Hello

A 60-year-old man here.

My height is 1.89 (6'3") and my weight used to be 140Kg (308 Lbs)

My journey began 3 months ago, on 8 June 2026.

Reta 1 mg was my starting dose, then the following week I titrated to 2 mg.

For 3 weeks I remained on 2mg, yet the food noise kept bothering me a lot.

Once I introduced the 2mg of tirzepatid, things have been fine ever since.

No side effect has ever occurred for me.

So at present: 2mg Reta plus 2 mg tirz.

In 3 months I dropped 18Kg (40 Lbs).

My diet is typically very low carb, and during week days I typically eat one meal a day.

There is nothing fancy in it for me, it is my habit regardless.

Beyond long walks with the dog, I do not exercise.

My plan is to start at the gym in begin october.

Regards
 
Hey there, another Belgian!

Welcome, brother. Dropping 40 lbs over 3 months is impressive. Seems like things have gone pretty smoothly for you up to now. Best of luck with the gym in October, and welcome to the forum!

Hello

When it comes to side effecs, my approach is to keep my peps. at the lowest level I can. Also worth remembering: cutting down on carbs has an impact on appetite too. My 2 cents are that reta or tiz should only be an help. but anyway, wonderful help.

hope you'll go well.

It appears that quite a few of us have recently landed on 2mgT + 2mgR as the ideal combination. May you achieve the results you're after while avoiding any unwanted effects. Seems like you already have a solid handle on everything : )
