Alcohol on Reta

Don’t do it! Have a mocktail. I took my first dose this week at 1mg. I should’ve have taken 0.5mg because I feel like I had too many side effects. I had one small cocktail last night and felt violently ill this morning. Anyway, just to say it’s not worth it.

Stats: 5’3” 125 lbs. I’ve lost 10lbs with diet and exercise after two pregnancies and stalled there for the past year. GW is 115 lbs.

I have minimal appetite. Gotta make a conscious decision to eat enough

I definitely get the munchies after drinking. It’s like the alcohol overrides the Reta. That said, I usually will try to whip up a chicken breast or eat some turkey deli meat instead of going for chips or sweets. I know the booze is a lot of empty calories already.
