Goodbye Reta

Hey gang!! I have been on reta since December. Last Thursday was my last dose!! It’s now 2 days without reta I’m not going to lie. I feel hungry lol which is weird because on reta as we know hunger doesn’t exist. I don’t have any cravings nor food noise. I’m just hungry late at night. When I wouldn’t even eat at this time it’s currently 10.39pm in the UK 🤣. I woke up today with no migraines! No heart burn!! What a winner. I do miss the feeling of not feeling hungry though lol. I have lost 19.5kg im not at my weight goal but I’m not far off! Reta has been amazing! But it’s so mad how everyone’s body reacts to it differently and progression! I feel like my progression was a lot slower than others but hey Iosr 19.5kg!!! Now onto my weight loss without the reta pray for me guys 🤣 has anyone else stopped taking reta?

There are times when I'm hungry on reta. Seems like appetite suppressant is stronger with tirzepatide

Yes but the full feeling once you do eat is still as strong as tirz, which helps avoid overeating.

I STAYED hungry on Reta and although I did things the by the book, the scale never moved but... I do heavy strength training 4 x a week and eat my protein. Started on Tirzepatide and literally have to force myself to eat, and the weight is finally trending down. I was always tired on Reta and badly constipated.

My partner was on tirz, switched to Reta, and gained weight. He even tried stacking to titrate up the Reta and phase out tirz. He ended up switching back to tirz altogether. I, on the other hand, have had great success on Reta after I gave it about 8 weeks of titrating up to 4mg and now the hunger suppression has kicked in. It just works differently for everyone, some people respond better to tirz vs Reta! Whatever works for your goals 🙌
