Hi everyone,

I'm a 38yr mom with a toddler, living in Rotterdam, the Netherlands.

Let me give you a rundown of how things have gone for me so far:

My first experience with Reta was in june, and it lasted roughly 7 weeks. I went in totally blind and clueless, which led to a bunch of errors! I bought a pen plus a 10mg vial through a local reseller. Since I didn't know the pen needed to be refrigerated, I left the whole package sitting out of the fridge for around a week. My starting dose was 0.5mg, and I got zero effects from the pen. After 3 weeks, I figured the Reta must have degraded from that first week out of the fridge, so I threw it away.

Next, I mixed up the vial and kept going with the 0.5 dose, but it still did nothing for me. To make a long story short, I worked my way up to 2 mg, and that's when I finally dropped a bit of weight and experienced some appetite suppression. Once the vial was done after about 3 weeks, I had nothing left, because I got scammed on discord when I tried to put in my first order straight from China.

Anyway, today my kits finally arrived after my second try (this one worked) at ordering directly from a Chinese vendor that has a European warehouse. I just injected myself with 2mg, so we'll see how it goes. Oh right, I've also signed up for a group test.

I'm looking forward to learning more and sharing my experience with all of you!
 
Hey there, glad to have you!

I've just begun using the pen system too. Have you stuck with the pen for your research, or have you moved over to a siringe?

I moved over to a syringe. That first pen I got came already mixed.

These days I just do the reconstitution on my own.
 
Hai. Goed om te merken dat er meer Nederlanders op deze site zitten. Iedereen verder is ontzettend aardig, maar chats die specifiek NL zijn, zijn toch wel prettig

Hi everyone,

I am a 38yr mother of a toddler from Rotterdam the Netherlands.

Here is a summary of my journey so far:

I first used Reta in june for about 7 weeks. I was completely new and uninformed and made several mistakes! I ordered a pen and a 10mg vial from a local reseller. I let the entire package out of the fridge for about a week because I had no idea the pen had to be refrigerated. I started with 0.5mg and felt absolutely nothing from the pen. After 3 weeks I decided the Reta had to have gone bad because it was outside of the fridge the first week so I tossed it in the trash.

I then reconstituted the vial and continued the 0.5 dose but still felt nothing. Long story short, I titrated to 2 mg and finally lost some weight and had some appetite suppression. After about 3 weeks I finished the vial and was left without because I got scammed on discord trying to place my first order directly from China.

Well today I finally received my kits after my second (and successful) attempt at buying directly from a Chinese vendor with a European warehouse. I just pinned myself with 2mg so we’ll see what happens. Oh yea and I have also joined a group test.

I hope to increase my knowledge and share my journey with you all!

Hoi, ook ik ben nieuw hier op dit forum. Laten we hopen dat we met z'n allen van elkaar kunnen leren! Heb je de overstap gemaakt naar zelf mixen?

Yep, I handle the mixing on my own these days.

I'm a Rotterdam mom too!
 
Welcome to the forum!

Just wondering — how does reta stand in NL right now? In my area it's still in clinical trials and hasn't reached the market, which is why people look at other routes to research the compound.

My own background is only with tirz, though I followed the monthly titration without speeding it up. So far the results have me happy, and I doubt I'll need to reach max dosing to keep getting results. My guess is reta titration works the same way.
