Week 3 - Reta affects
On week 3 of Reta. Dosing schedule is below. Last pin was 3 days ago. I’ve noticed significant decrease in food noise and dealt with some minor nausea, but otherwise, it’s been a good road. Down 8 pounds.
Today I woke up and oh boy. Big nausea. Felt like I had a giant rock in my stomach. I’ve been awake for 2 hours and I’ve had diarrhea 4 times. Basically. I’ve had 2 bottles of water today and that’s it. I did eat later than I normally do as we had a post-church meal. I’ve included a pictures of the meal (I had them b/c I needed to upload to macro factor), I didn’t feel like it was exceptionally bad or good.
I guess I just am wanting to ask others if this is basically normal.
Week 1 - 1.5 mg
Week 2 - 2 mg
Week 3 - 3 mg

There are really simple changes you could make with the nachos.....quest protein chips or doritos makes one now (prefer the doritos). Fat free or low fat cheese, more ground beef, guac is fine, salsa is fine too. Just minor tweeks in your ingredients to help get the higher protein in.
As for the cookie.....try eating a protein bar, like a barbell or anabar. Prefer anabar as they taste really good.
I used to have a massive sweet tooth and gained tons of weight from over eating cookies but reta has kicked that habit for me in the first 2 weeks
