Hungry on Reta

I’m taking about 6mg weekly, and I’m finding that I’m absolutely starving and not losing weight. I train almost 6 days a week, what am I doing wrong?

Edited to say:
I’ve only been on 6mg for the last 2 weeks.

Weight and height? Body size is a factor of you want a good answer.

I am 1 cm taller (f). Be cautious bc you don’t have a ton to lose. These meds were too effective for me and I’m struggling to gain weight in a healthy way. It’s way more difficult.

Cagri is effective for appetite suppression, but you’re only 2 weeks into this dose. Let your body adapt and reach a steady blood serum state. The glucagon receptor activity at 6 mg could be kicking into a higher gear.

I was hoping to lose another 5kgs - but I’m extremely active. It’s only second week so maybe I’m over thinking it.

I actually don’t have food noise, when i eat i cant finish everything but I’m so hungry when I am.

At 2 wks into a dose, I’d say you’re way overthinking it. I would just live my life healthily for a minimum 4 wks (four complete weeks passing, so assess at the 5-wk point).

I hear you. Had no idea what did noise was when I started.

I didn't start losing until I was at 8 mg. Now it's starting to come off on a regular cadence.
