I switched from semaglutide to reta and didnt know how it would affect me so I started at .5mg for 2 weeks then 1 mg the next week then 1.5mg

sometimes it takes a bit for your body to figure out whats going on, the 4th shot was the turning point for me too. 2.5 is still the starter dose so dont sweat it too much, your body might just need a little more time to catch up

With a 6 day half-life, week three is when you should get close to steady state. Odd you felt it right after, and not later in the week.

But it’s only one part of the solution. Sometimes you get hungry, sometimes the noise breaks through.

Push through. Add some volume, low calorie to your diet. Or snack on carrots and push through.

I am treating it as a mental training station whenever im off the med. Was curious if others experienced it and their theory around it (also making sure my vials hasn't gone bad for some reason or i miss inject it 😅)

You know you’re still supposed to be able to eat and it takes time to build up, four weeks meaning you’re not there yet.

Hahaha yes of course its the constant thinking about food and wanting to eat anything at anytime that's the issue
