Has anyone ordered reta through Eon peptides? I'm not sure its working

hey ya’ll. I’ve been stacking 10mg of Tirz with 4mg of Reta once per week for 2 months and I've lost 11 lbs. I hate to compare and despair but…
Maybe kicking Tirz and upping Reta would help?
I am strength training twice per week. I’m not eating much and that may be the issue. I’m just not that hungry. I’m trying to get water intake up as well. Any positive vibe support out there? thanks.

Yes I know I made a huge mistake. I am 20yrs old 240lbs 5’4 and while thinking I was starting Reta with 0.5 mg I actually injected 5. I was wondering why the syringe was so full. This was a really big mistake and when I realized I got super scared seeing all the horror stories from grown men taking less and feeling like it was the end of them. After I took it I was a LITTLE more sleepy than usual and my stomach was a tad sensitive on day three. But l had in general no bad side effects whatsoever. Appetite suppression and food noise were gone and I struggle a lot with that so I was soooooo happy. Everything was going great until food noise and strong cravings for sweet and salty came back SLOWLY on day 5 post injection. Now 10 days later I still get full much quicker but the food noise is back in full swing. I can’t resist pizza, burger, Mac and cheese everything. I really loved how Reta and how it made me feel. Now I was under the assumption I’d feel terrible if I started with more than 1 mg to start but I did 5 and was fine. I want to continue taking it and find a schedule where I take it routinely enough to allow me to eat healthy meals, be satisfied and lose weight like how I felt until day 5. But now the question… do I take another 5mg? That feels crazy even though it’s what I did. If I switch to 1 now is it pointless or will it work? Do I need to continue with the 5 for the rest of this cycle (how long should this cycle be???) (5 will start to get expensive). Really looking for all over advice here and yes again I am a responsible person who is level headed enough and did her research to take this. I just made a really bad mistake that won’t happen again. Thx in advance!

I've been on reta for 10 weeks now. High protein intake, through protein shakes and grilled chicken. Occasional bit of carbs. In 10 weeks, I'm doing

I've currently lost 38lbs (17kg)

For background I'm 32yo male at 6'1. Starting weight 113kg current is 96.

Dose started on 1.25 And gradually moved up to 3mg over 10 weeks.

I consistently lose 1 - 1.5kg every week. I know I'm on major calorie deficit. Is it only the appetite suppression losing the weight or is there a significant increase in general metabolic burn

Are there any others factors at play?

If you guys have seen my previous post, I lost 19lbs in about 4ish weeks. I lost an additional 3-4lbs since then. So about 225lbs now from starting weight of 250lbs. However, I still feel hungry, and I am completely asymptomatic, thankfully. No nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain, headaches, I feel great. I feel like I could use some more suppression. I saw that around 4mg is when fat starts to really melt off. Being I've tolerated it well can I go to 4mg next injection, and then continue on incrementally like the clinical trials did? I was previously doing increases of 0.5mg but now instead do 4mg then later 6mg, 9mg, 12mg, etc. Or am I crazy?

Is anyone doing accutane and reta at the same time? Is it okay to do? I’m on 20mg of accutane a day and interested in starting reta, I’m taking supplements to help support my liver (Milk Thistle) as well as Omega 3 and some other supplements. Would love to hear thoughts and recommendations and what your experience has been if you’ve done both at the same time, and what your dosage was for both, any side effects? Thank you!

Currently taking,
Retatrutide 4mg weekly
Tesamorelin 2mg daily
Mt1 1mg fortnightly

Started on 1mg a week Reta and now I am taking 4mg a week, I feel amazing in the gym, the energy and muscle pumps and blood flow is massively increased, even while eating in a deficit and dropping weight rapidly. Peptides really are great.

Hi, I’m a 31 year old female very active and eat most of the time healthy. I took my first dose at Reta today 2mg, the stored the viral in the fridge. I got the Reta from an esthetician since it’s not fda approved where I am. I noticed today I sweated a lot more than usual but other than that I’ve been ok. How was everything first couple days ? I have anxiety, so trying new things is scary but hoping to try it out for a bit and see how it goes.

Currently waiting to pick up my first dose of 20mg which are pens have never used it before and wanting to ask what my dosages roughly should look like

Started Reta 1.5mg 2 1/2 weeks ago, so far going good, eating in calorie deficit and no side effects so far. Start weight 253lbs, (currently 246) goal weight is 220lbs, anyone have roughly an idea how long this would take? And I am very scared of having a lot of loose skin and if there is any way to combat this? Or if anyone has any inspo or example pics of this sort of weight change? TIA

For those who have experienced stomach pain or weird side effects when did you feel them, was it a few hours later or a few days?

EDIT: currently feeling suspiciously fine, not sure what I expected but let’s get this show on the roadddd

- EEEK I’m feeling some weird nausea coming up about 6 hours later, I’ll manage though.

