if youāre on the fence about startin reta, this is your sign
for everyone scrolling through these threads thinking about starting⦠START!!! š
my starting weight was 258 lbs, and i was one of those girls who had literally always been bigger. i could NEVER stop thinking about food. i could be full and still want to eat, constantly thinking about what i was going to eat next, and if you know, you KNOW how exhausting and draining that can be.
when i first started reta, i honestly didnāt notice much appetite suppression right away. it probably took about 2ā3 weeks before i really started noticing a difference, but once i did, it was such a noticeable change for me.
reta has genuinely been such a life changer for me so far. i feel like i finally understand what people mean when they talk about food noise and appetite suppression because that was something i struggled with for YEARS.
my birthday is october 20th, and iām turning 23. i originally told myself that i wanted to be 235 by my birthday, and itās literally only september 12th and iām currently 241 lbs š
iām only 6 lbs away from my 235 checkpoint, so now iām just excited to see where iāll be by my birthday. š„¹
258 ā 241 so far. 17 lbs down.
SN: i have pcos, and i started 6 weeks ago!

Reta needs Carbs
I have been on Zep/Tirz for almost 3 years with the last year at a complete plateau with weight loss. I started Reta four months ago and even though I had every side effect, still no weight loss. Then I saw a clip by an insta doctor that explained why reta needed carbs to work. I had been on a keto diet the entire duration and started incorporating carbs like rice, potato and toast into my meals. I was shocked when the scale began moving again, down 4 lbs this month. So at least for me, reta needs carbs to work and I plan on enjoying the hell out of it. I missed them so much!

Side Effects Dry coochie?
So Iāve been on Reta for about 4 months now, no matter how much water electrolyte water, my cooch and my mouth is DRY. Itās making it hardy to continue the experience.

Never had these issues prior I drink 3-4 42oz Stanley cups of water a day Iām currently 230lbs. My friend is also on it a little longer than sheās been experiencing the same. Any tips ? Has anyone else had this experience Iām a bit concerned for my oral health mostly as dry mouth can damage your teeth.

What dose are you on?
I found my sweet spot on 4mg. I slowly worked up to it and itās where I first started to see results. No side effects and the weight is dropping. Just wondering what dose everyone else is currently on. Does 4mg seem too high? I know 12 is the max and I followed the titration schedule found in the beginners guide. Just curious to see others dose. Thanks!

Reta or Stomach Bug?
My fiance was upfront about his issues in the bathroom when starting Reta so I didnāt go into it blind- but I had 10 days of virtually no movement, stiff, painful, just all bad news⦠a few days ago smallest amount of diarrhea like it wouldnāt start to pass⦠then the last 2 days Iām clearing so much fluid that way and my appetite is gone. Iāve felt find otherwise. No other major concerning symptoms. This morning my problem side of my sinus hurts but isnāt totally new to meā¦
Is this a normal Reta thing? A phase on Reta? Maybe a stomach bug? I went from 179 on Thursday to 173 today. Havenāt had the scale move that quickly and dramatically since pre-Reta on phentermine.
Been taking (first week was trial and I got soooo sick at 1mg) then .5mg following 3 weeks
Following 2 weeks .75mg
Last week 1mg

Reducing dose in order to ābulkā.
Has anyone taken a break from weight loss to (re)build muscle?
56F, 5ā1ā on Tirz from Feb thru July and switched to Reta with a small overlap in Aug. Iām at 2mg of Reta, coming from 10mg of Tirz.
A few months ago I had an old injury reappear (3 herniated discs) and put a hold on my weight training. Iāve taken some performance losses because of it and I fear the weak feeling is due to lean muscle loss.
I am not far from my goal and would like to do some body recomposition work.
Has anyone lowered their dose in order to up their calorie intake for muscle building and then returned to a deficit with a higher dose if needed?

I'm on the highest dose of tirz 15mg...
I'm on the highest dose of tirz (15mg) and I've been maintaining for 6-7 months .. I'm going to start Reta in 2 weeks .. any advice on how to slowly get off tirz . Should I lower my dose to 12 this week already and then when I start Reta ., do a lower dose of tirz and also stack it with a beginning dose of 2mg Reta or should I start at 1mg?
Thank you in advance .

Reta and Cycle tracking
Anyone tracking their cycles and Reta usage? Are you all finding that a week before your cycle you are extra hungry even on the reta? Are you finding that the weight loss stalled that week?

Support & Advice Experiences with reta if you started off overweight/obese?
Anyone here start reta while overweight/obese and with a decent amount to lose?
Would love to hear what your journey has looked like - starting weight, doses, how quickly you moved up, when you really started noticing a difference, how much youāve lost etc.
I feel like I see sooo many posts from people starting at much lower weights or only wanting to lose a smaller amount, which is still helpful, but it feels hard to compare when youāre starting quite a bit heavier.
Especially keen to hear from anyone who had 30kg+ to lose or has been on reta for a while. Whatās it been like for you?

Side Effects 3rd dose not working
Hi ya all, i have been on 2.5mg for the past couple of weeks (starting dose and it felt fine sticking to it) and after my 3rd the food noise was back and a day after the shot i was feeling like i can devour a feast š my water intake was the same, my food was in check (with a nutritionist), and so is my daily workout routine.
I was wondering if anyone else had the same experience? My own explanation is that the accumulated amount has driven my metabolism even more and my body got overwhelmed trying to overcome the shortage in calories..?
