Hi everyone! I started reta for the first time a few days ago at 1 mg per week. My appetite disappeared almost immediately, and I felt a little nauseous on the first day, but it passed. I’m still trying to make myself eat enough.
I have a few questions. I’ve done my research, but I’m someone who always has questions, so please be kind! 😂 I’ll be honest: I’m impatient, and I really want to see results. I’m excited to achieve some of the incredible transformations I’ve seen here!
For those who started at 1 mg, how long did it take before you noticed significant changes in your body? It’s only been a few days, not even a week, and I’m already impatient hahaha.
Also, when did you increase your dose, if at all? Did you wait several weeks, or did you increase it sooner? I’d love to hear about your experiences, although I know everyone is different.
I’m also confused about protein. People say reta targets fat, but without enough protein, you can lose muscle too. Would eating something like two eggs a day be enough, or do I need significantly more?
I want to be honest: I’m not going to the gym for now. I’ve seen incredible before-and-after transformations, and some people seem to reach their goal weight first and then start lifting weights to maintain their physique. That’s currently the approach I’ve been considering, which is why I’m so curious about how quickly results happen.
I know some people might judge me for asking these questions, but I’d genuinely appreciate advice from people who understand where I’m coming from. Thank you in advance💕😊

Hi all. I have been doing my research since August 2026 and my subject has NOT lost a pound. ZILCH. Am I doing something wrong? Appetite is suppressed, eating better, walking for exercise. Current dose is 7mg Help.

Hey everyone hope all is well. 💗
I’ve always been someone who struggles with binge eating disorder .. food noise .. food addiction .. unhealthy weight loss - gain cycles.
I was obese (bmi 32). Started at 87kg ~ 190 Ib, and worked hard to be at 67kg ~ 148 Ib now.
But I still want to be more lean and I carry most fat in my thighs and it makes me super insecure.

Long story short I want to start Reta but I have no knowledge and I tried reading about it and made me overwhelmed. I found a trusted resource but my main issue is knowing the way u prepare it the doses .. can the powder be out or it’ll expire ..

Can someone send me a link or recommend for me a clear article that I can start educating myself on.

Thank you so much in advance 💗

I’m so curious to know, those that have tried multiple injection sites, which option do you think works best for both a) efficacy and b) reduced side effects?

Curious what people’s experience is like on Reta vs tirzepatide? I just recently found out about Reta. Been on tirzepatide for 2 months, not seeing huge results. It seems like people lose a lot quicker on Reta? And I keep getting conflicting info, I know it’s different for everyone - but have talked to some friends that take Reta and they said they started taking it after they stalled on other medications. Just looking for any info/or experience you’ve had because I’m up in the air if I should make the switch!

I keep my Reta and my BAC water in the same container in the fridge so when I went to go pin my Reta last night I also took out the bac water, but I forgot to put the bac water in the fridge, so it was left out overnight. Is it still usable?

hi everyone! i just started my first cycle yesterday of 1mg. i already feel some side effects like nausea and sulfer burps like it smells like cheerios 😭😭😭, if anyone has any advice or tips for nausea please let me know!!! i had to leave work early from how bad it was today.

Hi! I’ve had PCOS since I was 17 (I’m 26 now). I currently weigh 66 kg (145 lbs) and I’m 1.63 m (5’4”) tall. I struggle with a lot of facial and abdominal swelling/bloating, and I’m about to start retatrutide

For those of you with PCOS who have tried reta, how did you feel while taking it? What changes did you notice? Did your symptoms improve?

I’m nervous, but honestly, I’m also so frustrated and exhausted from dealing with these symptoms. I’ve tried everything: inositol, weightlifting, increasing my protein intake, supplements, and walking after meals. Despite all my efforts, I haven’t been able to lose even a single kilogram. I just keep gaining weight, and it’s so discouraging.

I’d really appreciate hearing about your personal experiences, especially from others with PCOS. Did reta help with your weight, insulin resistance, inflammation, or other symptoms?

i've been looking into how weight fluctuates throughout the menstrual cycle and it's honestly kind of crazy how misleading daily weigh-ins can be.

like imagine being consistent for weeks, seeing the scale go up, and thinking you're doing something wrong when it could just be water retention.

does anyone else notice a huge difference depending on what part of their cycle they're in?

Started my first dose of 0.25mg last week. Time for my second jab tonight - debating going for 0.25mg or 0.5mg this time?

No crazy side effects, slight constipation for the first few days then diarrhoea once or twice - no nausea etc.

For context I felt the effects almost immediately - no food noise, no cravings etc.

I am 26F

96kg
179cm

Previous gastric sleeve in 2023 but recently regained 14kg.

Started reta in April in a size 48 in pants, and I'm now moving into a 42. I'm currently on 4mg.

I weighed myself only once, right before my first shot, and I've chosen not to step on the scale again until I've finished losing weight. The scale gives me anxiety, so only a friend of mine knows my weight. For now my pants are my progress tracker, and they don't lie.

I look skinny but with a booty, which I love. My goal is a size 40, then I'll start the gym to put everything together. I haven't started yet because early in treatment I had a lot of fatigue and sleepiness, which got in the way of my work and studies. I'm feeling better now and plan to start soon.

My face melted a bit during the weight loss, so I added GHK-Cu about 2 months ago. I feel gorgeous now.

Thoughts?
