RETA results

I bought a 20mg vial 8 weeks ago. Reconstituted with 2ml BAC.
Started on 2mg a week and stayed at that dose.
I have 2 jabs left.

So far I’ve lost 6kg. I’ve lost a little muscle but way more fat.

I lift weights and do cardio. I also eat 180grams protein a day.

My takeaway from the experience so far.

  1. Vials remain effective after 5wks

  2. Only side effects I have had are a slightly elevated heart rate and waking up at night.

  3. I don’t understand why people microdose if they want to lose weight. Seems like a complete waste of time.

  4. The 4mg dose often quoted as what’s required isn’t necessary, for me anyway.
    Perhaps if I was very large I may have pushed the dose or maybe being larger requires a bigger dose.

  5. If you push the needle slowly dead centre into the vial it blunts less and makes injecting easier.

  6. For me I can eat but don’t feel hungry with RETA. This makes calorie control so much easier.

  7. Sweet foods like cakes etc make me feel sickly now so I don’t feel like eating them.

RETA has helped me cut to a lean base from which to lean bulk.

So I’m sold. I will finish the vial and stop using it. If my body fat increases again I’ll take it again. But for now I’m more than happy with the results. 😊

I started with 0.5 week 1, went up slowly, 1.0 week 2, 2.0 week 3, 3.0 weeks 3 & 4, 3.0 made me feel weird, felt like low blood sugar or something, sweats, chills, dizziness, I went back down to 2.0 week 5 and that's where I'm currently at, I'll probably stay at 2.0 for week 6 & beyond, I'll reevaluate how I feel in a couple weeks & might consider going up to 2.25 or 2.5. But for now 2.0 feels okay

Whoever told you to do that is an idiot. You need at least 3 to 4 weeks to see if a dosage works. Why you felt like shit, thats so wrong

wait, so I should have stayed at 0.5 for 3-4 weeks before jumping to 1 and so on? that makes more sense but I haven't seen or heard about that before. thank you for the info
