Currently one week into reta. First week did 1mg and second time today did again 1mg. I feel absolutely nothing. Hlw is that possible?

Dipende da vari fattori ma è una cosa soggettiva. Io per esempio in estate da maggio a settembre lavoro tantissimo e ti posso dire che non avvertivo picchi di fame anzi la sera saltavo la cena e prendevo le proteine farina di avena e burro di arachidi. Oggi invece devo essere sincero con 5 mg a settimana non riesco a non pensare di mangiare e credo che il mio corpo si sia abituato alla dose o al farmaco.
Ciao è normale se posso darti un consiglio mantieni ancora per un paio di settimane. Comincia ad allenarti bene una dieta proteica e poi aumenti poco alla volta. Eviti effetti collaterali e spacca in palestra. Io sono arrivato al quinto mese con 5 mg a settimana diviso in 2 dosi

Hallo, das ist normal. Mein Tipp: Mach noch ein paar Wochen weiter. Fang mit einem guten Training und einer proteinreichen Ernährung an und steigere die Zufuhr dann langsam. Vermeide Nebenwirkungen und gib im Fitnessstudio alles. Ich bin jetzt im fünften Monat mit 5 mg pro Woche, aufgeteilt in zwei Dosen.
Wann kommt die wirkung denn und spürt man wirklich weniger lust auf essen oder hat man nur weniger hunger? Weil ich eher das problem habe sehr viel apettit zu haben und kein hunger.

Same here. Huge effect with microdose of sema or tirze (good responder) but absolutely nothing with Reta. Only the bad sides even with an increasing of the dosage. Very disappointing

Bro, I think the main thing here is understanding the difference between hunger and appetite. You can be full and still crave food or constantly think about it, which is often called food noise. Retatrutide can potentially help with both, but you've only been using it for a week, so it's early to judge how well you're responding. Some people notice appetite changes earlier, and not feeling anything immediately doesn't necessarily mean it's ineffective.I wouldn't rush into increasing the dose to chase appetite suppression. Are you mainly struggling with cravings and snacking even after you've eaten enough?

Well maybe i have to wait a little bit but yet i only can say it feels like i only get side effects and no effects. So for further understanding, i eat the same portions and eat like i used to do. The only difference is that i only have to go 3 times per week to the toilet even less i think so and very small amounts. So its weird. I thought i would stop thinking about food, but now i still think about food but i can not eat because my stomach is full. Pain in the ass

Reta might already be affecting your digestion even if your cravings haven’t changed yet. Feeling full and still wanting to eat are two different things. After only two 1mg doses, I wouldn’t expect results in days. The reduced bowel movements suggest possible (unlikely but still is a side known) constipation, so I’d focus on hydration, smaller portions with frequent protein. Are you feeling bloated too, or mainly just full?

I think one thing that's often overlooked with retaturtide is the time it takes for it to gradually build up in the body.
Its half-life is about 6 days, which means that with weekly injections at a constant dose, its concentration in the blood gradually increases to approach a steady state after about 3 to 4 weeks.
Of course, some people experience a decrease in appetite almost immediately, while others take longer to react. Every organization is different.
But personally, I wouldn't judge the effectiveness of retatrutide after only one or two injections. The fact that you do not immediately feel a sharp decrease in appetite does not mean that the product does not work.
And reaching a stable concentration in the blood does not mean that all the effects on weight loss have already manifested themselves. These can take much longer.
I think it is much more relevant to observe the general evolution over several weeks rather than drawing conclusions from the first days.

Update from my side week 3 of 2mg on retatrutide.

My apettite? Gone.
My cut was never that easy. 1400 calories and 170g protein? Easy done.
Im currently doing a mini cut with 210mg testosterone to not lose muscle as far as possible.
My digestion pretty much turned 180 degrees from not beeing able to go to the toilet to now go to the toilet for sever times in an hour and having light stomach pain. My digestion is pretty fucked up. Any advice? I didnt change the dose after going to 2mg weekly.

I had the same problem with uncontrollable diarrhea several times a day.

First of all, remember to drink a bit more because you can quickly become dehydrated.

Then avoid as much as possible any fiber or food that ferments easily.

Try to find an anti diarrhea (for me it didn't work but it can still be tried)

It should be sorted out in about ten days. Unless you reduce the dose if it's unbearable.
