For roughly 10 months I have been running a peptide stack that includes Reta and Tirz. My weight is down by about 40kg, and I have managed to build a fairly solid physique. My reason for joining this forum is twofold: to pass along what I have learned and to pick up knowledge from all of you.

I am eager to engage with everyone here.
 
Welcome aboard, and well done! Dropping 40kg is no small feat. I'd love to hear more about where your dose stands now and how you've been titrating while stacking Tirz/Reta.

Right now my routine is 6mg of Reta each Monday, plus 15mg of Tirz every Friday.

From what I can tell, Reta takes care of fat loss in ordinary conditions and stops me from putting on fat even when I eat until I'm satisfied, whereas Tirz is what handles appetite suppression.

My first peptide was Tirz (Mounjaro), and I moved the dose up every 4 weeks until I reached 15mg. During month 4, I found out about this market, made the switch to vials, and brought Reta in. At that stage, roughly 25kg had already come off.

The Inbody body composition analysis shows that the entire 40kg of weight loss came from body fat.

What's your experience with combining them? I've been considering adding tirz to my stack before increasing my reta dose further.

Sorry for taking so long to get back to you — I only just noticed this.

As of now, I'm still on the same stack I mentioned before. These days I let myself eat whatever I'm in the mood for when a craving hits, so the scale isn't moving much. My weight is either holding steady or drifting down a little. Honestly, at this point shedding more pounds would take either a big jump in my Zone 2 training volume or serious calorie control. (Height: 179cm, weight: 96kg, skeletal muscle mass roughly 49kg, body fat percentage near 13%.)

When it comes to losing weight or keeping it off, Reta appears to have the edge over Tirz. On the other hand, for quieting food noise, Tirz seems to beat Reta. That's the reason I combine the two.

Choosing between Tirz and Sema comes down to personal preference, in my view, but I'd strongly suggest going with Reta.
 
Incredible progress on shedding the pounds!

Did you notice any adverse reactions at those doses and/or when combining them?

Peptide usage appears to be less common among people in Asia. Alternatively, government regulations might be preventing active community activities from occurring.

Triz was my starting point. My first dose was 5mg; after 6 weeks I moved up to 7.5mg, then kept raising it by 2.5mg every 2 weeks until I hit 15mg. While on the 15mg Tirz, I added Reta into the mix.

During that first 5mg stretch of Tirz, digestive side effects lasted roughly 3 weeks, I believe. My burps carried a faint sulfur-like feeling. That has since disappeared.

On the days I take Tirz, I also still get mild diarrhea for around two days, though it's nothing serious. Honestly, I see it as confirmation that the peptide is doing its job in my body.

Great to hear you haven't run into any big problems 😀. Your body clearly took to the peptides nicely.
 
Nice job on dropping the weight.

Tirz isn't something I've tried, though Reta is, and for me it performs amazingly. My own dose is 1MG each week, yet I've seen firsthand that acquaintances taking 2.5mg every 3 days shed 30 Pounds within a month and a half.

Glad to have you here, and well done! Visiting Japan ranks #1 on my list of places to go! I'm really looking forward to going there someday and soaking up the culture

That does appear to be the case! My guess is that many of the usual skin-related items people purchase here can be obtained without difficulty as an IV at basically any skin clinic. That said, I have a hunch that peptides are being distributed via gyms, haha. When I signed up at a small gym, the owner handed out and also sold a large amount of supplements, so if you are a loyal member, I believe you can get them there.

Getting supplies such as needles and peptides wasn't a big issue for me. Because I really enjoy trips to Korea, that's where I picked up all of it. On top of that, I've built up a stash of peptides that could last almost 10 years, so from here I just have to stay consistent with using them. wwwww

Oh! The gym I brought up was located in Korea wwww

Shopping there never crossed my mind! Since I go there so frequently, perhaps that's what I should do. As for equipment, is it only pharmacies? I was taken aback when I saw that the suggested supplier for gluth and botox is a Korean company, yet they wouldn't ship to my address in Korea

For reusable insulin pens, I got pen needles while in Korea. Buying from pharmacies costs a lot and isn't good for buying in large amounts. Online shops such as Coupang are worth trying. Around 800 yen gets you a box of 100 pen needles.

The peptides I bought came from forum sellers.

I have been using a peptide stack including Reta and Tirz for about 10 months now. I've lost around 40kg and have built a pretty robust physique. I joined this forum to share my experiences and to learn from yours as well.

I look forward to interacting with you all.

What weight did you begin at? Solid results, man.
 
wowsers! Those are seriously impressive results, particularly hitting roughly 13% body fat without sacrificing all that muscle. Over the course of those 10 months, did your training, cardio, or protein consumption shift much? Exercise? The most fascinating aspect of your story is likely how you dropped 40kg yet preserved or even added that physique.