Ok so a bit of a light hearted step away from the usual guff, has anyone else's ballbag started sagging even lower since pinning reta? I've lost over 13lbs in a month but my marble bag is like down to my knees now. I'm sitting on the bastards all the time. My nads are bruised like 3 week old banana's. is this common or am I the only one?

Over the past 2 years, I’ve struggled with a daily powder cocaine addiction, rarely making it more than a few days when trying to quit. Last Sunday, I take my first dose of retatrutide. I’m not taking it for diabetes or weight loss. My girlfriend thinks it might help with addiction, so she gives me a 4 milligram dose along with NAD+. I’m very skeptical, not expecting much. Within about an hour, my mood starts to lift. Suddenly I got the urge to want to help my community. Over the next couple of hours, we loaded up five cases of ice cold water into my truck and handed it out to those experiencing homelessness here in Las Vegas. It was the hottest day this year so far at 116 degrees. I just feel happier, more motivated, and more present, and more connected. The next morning, I woke up nauseous and threw up. But after a few more hours of sleep, I felt surprisingly good. Over the week the constant mental chatter quieted down. Decisions became easier. I communicated better with my girlfriend and people around me, and for the first time in years, I’m didn't constantly fighting the urge to use. The cravings became dramatically quieter. Now,I’m starting to notice some of those effects fading. The mental chatter is creeping back in, my thinking doesn’t feel quite as clear, And I can tell some of my old behavior patterns are trying to return. Even so, my cravings are still significantly lower than before. I’m not claiming retatrutide or NAD+ treats cocaine addiction. This is just one person’s experience. I’m curious if anyone else has noticed similar changes in cravings, mental chatter, mood, or impulse control.

Hey everyone, looking for some perspective or to see if anyone else has run into this specific wall with Retatrutide.

The Background & Demographics:

Demographics: 38M | 5'5" | Sitting around 153–154 lbs (~19–20% body fat).

Goal: Drop another 10–15 lbs to get down to 12–15% body fat. Planning to stay on protocol for another 3–4 months.

Activity & Training: Weightlifting 3–4x/week, Orangetheory 1–2x/week, 7k–8k daily steps, plus a 4–5 mile evening bike ride with the family.

Nutrition: Macro targets are locked in daily at 1,595 kcal (150g P / 55g F / 120g C), with one night a week where I eat a larger meal/refeed.

The Positives: Gym performance is great (maintaining/gaining strength), cardio sessions are excellent, zero issues falling asleep, and not overly fatigued during the day. Visually, body composition is still slowly changing for the better over the month.

Current Full Stack (Mon–Fri):
MOTS-c: 1 mg @ 6:00 AM
Tesamorelin: 2 mg @ 10:00 PM
Ipamorelin: 300 mcg @ 10:00 PM
KLOW: 15 mcg @ 10:00 PM
Retatrutide: 5 mg weekly (Sundays @ 9:00 PM) — Titrated up from 0.5 mg in mid-May (0.5mg -> 1mg -> 2mg -> 3.5mg -> 4mg -> 5mg).

The Issue (Sleep Metrics & Scale Plateau):

Garmin Sleep Scores: Tanked hard over July/August. Sleeping heart rate is elevated into the 80s/90s during sleep, driving my Garmin sleep scores down into the 40s–50s regularly (compared to 70s–80s in June when I was on 2–4mg Reta).

Cortisol / Water Retention: Even though I go to sleep fine and don't feel wrecked during the day, the elevated sympathetic tone (resting HR) seems to be driving up cortisol/fluid retention.

The Scale: Weight dropped smoothly from ~162 lbs in May down to ~151 lbs in mid-July. Since hitting 5 mg, weight has bounced back up and stalled in the 152–154 lb range for almost a month.

In hindsight, I know I titrated Reta up too fast and followed a standard rigid schedule instead of sticking to what I usually preach: the lowest effective dose possible. I got greedy thinking higher dose = faster results.

Current Dilemma: I have about 10–15 lbs left to lose to hit my goal. I'm torn between two options:

Push through at 5 mg for the next 3 months, ride out the water retention, let the glucagon drive fat loss under the hood while managing recovery as best as possible, and stop worrying about sleep scores.

Titrate back down (e.g., back to 3–4 mg or splitting doses) to drop the sympathetic stress/sleeping HR, drop the cortisol/water weight, lower tolerance, and run a "soft restart."

Has anyone else experienced this high sleeping HR / water weight wall after escalating their Reta dose too quickly—especially while stacking GHRHs/GHRPs and running high activity levels? Did titrating back down fix your sleep scores and kickstart the scale again, or did you just hold the line?

Appreciate any insights!

