5 weeks on Reta — intro and next steps

My 5th week has just begun. I've lost 8.1lbs so far. The first 2 weeks were at 0.5, then 1.0 for the following 2 weeks. Currently I'm on 2.0. If this week brings no unpleasant side effects, my plan is to move to 3.0 rather than 4.0 next week.

hey everyone, I've now been on reta for 5 weeks and I'm thinking about adding some other peps!
I'm in the same boat. My starting dose was 2mg weekly, divided across the week, and by week 4 I moved up to 3mg. My next pins are scheduled for Wednesday and Saturday.

I'm in month 3 now, and I inject on both Sunday and Wednesday, totaling as much as 4mg across those 2 shots. Progress has plateaued up to this point. Next month I'll raise it, then we'll find out what happens

For my upcoming dose, I'm bumping up to 4mg (2 x 2mg). Since the trials moved from 2mg to 4mg at the 4-week mark, I'll test that approach. Should any side effects appear, I'll drop back to 3mg.
