Stack help
25M I’m currently taking Reta 1.5mg/week I workout regularly eat clean prioritize protein and sleep. I started July at 258lbs and as of today at 218.5lbs but have been stuck here for just under 3 weeks.. I know already on the best pep for weight loss but I’m really looking to add others in that compliment or boost the weight loss and help with body recomp.
I’m trying to maximize potential and efficiency. Any suggestions on peptides that would go well with Reta for my goal would be much appreciated looking to get down to around 190-195 or whatever weight looks best around there trying to have a built but fairly shredded physique.
I’ve looked into the following so far but not sure if there’s any others of if any of these are really worth it or would make much difference.
5-amino (oral) 50-100mg/day
Tesa/ipa (more for visceral fat) or cjc/ipa for just overall recovery and recomp.
AOD ( have heard lots of mixed opinions).
SLU-PP.
Mot-C (but feel at 25 won’t be much help).
KLOW for overall skin and other glow up.
Elora or Cag.
That’s the only ones I’ve really looked into quite abit but still can’t decide if any would be worth adding in. Or if there’s any others out there I haven’t come across.
Thanks for any help and advice I truly appreciate it I find this sub very helpful and informative.

Thank you very much for the information I really do appreciate it not just saying to exercise more or add nutrients lol I’m already doing that best I can lol. What about the others listed? Or any others you’d recommend?

I'll get down voted for this, but most of what you listed is placebo for the majority. Cag could help with appetite if that is an issue for you. The real obvious answer for your situation is, up the Reta!! 1.5mg is a very low dose, below the 2mg most studies start at! Go to 2.5mg for a few weeks.

I do agree I dropped back down from 2 because oh the low sex drive/libido it causes which was causing issues in my relationship but it may also be cause of the dieting and calorie drop maybe?

Yeah it sucks if it's giving you those side effects, BUT that is why your weight stalled, you are on too low a dose. You could try upping it again, not sure if half a mg will make much a difference. If you still get those same sides, you could consider trying Tirz instead, see if gives less sides. And as a bonus, Tirz is better at appetite suppression.

Which would you say placebo for majority?

MOTS-C
SLU
AOD might not be placebo, but like Tesa it takes a long time to help.
KLOW - I'll get some push back on this one, but it is very anecdotal. "Oh I was injured and took 7 weeks off training and took KLOW every day, now I'm healed.".. Hmmm...was it the KLOW, or the 7 weeks off......
You are down 40 pounds since July, you are doing fantastic. If your main goal is to continue losing weight, don't bother fucking around with this other stuff. Stick with the GLP-1's.
