I don't think I'm having any side effects, and I'm not feeling less hungry or fuller for longer. It's been a week. I take it first thing in the morning with water and wait 2 hours before eating or drinking anything else. I still have cravings though.

I find it fascinating that the weight regain rate isn't closer to 100% in these studies. I'd expect most people to be back where they started within 5 years of stopping treatment (assuming no major lifestyle changes).

It happens to me sometimes, too. Strangely, drinking water in the middle of the night seems to make it worse. Like it wakes up my stomach!

I was on Zepbound before my insurance cut me off, and I dropped about 35lbs. Now I'm on the Rybelsus, and I feel like garbage and I’m constantly thinking about food. Zepbound was way better for me, especially since I have really bad sleep apnea.

Thanks everyone! I'm really hoping to keep the momentum going. It's been a struggle for years but this feels different, you know?

Been on Rybelsus for about a month now, and I've dropped around 10lbs! Had a bit of a cheat day last weekend (oops, chocolates!), but otherwise I've been sticking to the plan and thankfully no major issues like some people have mentioned. I also joined a gym that does kickboxing about 3 weeks...

I switched back from Ret to Tirz because Ret didn't suppress my appetite as much.

Same here... I'm super interested and watching this closely too.

scale is poor for tracking fat loss and muscle gains. dexa scans show if losses are actual fat or muscle so you can adjust diet and workouts. visceral fat dropped fast for me so knew i was on track. also showed where i was building or losing muscle.

"You mean you're going to take that FOREVERRRRRRRRRRR?" Me - "Yup."

I shoulda died from the vax so whatever, bring on the crazy opinions lol.

For those who have lost a significant amount of weight on Reta, where do you get your peptides? I'm looking for reliable sources.

Hating old pictures but loving the comparison is the best part. The shift is huge, from self conscious about clothes to genuinely proud. Zero regrets on the meds, confidence matters.

Same goal here! Started at 275, aiming for 200, sitting at 239 now.

It took me about 9 months, give or take. Everyone's different! Congrats on your progress!

I wish there was a 'love' button here!

I honestly didn't think I'd get here, but wow, I feel fantastic. It's like the old me is back. So happy! Started around 270 lbs, now I'm at 175, aiming for 160.

Thanks for the advice, everyone! I think I'll grab some 5ml vials just to have the extra room for flexibility. Better safe than sorry, right?

I was asking if it's recommended.

huh? That wasn't the question. What are you even talking about?
