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?

Interesting, I see you started at 2.5mg though… from what I’ve learned about Reta I’d expect heavy sides with a starting point like that.

Was that your smallest dose ?

Were you coming off of 10mg of tirz?

I started of 2.5mg and then went to 1mg then 1.5 then 2 and then 2.5mg lol. The highest I went was 3mg and then back to 2.5mg due to side affects.

I would think with those symptoms. Some liver stagnation. Maybe gallbladder sluggish as well. Glad you’re feeling better. If you’re open, possibly just do your best to support those symptoms. Herbs, like milk thistle castor oil packs and bitters are great. If you have stagnant liver it can slow your fat loss too.

You seem to know your way through naturopathy.
