Lipo C 120 flare ups

Hey guys!
Is it only me? Does anyone here using LiPo-C and noticed flare up of eczema?
I had it before when I was young and on my teen days but it is long gone and never come back in a decade. But after using LipoC it flares up and when I stop using it the eczema slowly fades and heal.

Is this means, no matter what type of Lipo C I use it will come back? I am planning to switch to LC216 or LC526 as I am loving the result but not the side effect of this small small bumps in my skin😩
Please give me advice?

5 WEEKS ON R3TA

Update on my journey I guess lol (didn’t update the 4th since nothing much happened buut here’s week 4 and 5. My current dose is 2mg btw.

  1. Weight loss is definitely there, lost 5kg in 5 weeks! I have been spot on with my nutrition, training, and even my 7-10k steps. Never felt this good.

  2. idk if it’s placebo or an effect of RETA to my insulin sensitivity BUT, my recovery during workouts are so much better. I lift fairly heavy weights (I bench 80kgx6 on a flat press) and my energy remains stable throughout any workouts.

  3. No more LBM now, I keep track of my fiber intake, I take probiotics, and stay away from oil as much as I can which has definitely improved my gut experience LOL.

  4. Here come’s the cons, I unfortunately have 0 appetite suppression now, all good tho kasi reta is still aiding with my weight loss, scale is still going down, planning to remain on 2mg until I plateau.

  5. Another con that I’ve noticed is an energy crash during injection day, I am well aware of RETAs half-life so that’s probably reta just losing effect, just thought I would share. I take extra caffeine during that day to counter the energy crash hahaha.

QUESTION: Should I increase my dose to 3mg next week? Or should I cruise ‘til I hit my plateau, tbh wanna increase but not so sure. Thanks!

ps: I think I’m lowkey getting 4ddict3d to p1nning lol, might try ghk-cu or even hop on after I lose body fat (iykyk).

GKHCU STING

Hi there pepbuddies! It's been 3 weeks since I started using GHKCU and today is the day that I updose from 10 units to 15 units. What i notice is that a few minutes after I injected, i felt this sting that I'm not feeling before i updose. Is this normal? I'm using this with tirzepatide and my purpose is to thicken my hair even a little bit. What is the maximum dose that I can take to have a result in my hair? Kindly comment down below for your experiences. Thank you! (Fyi, I am currently feeling a strong sting 😭)

PCOS + Type 2 Diabetes: Why I switched from Tirz to Reta

I wanted to share my peptide journey because I know a lot of us don’t respond the same way to the same compounds.

Background:
• 39F
• Type 2 Diabetes
• PCOS
• Starting Weight: 86 kg
• Current Weight: 74 kg
• Total peptide journey: 11 months

I started with tirzepatide and honestly thought I had found the answer. Unfortunately, even at the lowest dose, I experienced significant GI side effects, constant fatigue, and struggled to increase my dose. After 3 months, I had only lost about 2 kg and felt pretty discouraged.

I transitioned to retatrutide and the difference was night and day for me.

What I’ve noticed on reta:
• Much better energy levels
• Cravings became manageable
• I can still enjoy food without feeling deprived
• Minimal side effects compared to tirz
• More sustainable long-term

I’ve now been on reta for about 8 months and am down to 74 kg.

Beyond weight loss, I feel healthier overall than I have in years.

Current stack:
• Retatrutide
• NAD+ (3x/week) for energy
• GHK-Cu
• SS-31 (cycled)
• MOTS-c
• 5-Amino-1MQ

A quick disclaimer: I have a medical background as a nurse, have spent a lot of time researching peptides, and have attended peptide-focused seminars. I’m not a physician and this is absolutely not medical advice. I also monitor my health closely and get comprehensive labs every 6 months.

One thing I’m particularly happy about is that my labs, which I follow regularly, are currently within normal ranges. For me, that’s a bigger win than the scale.

I’m still working toward my goals, but for the first time in a long time, I feel like I’m moving in the right direction instead of fighting my body every day.

For those who have tried both tirzepatide and retatrutide:

Did you respond dramatically differently to one versus the other?

And for those using adjunct peptides like NAD+, GHK-Cu, MOTS-c, or SS-31, what changes did you notice that you felt were genuinely worth continuing?

Slow responder or tamad lang 😅

Originally, 84.something ang SW ko. Hndi pa ksi ako nag weigh nung pagkastart ko. Mga more than a week pa bago ko nagstart mag record ng weight ko.

95days in and i only lost about 10kg. Mabagal ba or slow and steady progress? I dont have much time to work out being a mom of 5 and small VA agency owner sobrang busy at halos di ko alam paano ko pagkakasyahin yung oras sa araw ko. But, during work time ko pumipitik ako ng dumbbell exercises mostly para sa arms lang ksi pansin ko napagiiwanan sya. Mej malaki pa din. Although I noticed na mej lumiit din ung face, some belly fats have gone away but not too much, 2 sizes down from XXL to L.

Ako lang ba or need ko na tlaga mag allot pa ng time para sa work out or walking man lang? Any reco walking pad para sa busy career wo-mom like me? Yung cost friendly yet efficient sana.

Im on my 7.5mg 4th week ko na at current dose. Same same ung effect. Every first 2 days halos di talaga makakain but come 4-6th day ayan mej may gana na pero limited prin kasi kusa naman umaayaw na yung tiyan ko.

Anong reco na pwedeng add on? Or reco na workout na hndi sobrang time consuming? Controlled din naman food and I DEF KNOW THIS IS NOT A MAGIC POTION na bglang papayat, thats why im asking what to add or what else to do when on this meds. Feeling ko kasi ang bagal ng progress ko tho aminado na need sabayan ng workouts hence the questions. Wtd?

Also, can someone confirm if mabagal ba progress ko or keri lang? Alsoooo normal ba ung anxiety feeling pag jab day? Ung tipong habang nagreready ka ng syringe parang masusuka ka na. I understand na yung mind ksi inaanticipate yung pain or hirap ng side effects but I am the only one or kayo din? Para sa peace of mind lol

I would appreciate any thoughts or inputs. TIA!

Ano yung current stack niyo with Tirze? And the reason why?

I’ve been thinking of adding stack to mine because I’ve experienced a plateau but maybe your experience will be beneficial

Considering SS 31, NAD+ and 5 amino MQ1

Currently already on Klow
