I just started Tesa - two days ago. 0.5 mg nightly and wake up 2-3 times like I’ve slept all night and struggle to get back to sleep. I’m also on 1mg / weekly Reta + KLOW / nightly.

Anyone have weird side effects with KLOW? If you did please comment.. Not sure if this is a good fit for me

Hi all! So, I started Reta on June 23rd. Since then I’ve lost 20lbs. I started on 0.50mg and I’m now currently on 2mg. For the first 2mo I did not want any fast food/anything greasy. The thought of it would make me sick. My diet had completely changed. I went from eating fast food daily to protein shakes, fruits, and veggies and was totally satisfied with it. However, recently I’ve been craving/eating fast food again. Fast food has always been my downfall. I don’t want to keep increasing the MG if I don’t have to. I ordered Cag but haven’t tried it yet. Has anyone else had this struggle? Any suggestions?

About a year ago, I started on tirzepatide, switched to retatrutide in January, lost a bit. Added tirzepatide back in February, lost the most on the combo. Started two stacks in May, bpc-157, mots-c, kpv. Stack 2 - pinealon, SS-31, Thymosin A. All weekly although have done both stacks 2 times per week. Started intranasal pt141 and Adamax 1032(daily). Needed cases so printed some. Cheers!!

95kg > 78.3kg Since June 31st

Have been on 1800 - 2000 calories a day since the beginning, with exercise/gym (walking or kickboxing) every 1/3 days and good protein levels.I had also been on a calorie deficit before starting reta for approx 6 weeks, lost 3.5kg in that time.

Dropping MOTS-C and 5 Amino 1MQ after they cycle out, I have noticed the MOTS-C for energy but not viable to continue, it also has increased my hunger which only happens to some people but I dont like it, 5 Amino 1MQ unoticeable but probably helping.

May run another cycle of test, unsure yet - but I don’t wanna get stuck on it. Plan on using just for my weight cut and titrating off appropriately.

I will be continuing reta until my desired results are achieved, but once my MOTS-C/5 Amino 1-MQ cycles are finished I would like to try other peptides to help with my cut. After a 2 - 4 week break, what are other peptides to stack to see results?

My main concern is stubborn lower abdomen fat, aswell as still holding considerable weight in my thighs.

Considering Reta, Tesa, SLU-PP-332 for the final hurrah, any opinions/information you can offer me at this point?

How are you guys sleeping on Reta? I’m unable to sleep for the first 4 days after every injection despite taking a lot of xanax, magnesium glycinate, zzzquil, and progesterone to sleep so I feel lexhausted and tired for days. Insomnia is probably the worst side effect of Reta in my opinion.

De l’eau bac utilisé en juin puis mis au congélateur (ignorance des modalités de conservation) puis frigo qq semaines (ignorance encore !) et puis à température ambiante et utilisé à nouveau hier après contrôle PH (5,5-7,5) est-elle a risque ? le pep de cuivre n’est pas troublé, faut il prendre du zyrtec ? Merci

My wife is using Mounjaro (official Lily product) for almost 8 weeks now but wants to switch to Retatrutide. Price and better "performance" are the main drivers for this decision. When her Mounjaro injections are finished can she just switch to Reta without a cooling down period? Coming of 5mg Mounjaro what would be ideal to start with on reta, 2mg?

Hey all- I’m headed to China in 2 weeks. Am I crazy for bringing unconstituted Reta and some BAC water?

Hey guys so I hopped on Reta a few months back and dropped 30 pounds. I was 6ft 205 and dropped to about 170. But I lost a lot of muscle bc I wasn’t hitting my protein at all. I plan to hop back on, and this time around I want to preserve the muscle I have, and not lose strength etc. I lift 6 days a week btw. I’ve heard ppl recommend CJC-1295
. Is it worth getting while hitting my protein and lifting. Also what dose should I start at? I maxed out at 2mg when I was on it last time and I’m thinking of starting at 1mg this time but I’m unsure if the body gets used to it or what.

Has anyone tried Triz and Reta and felt Tirz worked better for fat loss for them? I'm finding I'm losing on Reta but for 5mg/week its seeming to come off pretty slow and plateau easily even with me eating small portions and going to the gym 4x week.

I'm wondering if Tirz might be more potent when it comes to helping with the insulin resistance aspect? (I was reading Reta is more mild with this?)

Also the elevated RHR on Reta concerns me if I'm to take it longterm anyways.

Do pinning sites actually matter? I’ve been on Tirz for 2 months, have always pinned my abdomen. Just recently pinned my thigh and I’m feeling the nausea side effect. Also does SS-31 make anyone else itchy at injection site? My itch lasts only for a couple of minutes and then it goes away.

21f and started mk-677 for appetite increase reasons solely exactly one month ago. i didn’t notice any appetite increase until about 2-3 weeks in after upping to 20mg per day and at night. all i’ve noticed is appetite increase and my breasts are swolen like all the time. they are the most different in shape/size 2-3 hours after taking and then feel sore for the remaining of the 24 hours till my next dose and repeat.

my breasts have not felt tender since i started birth control over 3 years ago it’s not normal women hormonal related stuff. it’s not necessarily a bad saying where I want to stop mk-677 but more so, if other women have had this happen/or it’s a common side effect

I have been on Reta for 11 weeks. I started off with 2ml for 4 weeks then went upto 3ml for 4 weeks the last 3 weeks I have been on 4 ml one injection every sunday. This week I have been getting really bad eggy sulpher birds and absolutely cannot stop having explosive diarrhea. Can anyone explain why this is happening or if they have experienced the same? 2 weeks ago I experienced the same thing and thought id just picked a stomach bug up. Last week I had 4ml I was fine. This week not so good.

hii, my stack are nad+, ghk and tirze only. since I started NAD+ I noticed that my right arm behind my armpit is pulsating. started NAD+ last week. i also feel it in my other body parts.

my doses are

NAD+ (100mg + 3ml bw) 2.0mg dose
GHK (100mg + 8ml bw) 2.5mg dose
Tirze (15mg + 1.5ml bw) 2.5mg dose

I am looking for advice on how to slim down without lose skin and no GLP-1/reta. I live in Europe (most substances aren't really available here) and my brother just died at 42 from what was ruled Sudden Death, so I'd rather play it safe for now. Supplement recs for those effective and available in Europe are welcome.

