Wow, what a noticeable difference! I love your bra in the before pic! I'm usually into the more top-like ones (wider back), but it's so hard to find cute ones even in my size (S/M).

Oh man, I can relate to the food issues. I used to LOVE salads, but now... no way. That's me with even a small side salad. Terrible cramping and other issues about 12 hours later. I miss salads!

It started in week 3. I've been taking 2mg weekly.

I'm still taking the 2mg dose, and last week I had a terrible bout of watery diarrhoea that gradually got better. It felt a lot like food poisoning, so I'm not sure if it was something I ate or caused by the Reta. Has anyone else had this? Does this sound like a typical side effect? Should I...

Ugh, tell me about it... We went out to eat last Saturday and I ate only a little more than normal and felt bloated. Woke up in the middle of the night, spent hours in the bathroom, and still felt bloated the next day...

It's probably their New Year celebration, which would explain the recent silence. Doesn't explain why you haven't heard back from the first place.

I take 3mg of retatrutide weekly (Sundays) and added 240mcg of cagrilintide on Wednesdays. I did it to stretch out my reta titration runway by helping directly with food noise. It's worked pretty well so far. I still like a little bit of a hunger signal so I can get in my 180g of protein, but...

Just WOW!!

For anyone heading to maintenance and considering skin removal, a friend had multiple surgeries and said having support is key. You'll likely need help with everyday tasks while you recover. Plan to have friends or family around for a few weeks.

Reaching maintenance is a huge achievement and inspires others aiming for the same. Sharing your experience on the community could really encourage many people navigating this phase.

Awesome! Keep up the great work!!

Sounds like you're using it the right way! A tool to help you get healthy, not a quick fix. Clearly, you're making the effort, and that's fantastic. I've lost about 210 pounds total and feel great. I actually enjoy exercise now and love being active. It feels like my life has been given back to...

Unbelievable. Just fantastic.

Yeah, maybe. I think it's also about listening to your body and not rushing to increase the dose if you are still seeing results. I don't see the point in going higher if my body is responding to a lower dose.

It's interesting that people rush to a therapeutic dose. I plan to try reta (if I can find a good source). I used sema for a few months at .25-.5 (max) and dropped about 25 lbs. I tried .6-.75, but the side effects were too much. Everyone's different, so it's better to be careful.

On the bright side, anyone who tried that schedule would probably be making headlines by now.

Yeah, I've been researching it. Once my rat adjusted, I tweaked the dose. It's 4 parts tirz and 1 part reta, plus 10% extra. Appetite is good. After being stuck for a month on tirz, this kicked off some more weight loss. Checking glucose daily - no issues. Happy rat.

I've got a bunch of this batch of MIX. Vacuum sealed with those desiccant packs in the freezer. When I get to them way later, I'll just mix and filter and start researching, and will probably have forgotten about this thread.

I'd never have a normal bowel movement on that schedule! Just crazy.

Yep. Sterility is about live bugs that will grow in a dish, or inside you. Chemicals are a purity problem. I assume the lab tests for sterility by mixing the sample with sterile water, not BAC. Not sure BAC would even kill bugs anyway - the alcohol is low. It's for stopping future growth, not...
