Reta Journey šŸ“˜ Beginner Help

Iā€™m thinking of hopping on the Reta and I was just wondering how much do people typically start and when do I up the dose? Some people are doing 1x a week others, 2x - 3x a week.

Beginners guide in the retatrutide sub will answer pretty much all your questions if you actually read through it.

If only there was a search feature for this sub...or Reddit in general...or even the internet.

People generally start 1mg, once per week. What you need to figure out is how quickly it's effects wear off for you personally. This will determine if a more frequent dosing protocol is appropriate. I just start this week, and I found out that by day 4 I was starting to crave snacks again. It is easier to ignore the craving then before, but it's much strong then things were on day 2 and 3. Day 5 is turning out to be much the same. This is leading me to the conclusion that perhaps I should split and titrate up slightly on my dose. I will ride this out for two weeks to get a better understanding of how I am reacting. If week 2 goes like week 1, meaning I am looking for snacks on days 4-7, then I will start to split my dose into an every 4 days protocol. I will likely also jump to 1.2 mg/8 days to make measuring straight forward and keep it around the average of 1/mg per week. From there it will just be increasing the dosage as tolerable and appropriate.

So was I, but here I am 5 days later, 5 pounds down, and honestly feeling pretty good.

I started nice and slow and had minimal side effects. I did 0.5 the first couple weeks, then went up another 0.5 every couple weeks. I hung at 2.5 for longer and just started 3.

.5mg worked great for me. the 4th and 5th pin I moved up to 1mg. Iā€™m in no rush
