The difficulty finishing rather than libido drop is a less-discussed GLP-1 effect but it's reported. Timing activity during days 4-5 of the dose cycle when levels are lower is the main community approach.

Week 2 appetite suppression being weaker than expected is normal - Reta builds over the first 4-6 weeks. The 1.5mg hold until week 5 is sensible. Shoulder training while in a deficit works fine; body recomposition is actually easier early in Reta use when the appetite signal is clearing.

The crossover direction matters - going into reta with tirz still active in the system blunts the initial response, so a week or two of gap gives a cleaner read on whether it's working.

Would you be better off with bariatric surgery? It's more of a permanent solution and has less risk of regaining the weight.

What dosage were you taking? Could microdosing, like a very small amount, potentially prevent the negative side effects?

Wait, so if I'm on Mounjaro I need to be extra careful with birth control? 😳 I'm not trying to have a baby right now!

If the cap was blue, I'd agree!

Mix it and see if it gets cloudy. Nothing to lose at this point, I guess.

Big congrats! Changing your lifestyle is the only way. That's how it's done 💪

That definitely doesn't look like the usual freeze-dried stuff. Does it slosh at all when you turn it upside down?

This makes me feel less scared to bring it up. I think I went in apologetic before. Next time I'll just state it calmly like any other medication. Thank you everyone.

What about that one politician's overweight buddy who uses it?? What will he think??

Tariffs are just backdoor taxes on regular folks. Free trade is the way!

Wow! Green-FWIW That's amazing! I'm hoping I can do that well. I'm just starting out and a little nervous.

You look fantastic! Great job!
