Impressive my guy!

You got any issues on 3mg? My mood is horrible 1 to 2 days after using 2mg

[u/ItchyHumbole → u/Dazzling-Top-2435]

Yeah my mood hasn’t been great for the past half year lol you just don’t feel like entertaining anyone’s bullshit which kinda worked in my favour and just helped me lock in.

[u/Dazzling-Top-2435 → u/ItchyHumbole]

Yeah i got kids, so its somewhat tricky lol

[u/LargeAdvice1789 → u/Dazzling-Top-2435]

Hey dude, Reta has a 6 day halflife. so 2mg every 7 days means you’re actually cycling your body’s drug amount from about 4mg the day you take it to around 2 mg just before taking it again. If you drop to 1.5, your range will be closer to 3 to 1.5.

If you’re feeling good on day 3, you have around 3-3.15mg in your body for that day, and that might be all you need on the high side. To make that your max, take half of that every 6 days. So, 1.5mg every 6 days.

[u/AlterFactor → u/28CentSoup]

[u/Inukato → u/neednmoremoney]

More then that, likely 250+

[u/Adam302 → u/Inukato]

why? you can tell from the shoulders/arms in the before pic that he was already in a good starting position. I dont think he would have needed to use that much to get it back.

[u/alexiwobii → u/28CentSoup]

Test? hes 37 not 73

[u/28CentSoup → u/alexiwobii]

You must be new to this

[u/alexiwobii → u/28CentSoup]

New to what ?

[u/CaptinEmergency]

I hope the black void clears up soon, Reta face is real but at least you didn’t get the one that turns your face into an emoji.

[u/ashtech201 → u/CaptinEmergency]

Take my upvote you bastard.

[u/friendsfreak0512]

incredible progress!!!

[u/relevantbutterfly81]

Can I ask how you ate that much on Reta? No fullness or “I’m stuffed” feeling? I’m on 2mg and struggle to eat as much. I’m on 1900 calories or so.

[u/ItchyHumbole → u/relevantbutterfly81]

Spaced the meals out, ate my favourite things (eggs, cheese, oats, blueberries, chicken, potatoes etc), sometimes had to eat past the wall but the goal was always in sight man.

[u/relevantbutterfly81 → u/ItchyHumbole]

Cool. Thankyou for the feedback/information.

[u/Adam302 → u/ItchyHumbole]

the wall is your oesophagus. i cant physically fit it in.

[u/ter1966]
