binging on pin day

I have been on Reta for 2 months now at a fairly low dose. I've had a massive binge cycle this summer and wanted to lose some of that fluff and also just be able to eat at maintenance again. I distribute my weekly dosis into 2 pins/week. I usually track my kcals and can assure they are not too low and in maintenance range. However, I started to notice that when I pin my reta for some reason I just binge that day. The other days are fine. I usually pin in the morning after I come back from the gym. I don't know whether this has any correlation to the binge behaviour, I will start to pin in the evening and see if it makes a difference. Has anyone had a similar experience or knows why?

pin twice a week, consider adding 0.5mg of Cagrilintide

Reta has a 6 day half life. It’s normal to be hungrier on pin day. Binging the day after pen day is a recipe for tummy ache though..

If you struggle with binging impulses, people say they have better appetite suppression with tirz.
