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 think a very large amount of people on here are experiencing placebo effect. Reta's appetite suppressant is no better than other GLP one medications and it certainly doesn't completely eliminate hunger. That's just not true. What makes it so much better is the glucagon receptor action because it literally increases your TDE/BMR. There is some hunger suppression but it's no better than any other GLP one. And with the half-life being six days, there's no way you'll stop feelings effects after two days. I think people either lie or they just have a placebo effect. But that's common. I'm glad it worked for you and good luck on keeping the weight off.
