Been on Zep for over 3 years. Just took my last shot of 15MG last Sunday. How long should I wait before starting Reta? Planning on starting at .5 but worried about if I’ll be starting too soon.
Is there no chance of trying to set up the right food habits and the right environment while on Reta, to make managing the food noise easier when we come off Reta?
I have been on tirz for 4.5 months now. I’m losing and doing well with minimal side effects. They come and go which is weird. I’m down about 17 pounds now and taking 11mg.
My daughter has had amazing results with reta and with all the research I’ve done having that glucagon effect would be nice. I don’t necessarily want to quit the tirz but would love a little glucagon bump.
I’m post menopause and the weight loss is definitely slow as a result. Curious what you think?

Hey guys, been reading a lot about lowest effective dose and started off my research thinking I’d start at 2 and end up somewhere around 6-8mgs.
Thinking of starting at 0.5 or 1 mg but conflicted. Looking for some direction here.
Planning on getting my first vial kit next week, going to have 1 sent out for testing prior to starting just to be 100% sure.
Curious to hear what folks in similar situations started at and where they ended up - keep in mind, I’m going for “lowest effective dose” but don’t want to start too low.
not for weight loss purposes, just curious about compatibility. running reta currently and considering adding MT2 for other reasons. any interactions worth knowing about or pretty straightforward to stack
Hey everyone I started Reta on 1st July. I tend to be very sensitive to medications so I microdosed myself and I mean LOW 0.5mg, even at that microdose I already notice less food noise, not feeling hungry as much or as often. So even though it’s a very low dose, it still is affecting me (glad I started at that dose lol)
But my question is…. How would alcohol affect me? Considering going out tonight to a birthday and would love to have drinks as I normally would have but of course I’ve read what people say their experiences have been and it doesn’t sound great but all the ones I’ve read are people who are on higher doses.
I’m wondering if anyone has had alcohol on a microdose like me and how it was?
If the microdose didn’t do anything then I wouldn’t be overthinking. But because I know the microdose is actually working for me, I’m not sure how will go?
Normally I can drink and get drunk and also have no hangover the next day. But I’ve a feeling could be different now?
Any advice & experiences very much welcome
Hello Friends!
(I made a mistake a on my earlier graph, labeling the drugs backwards, I've fixed that below).
I've been on Tirzepatide/Mounjaro for 18 months, weight reduced from 143kg to 118, 25kg lost or 18%. I've been at 15mg/week for over 6 months. Weight is steady.
Dexascan says total body fat is 27% when I'm at 116kg. At this weight/test Visceral fat is 2.14lb.
Goal is to get to 100kg and 20% body fat and 1% visceral fat.
I work out 4 times per day for 1 hour each with a trainer.
No significant negative side effects from Tirzepatide other than satiety/nausea when overeating and some gastrointestinal gas/burping.
I'm starting Retatutride next week.
What would you all recommend:
My current plan is here - what do you think?
So I am only one week in on my Reta journey and adding Tessa to my regiment this Monday. So I took 1MG on day one and four days later I took 1.5 mg and I am not feeling the hunger suppressant at all after one day of taking the medication. It’s more of me having the will power not to eat. What does this mean and has anyone else experience this in the beginning of their journey.
I bought 10mg vials and reconstituted it with 2ML of Bac water. Took 10 units my first injection and 15 units my second injection.
I think I got a bad BATCH!!!
Please help with your advice
I’m 1.5 months in and have been taking 2mg a week. For the last 2 weeks. Still eating around the same amount of calories and doing good with Reta with the last few lbs I’m trying to loose. Down 100+ without Reta over the last 3 years. I’ve lost 60 in the last 6 months or so after really focusing in on my goals.
The issue is, getting up to quickly, I’m getting very light headed and dizzy. I can refocus after some time. BP 122/68, 52bpm as of yesterday by a Dr.
Anyone else notice this? Am I eating too little? For the last few months I’ve been in a 600/800 calorie deficit and am more like 400 under my BMR at this point. Only drinking 1 cup of coffee for caffeine a day.
Thoughts?
I’ve had a pretty good experience with Semax so far. I mainly noticed it seemed to help with mental clarity and focus without feeling overly stimulating. I really wanted to get off adderall, obviously nothing compares to that but it is helping and I can see myself getting off by using Semax
I’m curious about trying Selank next, especially for the calmer/anxiety-support side of things without feeling amped up. I also recently saw a post about Adamax in here, so now that’s on my radar too.
For anyone who has tried Semax, Selank, or Adamax, how would you compare them? Thanks
I’ve ordered some peps but idn if it’s working ? Is it possible to have fake stuff
Took the most painful bowel movement in my life. Now I know what giving birth feels like. Does anyone else have this issue too?
I have recently upped to 6mg 1x a week. No other side effects and gym 6 days a week. Heavy lifting 6 days with 2x5km runs and 1 100 floor stairmaster session. Eating around 1300 cal to try to hit gw of 78kg.
I find I regularly cannot sleep past 4.30 am regardless of what time I go to bed. Is anyone else struggling with this?
Planning on reconstituting my reta with this. I know 28 days is the recommended time to keep opened BAC water but I’m wondering I can still find success with 51 days? Thank you.
I have been on reta nearly 3 months, haven't lost any weight but my pants (thigh) and shirts (biceps) are far more snug. I have a friend taking it from the same batch and has lost quite a bit. Any ideas on this? I didn't really want to bulk I wanted to cut.
I know my calories are at a drastic deficit, could that be it? High protein with moderate carbs which are mostly cooled overnight rice or (same) potatoes for the resistant starch. And pre-workout breakfast is 1 label serving of cream of wheat + 25g protein to get the minor spike to help IM l-carnitine to work.
Ok so I missed my usual pin that I do on Monday because of supply issues and I was told it’s ok to take it Wednesday instead so that’s what I did. Well then my next question was if it was ok to pin again on Monday like I usually do and my other researcher friends said yes. Well now I’ve been sleeping for 16+ hours a day since Monday. When will this go away? Did I just over do it? I’m on 2mg. I legit cannot keep my eyes open when the sleepiness overtakes me. I even tried to drink coffee and I feel like it made the tiredness worse. I work tomorrow so I’m crossing my fingers I feel normal tomorrow.
Been having great results and wanting to help others.
Pm me.
Does the food noise and appetite come back that strongly when switching to just Reta?
I’m interested in switching to Reta, but I worry my sugar addiction will come back with a vengeance.
Please be nice to me, I’m learning lol