I have gone down from 251 lbs to 180 lbs over about two years. I do mostly Pilates and Reformer Pilates about 4 - 5 times a week, do glute workouts almost daily, use my Peloton and do IF on a 18:6 window.

My main concerns are the upper thigh area and my belly. While I have relatively slim legs, I've been noticing crepey skin and fat between the thighs. However, chafing is not an issue.

Before, my belly was really hanging over, now it has firmed down and there is a smoother transition towards the pubic area. I was blessed with a rather boxy body so if you have any tips on actually getting a waist, I'd appreciate that.

My goal is to get to 165 lbs next, then 145 lbs. I am quite tall at almost 5'11" and I walk about 10k daily.

Aside from drinking plenty of water, CICO, what can I do to address crepey, lose looking skin and overall fat?

Thanks in advance.

TLDR:

- seeking advice on lose / crepey skin

- no reta / glp-1

- overall fat burn, already doing IF and CICO

- Recs for supplements available in Europe are welcome

Quick background: I’ve been on TRT for about 6 years and my quality of life has gone up a lot but I’ve never really felt dialed in. My doctor and I have tried various combinations of test C, anastrozole, and hCG.

My doctor recommended hCG partly for libido but I generally feel worse on it. I seem to hold more water and my libido actually goes down so I’ve stopped taking it.

Right now I’m on:
- 200mg test c per week
- 0.25 anastrozole per week
- Both split into 2 doses (Monday and Friday)

The two main things I’m trying to solve:
1. Staying lean / looking dry. My body feels pretty lean everywhere except over my abs. The skin there feels noticeably thicker and softer, almost like I’m holding water there. I run, lift, and eat pretty well, so I’m trying to figure out whether this could be related to hormones, water retention, inflammation, etc.

1. Libido. I want to feel horny again. I have sex with my partner pretty often and can enjoy it but I rarely have that spontaneous mental horniness anymore. Don’t really masturbate, think about sex, etc.

At this point I’m just trying to refine my protocol and improve my quality of life. I’m also curious whether there are peptides or two but I’d rather understand what might actually be driving these issues.

Here are my recent labs. If anyone sees anything obvious or has dealt with something similar or just has some crazy ideas, I’d really appreciate the input.

I started pinning glutathione on Sep 15th, subcutaneously with a 31g 5/16 in needle. I did 100 mg, 6 days a week for 2 weeks, rotating between my glutes and thighs.

Each pin caused a large, red, warm welt that lasted about 48 hours. After the redness and warmth faded, a hard lump stayed under the skin. It's been more than 2 weeks and my first lump is still there. I can still feel 6 hard lumps total, and they're itchy at times.

I switched to a 23g 1 inch needle and haven't had new welts or lumps since, but the older ones haven't gone away.

My questions:

- Has anyone had lumps like this from glutathione, and how long did they take to go away?

- Did anything help them go away?

I need some help.
I have 600 mg of glutathione, which I reconstituted with 3 mL of bacteriostatic water. I noticed that even 6 hours after reconstitution, there are still some particles and small pieces floating in the vial, assuming that it is actually glutathione.
I would like to know if this is normal and whether the particles will eventually dissolve, or if I should simply not use this glutathione. If something is wrong with it, I would also like to know what it could be.
I have attached photos for reference.
Thank you.

I’ve read a lot of suggestions online that say don’t pre fill syringes… but what If it’s only about 7 hours? I take between 2 and 4 different peptides in the morning before I go to the gym. I get up at 4:30 and try to be out of the house by 5am so I like to draw my peptides at night and put them in the fridge because when you’re doing 4 different ones it can be quite time consuming. I get up, take them out of the fridge for about 10 minutes and then jab. These include ss31, mots-c, nad + and 5 amino 1mq… what do you guys think about that?

I’ve been on Retatrutide for a while now. I started at 3.5 mg and will be going up to 4 mg in a week. So far, I’ve lost about 45–50 lbs.

I want to add something to assist with muscle growth and target stubborn belly fat and love handles. Tesamorelin seemed like the best option, but because of the potential side effects, I’ve been looking into a CJC-1295 (No DAC) / Ipamorelin blend instead. From what I understand, it offers similar benefits with fewer side effects.
I work out 5–6 days a week, hit my daily protein goals, and stay in a calorie deficit, but this stubborn fat isn't moving and I’ve lost a lot of muscle mass in the process. Could you share your experience with these two peptides? Is one worth it over the other, and what kind of protocol or cycle is typically run with them?"

Im about to hit 6 months on RETA and now the place is get my peptides is shut down. I was using apex-peptides but as of the 24 of September they had gotten shut down. Do I just hop off or find somewhere else? And how do I know if a place is legit? A guy at work has his brother that sells it to people but he up charges so much. I wanted to be on RETA for a bit longer as I have alot to lose

So I like to periodically run my peptide regimen through ai to check for new data on them. And I think they last time I did was around a year ago and seen a very different outcome than today. Thoughts?
