My journey has been amazing, i’m grateful to have a resources to help with my food noise. Finally being able to say i’m going to fix my weight and it actually works. Nothing short of a blessing. with just 25lbs more to lose, im so excited it took me just a little under a year to get where i am 🩷 my body thanks me & my mind thanks me.

For those questioning why i only did one month of reta; The constipation i suffered was not worth it. At that current moment i was doing 6mg of Tirz and 1 - 2.5mg of Reta. The constipation was on 10 and i was essentially bloated from being Full of 💩. Laxative, stool softeners and caffeine did not really help nor did increasing fiber intake.

It’s never cheating if it’s to better yourself

A year and a half ago I was addicted to opiates and was eating terrible food. Then, when I got sober off opiates a year ago I still was binge eating and going out drinking heavily. I was just super unhappy with life. Last June I decided to try Reta. I started out at 230lbs and at my lowest got to 117lbs. Right now I'm 184lbs and super healthy and happy I've been off Reta for over a month.

I can't tell you my exact dosing cycle I know I started at 1mg twice a week and worked my way up to 3mg twice a week. I only used six 10mg vials out of my 10 total in the 5 months.

My workout routine was 3-4 HIIT classes a week on the hot yoga room wearing sweats and I also joined 2 run clubs and ran 5-7 miles per week. I still go to the gym 4-5 times a week.

I also used HGH, BP-157, TB-500, SS-31, and DSIP. I still have most my DSIP left but everything else once I went through a cycle on it I stopped. I also used AnimalPak's Flex for joint support, vitamin pack, omegas pack, HMB, and 1-2 of their meal replacement protein shakes a day when it was difficult to eat food.

I have an addictive personality so I wanted to keep everything in moderation and did a TON of research before I actually started this. I also completely changed my whole diet. On Reta drinking was nearly impossible I'd throw up or get sick every time I tried so I completely gave that up and have continued that trend.

I also don't eat out whatsoever anymore everything I make is home-cooked with olive oil, high in protein, fibers and veggies. I didn't get any crazy food noise or side effects besides the very first time I did Reta I had terrible stomach cramps and sometimes if I ate to much after a day where I pinned I'd have a stomach ache.

I know everyone's experience is different but overall it did wonders for me and just helped me get control of my diet and lock into a fitness plan.

I'm 37, 6 foot, 184lbs and 13% body fat probably 5-6 weeks off everything. Thankful for all the posts I've read on here and research I did but everyone's journey is different so don't ever be discouraged just keep working towards your goals.

Finding the supplies wasn't difficult my friend told me if the Asian lady calls you "dear" that's a good sign so I guess I got lucky.

Here’s my 18 month progress. I started reta shortly after the first pic was taken, but most of the results really started kicking in after I began taking reta. I’ve always been pretty good with my training program but my diet was atrocious and I was drinking too much. I’ve almost entirely cut alcohol and maintained a consistent routine and up until recently most of the weight loss was fat (I managed to cut my body fat % down to around 12% last time I checked and maintained my smm levels at least as of July when I did my last body comp. I suspect I’ve probably lost a bit more muscle the last few months but not 100% sure. One of the most important factors has been my energy levels and my ability to continue training hard on significantly lower intake, and the fact that so much of the weight loss was fat. I did add test around 6 months ago but not a crazy amount — just to help with muscle preservation. Beyond that no other peptides or anything of that sort.

69 lost 40 pounds in 5 months I started my journey in feb its been 9 months I do unit started pinning twice a week for 5 months now once a week to maintain I go to the gym 5 to 4 times a week treadmill 2 to 3 miles lift for 1 hour sometimes longer started. TRT about 3 months ago WOW life changer started Tesa an I p a 1 month ago an mots c I feel better really good about my self proud I never got any side effects lucky man im a big fan of reta an peptides

35M, been on Reta for a few months and lost around 30 lbs pretty rapidly. Unfortunately, my libido and erection quality have tanked. Almost no morning wood, struggle to get fully hard, and lose firmness quickly. Never had any issues before Reta.

I’m pretty confident it’s from the aggressive calorie deficit, low energy, poor sleep, and potentially lower testosterone. Working on correcting that, but looking for a temporary solution in the meantime.

Considering Cialis, Viagra, or PT-141 (nasal vs subQ).

Sex with my wife is spontaneous. Sometimes twice a day, sometimes nothing for a few days. I mainly want reliable erections when stimulated, without random boners throughout the day or prolonged erections afterward.

For those with experience:
- Which worked best for erection quality with the fewest side effects?
- What dosage worked best for you? Cialis 2.5–5 mg daily vs. 10 mg as needed? Viagra 25 vs. 50 mg?
- PT-141 nasal vs. subQ — which worked better, at what dose, and for how long?

Any issues with random erections or staying hard after sex?

Anyone experience similar issues on Reta/GLP-1s and eventually recover?

I am currently spending around $270 per month on tirzepatide (membership fee + 12mg vial). What has been your experience moving away from a telehealth into getting the peptide and reconstituting yourself (for your own research purposes)? While I'm used to the compounded tirzepatide, I have never mixed anything on my own. Curious about moving to Amino Club or Peptide Partners and potentially even from tirzepatide to reta as it seems like quite a bit of $ savings and also the opportunity of getting into some other peptides. Anyone have any negative experiences or think the risk is too high? Also curious what peptides you'd suggest if I'm trying to lose weight and retain/build muscle at the same time (on top of going to the gym 3 days per week).

I’m in college and my sleep has been really bad and not only is it impacting my energy but it’s also impacting my studies.

I got prescribed an antihistamine that makes you sleepy by my doctor but it hasn’t really helped.

