Reta and Cagri - help!

[Checkup]

Hey all, I started using 2mg of Retatrutide and 250mcg of Cagrilintide, but I'm seeing zero results. Then I bumped it to 4mg and 500mcg, still nothing. I know I came off a hefty cycle of Tirzepatide too quickly, and I probably should've waited. Any suggestions?

Don't listen to me, people always jump on me if I mention exceeding dosages. But I personally was fine even at the highest accepted doses of both Reta and Cagri. Just my experience.

Maybe consider dropping the Cagri for a bit? Reta seems to build up slowly. Just stick to the recommended titration and add Cagri later if you plateau.

I've realized that if I want to overeat, I still can, although I usually regret it. It's much easier if I control my diet. If you let the Reta work, it will. The initial weight loss can be addictive, but Reta alone should give you a steady loss, making maintenance easier.

 

[HealthBTW]

I started Reta at 1mg with .125mcg Cagri, then increased to 1.5mg Reta and .250mcg Cagri after coming off Tirzepatide (dosage of 15mg for about 5 months). I feel occasional hunger, but I think my body just needs something, so I eat a tiny amount. Feeling full comes on fast. I'm planning a 5lb range in my maintenance to decide my stable dose.

 

[Lil_AF]

Totally agree with HealthBTW, that's my experience too. Reta's great for maintenance; I can still enjoy a meal out now and then.

Give the Reta a few weeks to really saturate. I found it worked much better around weeks 3-4. I'd been on semaglutide for 5 months already, so I figured I'd already lost the easy weight by then.

I didn't think Reta was very effective until I hit 8mg a week. It takes time to reach steady state and peak impact. People rush it too much.

It takes time to build up in your system. Not what you want to hear, but true.

I think a lot of people treat Reta like it's the same as Sema or Tirz. It's not. The Glucagon Receptor makes it a totally different game. Stacking it with anything before giving it time to work is a waste. If you don't think Reta is working, try injecting twice weekly to build it up faster due to its long half-life.

 

[CoolFixed]

I tend to agree with Checkup. Rushing into things or stacking them is a waste. These things take time!

I have been hearing some talking about SLU-PP-332, anyone here try that for weight loss?

 

[VialStory]

SLU? I've heard it compared to clen and DNP, but with less toxicity. Interesting if true...

 

[Lee_1981]

So basically with Reta, patience is key? I'm only on week 2 and not seeing much. Should I just keep at it?

 

[Checkup]

Yep stick with it Lee_1981. Some compounds just need time to build up in your system and start working effectively. Don't get discouraged too early!

Coming off tirz without a washout is likely the reason for zero results - receptor sensitivity needs 4-6 weeks to reset. If you're past that window, storage and injection technique are worth checking before bumping dose again.
