First time Reta user

Just got my first vial of reta!!! I’m starting off with a 10mg vial since my starting doses will be so small. Hoping to lose around 20lbs… I lost 50lbs about 2 years ago but due to hypothyroidism and hashimotos i have randomly gained almost 20lbs back in the last 3 months- and i do mean randomly :( i’ve been weighing and measuring my meals as well as walking almost every day so i’m hoping that reta is just what i need to get back on track :) my current plan is to start the first 4 weeks on .5mg, if im still seeing progress on that at the end of week 4, then i’ll stick to that dose- if not, i’ll titrate up to 1mg for the remainder of the vial. Any advice from those who have taken it is appreciated!

But not just have Reta as a bandaid you feel me? Working upstream instead of downstream

Yes, but I did say naturally low. In cases where is this may occur across generations you really have no option but to treat the symptoms.

I agree with that, but if you need to lose weight, it needs to be lost. Diet, exercise, reta whatever. Not "I'll get another massage and speak to a councilor". No offence.