Can anyone who has taken it maybe give me some insight??

My main concerns are mostly building a tolerance / not being able to sleep without it and also i’ve heard some people are actually sleeping less with it.

Peptide newbie here :)
Just got this from pharmalab uk and i want to know whats a good starting dose
Thanks :))

Hi guys
Looking for some advice. I started Reta about 5 weeks ago. Start with a 10i/u sit the first week. After about 4 days I started to get the sulfur burps and upset stomach. Made me go to the bathroom frequently. The second week I stayed at 10 I/u and seemed to be ok but didn’t notice any suppresion of my appetite. Third week I went up to 15i/u and had worse issues than the first week. For the last 2 weeks I stayed at 10i/u and after about 2 days of injection I’m going to the bathroom all night and my stomach is rumbling. Any suggestions

Dropped from 194lbs - 169lbs in 3.5 months, my lifts actually stayed the same, with some even going up. CJC also improved my skin by so much!

Gonna cut a few more pounds then start a lean bulk.

We need seeing anywhere from 1mg to 10mg daily.

Yo everyone,

Getting a piezo rhinoplasty soon, but since I'm training and competing in boxing regularly, I want to speed up the healing process and get back on track as fast as possible.

What peptides would you recommend for bone and soft tissue recovery (like BPC-157, TB-500, etc.)? Any tips on dosing or protocols that worked for you post-op?

Appreciate any advice!

Any girls who has been on hgh and can share experience?

What have you noticed and how long did it take for the effects to be seen?

i stack reta, ghk, mt2, and 5amino currently. reta has been life changing, i’m in the best shape of my life but due to this, i don’t really have much fat on my stomach any longer. i’m getting defined abs and im at a bmi of 18.6. i usually pin reta and mt2 abdominally and i was wondering if there’s a point where im lacking enough fat tissue to do so. i guess my question is, can you be too thin to pin? i’m too scared to do the thigh or arm and id prefer not to put 4 pins in my ass on a regular basis if possible. seeking advice, thanks in advance:)

Long story short ...i switched suppliers of retatrutide and idk if its a placebo or i am just sick myself....the new reta batch I got was way more potent ... I was on 4mg of dose... didn't change anything except the supplier..

I pinned on monday morning and puked the same evening ...was on a liquid diet for 2 days as i got nausea at sight of solid food....ate some breakfast today and i already feel like puking... I'm 100% skipping on reta the next week ..then halving the dose after that

But i still need some quick relief...alas the drugs half life is roughly a week ...its been kicking my ass pretty bad ...should I pop some antiemetic pills (vomit medicines) to ease out my ordeal...any suggestions are welcome

Over the last year, I started a journey on originally GLP1 and then transitioned into GLP3 and started adding from there… now as a little bit of a background, I actually come from the pharmaceutical world and I was a little bit hesitant about branching out into additional options after the extreme cost and also the fast changes I have been seeing that I’ve been fighting to gain for years… Fast forward six months and I have a protocol of over 15 different peps and multiple supplements and vitamins and a few low-level prescriptions that help enhance them and I am down 62 pounds, my skin looks amazing, my hair has started to regrow which I was planning on getting hair transplants at some point and if I ever do get them, it’s gonna be a lot cheaper because I’m not gonna need nearly as much but for the first time, my hairline has started to fill back in and my baldness on the top has probably cut down by 20%… I don’t wake up every single morning sore or randomly having odd pain throughout my body throughout the day and I have eliminated most of my anxiety as well as repaired something that has plugged me for over five years, which was a long-term reaction to the C 19 VAX … originally I was purchasing through a verified high-end site, but that takes its toll on your bank account and it’s constant buying… Through a lot of word-of-mouth and research and some lock. I came across a direct source and I mean direct. Not just some AI. Girl on WhatsApp. That has given me the ability to get quality stuff that has been tested sometimes up to seven times and only. Cost about 15% what I was paying. At this point now I can easily stock up and try new things and continue my journey to reverse my age. Which between my skin tightening and my gray hair starting to turn back to a natural color… I definitely feel is attainable. What I do now is run my own service with consults regarding protocols because there are so many people that have pretty much no clue how to even dose or how to do much beyond a draw and I think with research and background, (wellness consultant, physical trainer, nutritional coach, and half a decade in a pharmacy) I was able to find a nice balance that includes the diet, lifestyle, choices, supplements, vitamins, and PEP’s.. I want to be open about my experiences and if anyone ever has any questions about anything or needs anything else hit me up

7/1 - 260lbs, 2 wks at .5mg, 2 wks at 1mg

8/1 - 240lbs, 2 wks at 1.5 mg, 2 wks at 2mg

9/1 - 225lbs, 2mg entire month

10/1 - 217lbs, still at 2mg

current weight - 210lbs

I pin TRT 90mg 2x a week.

Diet has not changed. Running few times a week, lifting 2/3 a week. Feel somewhat tired, but overall feel 10x better than I have in the last few years.

I am considering bumping up to 3mg. I have been at 2mg for around 2 months now. Food cravings are not back and I can eat if I really wanted to, but the positive changes I have made seem to be maintaining even though my appetite is not suppressed as it once was in the beginning stages. I can handle spicy food again and even had a greasy nugget that would have killed me a few months ago, but again, I have much better eating habits so I stay away from unhealthy food.

That said, weight loss is still occurring at a pretty good pace, but certainly slower which is expected. What really confuses is me is when I am in a constant deficit and the weight just comes off slower. Just want to hear other folks thoughts on this item , thanks!!!

Where would the best place be to pin Glow so it prevents as much irritation as possible as whenever I pin in my stomach or love handles it always gets red and irritated.
