Retatrutide at 3 months: Weight Loss & Stopping #835

Saw the gay guy and the lesbian woman posts and I had to share because this is my life now. 23F, started identifying as queer/nonbinary at 16 after a few years of TikTok and friend group pressure. Only dated girls or enby people. Weighed 188 when I started reta in January, titrated 1mg to 5mg, now 139lbs. First 3 months was just the quiet in my head about food. Then I noticed I stopped feeling the same pull toward my girlfriend. It turned into active avoidance. Now the thought of being with any woman feels wrong in a way it never did before, and guys who I used to automatically dismiss look actually attractive. I dropped the they/them without even deciding to. It doesn’t feel like I “chose” anything, it just feels like my brain stopped arguing with my body. If this is real for even a fraction of the kids who got into this online, someone needs to actually study it instead of pretending it can’t happen.
