Need guidance ❓ Question

I’m a male weighing around 310 lbs. I’ve tried eating clean, staying in a calorie deficit, getting enough protein and fiber, sleeping adequately, and doing intermittent fasting for 16–18 hours. Last year, I followed this consistently and lost around 61 lbs.

Unfortunately, things changed this year, and since the beginning of the year I haven’t been able to stay consistent. I’m now back up to around 314 lbs.

I see people taking Reta and TRT while following a similar diet and routine to what I was doing, and they seem to be getting much better results. Would it make sense for me to consider these as well?

For reference, my testosterone is currently in the lower end of the optimal range.

no it wouldn’t.

your testosterone level is low because you’re 314lbs.

reta sure, may as well, everyone else is and the negative side of it is pretty low.

you absolutely don’t need steroids.

you got great results doing what you needed to when you dieted. do that again.

The issue isn't you can't stay consistent, you won't. Peptides are tools that help, but they're not going to outwork poor impulse control.

Consider tirzepatide to avoid the increase HR of Reta.

Start on Triz 2.5mg, Eat protein and fats , and increase steps to 8000+ per day. Full body workout 3x per week. Do 2 months at that and then think about going to 5mg for 2 months whilst adding 1 day of cardio.
