girl that falls in love with some rich CEO or some good, smart girl with a bright future & an hourglass figure that falls in love with a “bad boy”.

I’m tireddd I want a good read!!!

Thank you, kisses 💋💋💋

Like genuinely am tired of myself, everyday I’m fighting myself to stay here. I genuinely just don’t want to be in this world anymore. I wish I didn’t feel this way. I wish things were different. I don’t know how to explain to my sister that I’m not choosing this. I’ve tried therapy I’ve tried moving twice I don’t understand why I am the way I am. Lots of stuff happened in my dad’s house with him and my step mom and after I moved out at 16 I was never the same like i genuinely just can’t find joy in anything any more. I want to change so bad I do. I want to be normal I swear to God I do but i don’t know how. I’m so desperate I’m willing to try anything at this point.

This the message my sister sent me, the only person that I manage to speak to.

“Anyways (my name), I’ve spoken to you about this multiple times already. Whether it be with her or anyone else. I’m tired, I also feel hurt for everyone that youre doing this to that don’t deserve this. This will cause me to also distance myself with you because I don’t agree with how you treat everyone. Your mom, (younger sister), Papa, (her bsf). Everyone is always messaging to complain that they reach out to you and you don’t answer. If you want to live your life without these people let them know so they stop trying and leave you alone. It’s that simple instead of making them feel the way you do.”

I don’t know what to do anymore.

Im from Canada and we don't have lots of the restaurants from the states. I recently moved and decided to try some stuff I couldn't try before. I had wingstop and honestly Mid didn't care much for it, THEN I HAD CHIPOTLE! When I tell you my coochie purred after each bite. I've had it twice now and I want it again today help! If I go on like this my bank account will skinnyyyyt this summer but l wontttt!!! I should've stayed curious 😞😞😞😞
