CJC-1295: Severe Reaction #923

I spent months trying MOTS-C, KLOW, Wolverine and CJC/IPA, testing different stacks at different times, and honestly felt absolutely nothing from any of them. Waste of money and the injection sites were cooked. Then I tried Reta, and it’s been a completely different story. I’ve been losing around 1 kg a week, quit smoking, quit sugar, and pretty much lost all my vices. It’s genuinely the best thing I’ve ever taken for changing my habits and losing weight. BUT the fatigue and lethargy are brutal, and the heartburn is actual torture. I feel like crap most of the time, but the results are hard to ignore. Would I rather feel good or look good? Easy question and its not close

​I turned to GLP-1s to fix a metabolism wrecked by an ill-advised growth hormone protocol. Severe insulin resistance hit overnight, spiking my HOMA-IR and making me terrified of clean carbs. ​Semaglutide helped initially, then stalled. What no one told me is that prior GLP-1 exposure means Retatrutide requires much higher starting doses. I lost months of frustration and serious money on low titration doses feeling zero effect until finally hitting 6 mg. Still, seeing 95 kg frozen on the scale is mentally exhausting. ​I run CJC/Ipamorelin to protect muscle, but water retention masks progress. Balancing fasts, night pins, and metabolic healing feels isolating when people only talk about easy drops. If you're stuck on a plateau after prior GLP-1 use, don't lose hope—you're not alone.

69 year old female here. Started Reta late May after losing 20 pounds using time restricted feeding and Intermittent fasting. Titrated slowly. Starting at 1 mg all the way up to 4 mg with minimal side effects except for the elevated HR and plummeting HRV on my Oura ring. I have lost only 15 pounds since May and in September my weight has stalled. I do water aerobics 5X a week, lift 3X a week, and prioritize protein eating 2 meals a day. I tried AOD9654 on mornings of fasted workouts but didn’t see much progress. I’m currently alternating with CJC/IPA and Tesa/ IPA and have seen some body recomposition and inches lost, but my weight has stalled for the past month. Is it time to titrate up to 5 mg?

My iPhone doesn’t recognize my face anymore. I act like it’s aggravating but deep down I enjoy the inconvenience and refuse to reset the settings. 5ft 10 male down 60 lbs since January to 152lbs and more defined in my mid fifties than ever before. Went from a 36 inch waist to 30. All my bio markers are perfect. Triple ag was as high as 8mg a week now maintained at 2.5mg, two twelve week cycles of Tesa, two cycles of MotsC, GHKCU every night, NAD mornings and currently on week two of twelve CJC1295/Ipa. Weight lifting /cycling three times a week has been the norm. Expensive buying new clothes but love how I look in my Bylt medium polos. Oh I haven’t touched alcohol in over seven weeks. When weight lifting and listening to the same songs over and over I have to use my code on my phone because face recognition doesn’t work! Good times!

fifteen minutes after every cjc pin my face goes hot and red like i've walked out of a tanning bed and for about an hour I feel pleasantly drunk and then the dreams at night come and everything turns to awful, I guess I should call them nightmares

I live in the UAE and payed 1100$ for monthly treatment of CJC 1295 prefilled pen 3ml + one of ghkcu I think I got scammed after seeing what Americans pay in the states. We have money, but 10x the cost is too much, I hope Dubai ups their game.

After 4 months of various Grey market Peptides- Bpc,cjc,glp2,glp3,dsip,tesa,serm,ipa ,ghk many daily; Only one-cjc- had a noticeable affect---(within minutes-heart rate rise and warming feeling) And yet- i still take them. Ill finish the supply then im out.:-(

I did a cycle of CJC/IPA and the sleep was insane. But within a week, I did gain 10 pounds, I know my hunger went up, but I’m confident my diet didn’t change. But I’m debating on whether to go through that same cycle or try Tesa to help rid of belly fat. GLP will be after I have more muscle mass
