Reta newbie here - anyone else?

Hong Kong Yanpep International
Kicked off MJ back in July 2020. Because supply was so tight, my doctor ramped my dose fast just so I'd stay on whatever I could actually source. Reached 15mg within roughly eight months. Needed to shed over 100 pounds at that point. Lost 40 the first year, then absolutely nothing for over a year. Picked intermittent fasting back up after that and dropped another 20. Now stuck again. Just found out about Reta and I've got an appointment lined up to look into the compounded route. Hoping it kicks things loose again. Still have at least 40 to go. Fingers crossed it breaks through this MJ wall.
 
Hit 8lb gone by week 3, and just wrapped week 5 sitting at 15lb total. Pretty consistent trajectory for me so far, though I started super conservative at 1mg and climbed half a milligram every couple weeks. Everyone's path looks different though, and honestly I credit a lot of my results to overhauling what I actually eat. Reta's definitely handling the hunger side well at this point too.
 
Five weeks into reta at a small weekly amount and just crossed into the normal BMI range. Dealing with a disability and a mostly sedentary lifestyle, so there's still real progress needed. Belly fat's the main concern right now. Just joined a local recreation center and starting resistance training plus pool sessions going forward.