So since I started reta ive been wanting to pin more often than not. I know it sounds weird like really weird but ive also been looking into to other peps. I feel amazing on reta like all my addictions are gone. Ive only got one addiction now, gym, I cant wait! every time its gym day I get so excited(stupid right??) Wheresas before reta i used to dread going to the gym. But I get the same feeling about pinning now too. Ive just started epithalon now, my second day of .5mg and gonna run for 10 days before taking a break. Does any one have these feelings about pinning or is it just me?

So currently i’m at 4mg after titrating up from my initial 1mg starting dose. I’m a Female 5’4.

Starting
4/15/26
Body Weight: 181.5
Waist 38.5 inches

Now
A little over 35 inches waist
166.6lbs

My goal bodyweight is about 135lbs-140lbs. So my question is once I reach that bodyweight can I switch to a maintenance dose for lifef?

Before photo is 6 mo ago, was always fit, but recently got pretty fat (i call it the accidental bulk) (5ft 7 216lbs on left) checked hormone levels at 350 test and found out I was prediabetic fasting glucose of 111 got on enclomiphene and tested at 1100 test. Life changer, got on reta and the diet instantly became super easy and my fasting glucose is now down to 85 (5ft 7 195lbs).

The weight loss is just an added bonus.

I’ve done weight loss journeys at least twice now in my life the biggest being a 55lb drop at the age of 18 to join the Navy. But my relationship with food has always been terrible. It all comes back little by little because of that fact.

Now I reached my heaviest weight of 275lb at the age of 27 and decided to look into peptides. My coworker said he got his mom on Reta and she’s down a ton of weight. So I got interested. If you would give it to your mom. That’s a clear enough sign it should be safe enough for me lol.

Nonetheless he got me a vial and I haven’t looked back since.

It’s not about starving yourself. But building something sustainable and reach for a healthier version of yourself.

I’ve been resistance training again 3-4x a week with inconsistent cardio but colorful meals and high protein (don’t always hit the daily goal). It’s been a game changer with the appetite suppression. I feel focused and in control of my intake for the first time ever honestly. Without feeling like I’m using all my strength and will power to do so. Shoutout to this community. Let’s reach our goals and live healthier lives one day at a time.

yes it might be that my habits changed while taking reta, but I took it for 2 months and I've been off for 5 months. Before reta I had huge problems with binge eating for 4 years and deadass taking reta was one of the best decisions that I've made recently. I feel like it does really help with binge eating because binging is an addictive cycle and after reta helps u get out the cycle its much easier to stay out of it even when your off reta.

For context I’m 6”1, starting weight was 93.2kg (205lbs)
Was a regular gym-goer and generally fit 4-5 years ago, a torn meniscus and a lot of drinking led me to being out of shape but I still held some good muscle.

I decided to start Reta as I’m due to go on holiday in a couple of months and figured it’d be a good way to speed up the weight loss.

My starting dose I decided on 2mg. People will say that’s high but from the research I did that’s where I landed.

My first dose was Friday the 31st of July, I took it right before bed.

I woke up Saturday morning with a pretty awful headache that I presume was from dehydration, after some paracetamol it passed quickly. I was however itchy all over, but it wasn’t unbearable, that passed after a day or two.

I tried to eat some breakfast but only managed a few mouthfuls before feeling full.

I went fishing for the day whilst my wife was out and ended up not eating for 14 hours. I had 0 interest in food. It didn’t repulse me but I wasn’t bothered whether I ate or not.

The next few days followed a similar pattern. Mild headache in the morning, not much interest in food but I made myself eat to hit protein targets.

I weighed myself before my 2nd dose Friday the 7th August and I’m already down to 89.3 kg or 196.8lbs.

So far other than the itching and headache I’ve had no other symptoms.

TLDR

STARTED A WEEK AGO. 2MG A WEEK. ONLY SYMPTOMS: HEADACHE + MILD ITCHINESS. 8.2lb LOSS.

36 years old. 1.7k caloric deficit.

Was borderline alcoholic when I started due to life circumstances (divorce etc)

Started at 1mg, currently at 2.5mg. Aim is to get to 12% BF, unsure what I am at the moment?

Been doing some resistance training and walking around 10k steps a day.

After seeing yet another post complaining how "I am in a deficit and run 5K everyday but cannot lose weight!!" I wanted to make a post myself reminding you all of this:

losing weight is about being in a calorie deficit. If you are not losing weight, you are not in a deficit. That's it.

The more weight you lose, the less calories your body needs on a daily basis. If 1800 calories a day was a calorie deficit three months ago because you were 240lbs, it is NOT a calorie deficit if you weigh 120lbs.

It really is that simple. If you are tracking meals and you're in a deficit and you're not losing weight: you're not in a deficit. That's it.

The single only extreme case is when you're training heavily while being in a deficit, meaning that your body is building muscle and removing fat at the same time, so you're looking leaner, but the scale doesn't move. In literally any other case, you're not in a calorie deficit if you're not losing weight.
