Retatrutide: Weight Loss at 3 months #980

was on reta for 5 months, started at 1mg/week and got to 6mg. Lost no weight. Had the RHR increase and HRV decrease, and got it from [redacted], so I know it was real Reta. Switched to 4mg tirz 2x/week it’s been 6 weeks and no weight loss. Dexa at the start and end, lost 1lb fat, gained 1lb muscle. Labs show 680+ test and normal thyroid across this time period. Have mixed in mots-c and tesa intermittently for 8 week cycles. Apparently I’m an unlucky non-responder.

So in July I was natty. Never even done creatine, thought “peptides” was a skincare thing. Some guy on discord sent me a reta protocol and I figured why not. Then MOTS-c for the “mitochondria.” Then GHK-Cu because my skin got weird. Then a SARM. Yesterday a growth hormone kit showed up and my wife asked when we started running a lab. It’s October. 39 years old. Don’t know how this happened and I’m not stopping.

Getting welts on higher doses of MOTS-C and GHK-Cu. Aching at random times too, not fun. Used to pin daily with no problemos but I got lazy and pin more mgs twice a week. I think I’ll start adding some bac water to each shot to soften the blow

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

Started Mots-C after 4 weeks of SS-31. also on Reta 6 mg. down 57.5 lbs since April but built a lot of muscle and also training Muay Thai. I want to know the best Mots-c cycle. 5 days at 1mg/day, or 3 days at 1.5-2mg/day? i am starting off at 500mcg daily for the first 2 weeks every day (maybe 5 days on/2 days off).

Just wanted to update my reta speed run. Week 6 now 33 lbs lost. Starting weight 307lbs. 35 yo male. Former Marine / athlete. Before I started i bulked up and got the strongest I've ever been. Muscular build but carried a lot of extra fat for sure. As far as health concerns, my labs look incredible. All bloodwork shows improvement and my fatty liver is decreasing. For those concerned about gallbladder, I already had it removed. I've had zero side effects. I may be considered a "super responder". My strength has decreased maybe 10% but my conditioning and cardio has since tripled. I've also started KLOW and MOTSC. I know some take it nice and slow and lose 10 lbs a year but I never planned this to happen. My max dose on reta has never exceeded 3.5 mg maybe. Dosing maybe 4-6 days as I feel it wearing off. I enjoy the comments and hope to get more input.

Would love to give you a proper MOTS-c review but I’ve made a mess of the experiment. Took it fasted on rest days for three days and felt awful. Stopped, restarted at the same amount after breakfast, went straight to the gym and felt great. So was it the peptide? The food? Actually exercising? Apparently I need to control more variables than “same vial.”

I have been on Reta for 26 weeks now. 5mg but will go up to 6mg soon. I lost 57 lbs and counting, while keeping a slight caloric defecit. Me and my wife have been having sex nonstop & I am the healthiest i have ever been and i am starting SS-31 and Mots-C soon after. I love this day and age we live in!
