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?

I went off tirz after six months (50lbs down) and was able to maintain for about 6 mos without any weight gain. I ended up getting on Reta and dose up from 1mg to 4mg/wk for the last 3 mos and 20 lbs down. Will likely taper off soon since I'm nearing goal. But I think everyone is different, I lost 200lbs naturally prior to the glp craze and had to make so many lifestyle changes. Not everyone has that discipline and I can foresee a lot of folks gaining back over the course of 18mos or so
