0.5ml cyp (corrected). on the creatine—reading says 20g crosses the blood-brain barrier for cognitive effects, was already at 15g so another 5 makes sense.

So are they blended or separate? If blended try a rapid titration—I did 100 each my first two days to make sure, then 200 each for the other three days, eventually landed on 350 each. Fair warning: might get a niacin-flush warmth in the face. I kinda like it. Heart rate bumps a bit too but goes...

While lower manufacturing costs are promising, the final price depends on numerous factors. Regulatory hurdles, distribution networks, and marketing expenses all influence the ultimate price patients pay.

That's just the cost to MANUFACTURE, people. Gotta factor in profits, shareholders, packaging, distribution... the list goes on. The manufacturing cost is pretty much irrelevant to what we'll actually pay. I'd bet they're already making it for pennies per dose.

I’ve seen a few studies showing GLP-1s actually improve muscle quality and function, and reduce fat inside the muscle based on biopsies. While these drugs certainly decrease muscle mass, the total mass and fat loss significantly improve daily function. Think about climbing stairs, a huge...

Dropped to 1.5mg on a six-day rotation. The nausea has cleared up quite a bit, food flavor is still off but manageable. Hydration remains a struggle though at least protein consumption is happening again. Hit the scale and landed at 69.2kg - nearly 10kg shed in under a month.

Just started Reta today at 2.5mg. Will update weekly. No side effects yet. Regular workout, errands, hunger normal. I'm in my 50s, 6-0, and 250lbs. Been on TRT for 2+ years. It's expensive, so I'll eventually get priced out as my dose goes up. Anyone have affordable sources?

I agree with It's worth noting that constant hunger and 'food noise' can be a biological issue and not a personal failing. GLP-1s can really help quiet those signals so you can make better decisions.

It could be a placebo effect but I noticed it almost right away after injecting 1mg of Reta. Like, within a couple of hours. Even though it's such a low dose, I still get food cravings but they're WAY less intense. Plus, I get full much faster during meals. I did my first shot on Friday and...

Use goal weight and 1gm/lb. Some say more, some less. It's a range. If you're serious about hypertrophy, you need to take protein and nutrition seriously. I have a scoop with my coffee and another for "dessert."

Not the OP, but I'm on a low dose of Reta (1mg-1.5mg) and hitting my macros (1500 Calories & 150grams of protein) easily. I just started though, so who knows.

Is 1mg or 2mg of Reta too much to start? I thought that was a normal starting dose.

Looking great / congrats on the weight reduction

Make sure that you are drinking plenty of water and getting enough electrolytes, especially if you are experiencing those side effects. It can make a big difference.

Since you're 'restarting,' your past experience is probably the best indicator. But everyone reacts differently. For me, it was a few hours after my first 2.5mg of tirz.

Another tall woman! I also started around 190 lbs at 6 ft. I haven't lost a lot yet. My target is 170 lbs. I have a good amount of muscle mass.

Great progress! Congratulations.

I didn't notice water weight loss on the low doses, but also no fat weight loss until I was on a higher dose. I've switched to Monjaro and noticed a significant difference.

I get it. Check out some dedicated online forums. Some folks share independent testing to prove the quality from various sources. There are many workarounds to get GLP-1s.

You look amazing! You should be very proud of yourself!
