Hi. Does anyone have any experience with taking Reta in the evenings??? My plan was to start taking in the p.m. to avoid any nausea, but I have read quite a bit on possible heart rate elevation. If anyone has any personal experience with this, please share. Thanks!!!
Starting weight 182lbs, current weight 140 lbs. I lost 42 lbs along with getting in a lot of protein, resistance
training 4 times a week, and getting 15k steps a day.
I think once this vial is up i'm done. I admit, I started reta at an average weight and was warned of what would happen. I lost a lot of weight and people are worried. Even though I was at an average BMI, binge eating has always been a struggle of mine. I've never been obese but I've definitely had my years of being overweight. I love not having food noise. I love not thinking about it 24/7. I love not overeating myself into physical illness during a binge. Will I get extreme hunger once the effects wear out of my body? I know it won't happen instantly but when it does, will I binge myself into even weighing more than before? Do I have to be on this forever?
Following up on my post asking for experiences with retatrutide and ketosis (https://www.reddit.com/r/Retatrutide/comments/1k2l5ot/bohb_levels_on_retatrutide/) here is what I wrote.
Thank you for your contributions!
Dudeeee 28F
four children (6 months postpartum nonBF)
My pregnancy weight was 168 my PP was 247…
I started Reta 4 weeks ago. My dose is 2mg. I started @1.5 and went up to 2 last week. My only side effect was the skin tenderness it made wearing clothes and even laying in bed difficult and painful….. but DUDE.
I’ve gone from 247 to 226 in three weeks time!!! That’s 21 pounds and roughly a pound or so a day.
The weight loss is one thing but the way I feel, the mood stabilization and the addictive cravings GONE! I like who I am again. Most of it might be placebo bc I’m so excited but I’m also aware that this is the start I needed to get back to a healthy whole me
3 month check in
Coming at you again with a 3 month, slow-but-realistic progress update!
SW - 227.6lbs
CW - 208.0lbs
Dose: 1.5mg/week
Just about down 20lbs! My body composition has changed so much, I'm noticing it big time in my clothes. I had to retire my shirt in the left photo. My size mediums fit me again.
Experiencing so many strength gains in my lifts. I am shoulder pressing 80lbs which I haven't been able to do in yeeaarrss!
I am currently in the awkward time of getting ready to move into a new house while still trying to sell our current house 😅 i am hella stressed out. I felt the food noise creeping back full force at the start of the month so decided to titrate up to 1.5mg. Brought the food noise back under control enough to keep going.
I'm still eating high ptotein, but realistically probably more like 150g/day now.
I still believe slow and steady is the best way!
Is this normal? I’ve been eating 100g of protein a day minimum, doing some body weight strength training 3/4x a week (trying to get my form down before I switch to real weights) and drinking a ton of water and electrolytes and zero alcohol. I’ve injected .5mg last Wednesday and did .5 this morning and have had 0 symptoms so far and feel great- it almost feels too good to be true! What else should I be doing?
What was the experience/results using these two in tandem? I’ve purchased NAD+ supplement tablets (not subq) to help with energy. I am interested in NAD+ subq but I want to get a good review on the tablets before I commit to a vial.
Currently taking .12mg vitamin D3 everyday for a month so far. While it has helped some, i’m still pretty fatigued. Would love to hear your thoughts, opinions, etc;
Additional Info: 22f, 215lbs
I attended a consultation at a wellness clinic that specializes in peptides. She approved the use of NAD+ The specialist is working closely with my psychiatrist to ensure i’m not overdoing it.
I’ve been on tirz the last 6 months but will researching Reta now because honestly the blindness lawsuit freaked me out so I’m gonna give Reta a shot. Any advice or what was your experience making this transition ?
*UPDATE: I’ve decided to stay on Tirz, didn’t want to risk weight gain and have received more insight on what caused blindness and I don’t believe I have a high chance of it affecting me.
