A close buddy put me onto peps. Right now I'm 4-2mg doses of Reta deep into this run. High protein is how I'm eating, since my goal is recomposition rather than simply dropping weight.

For anyone still reading, I've got something to ask the veterans... Dose 1 landed on 4/19, dose 2 on 4/26, dose 3 on 5/3, dose 4 on 5/10. My 5th got skipped due to being out of town, and once I was back I still couldn't take it because my needles had run out. Supplies just arrived again and I was planning to pin on 5/31. Since it's been 2 weeks from my last pin, does the cycle start over? Should I return to my usual 2mg dose, or is starting lower the better move this time?

TIA
 
With wegovy, the guidance I got was: if you miss the day, skip that week, then pick up again like usual. Since Reta aims at a steady, reworked metabolism, I realize it's a different situation, though I doubt the cycle fully resets. That said, I only know what I just mentioned.

Thanks for whatever thoughts you can offer! I think what I really wanted was some reassurance. Last night I dug a little deeper with my buddy Claude, and from what I found, dropping back down to 2mg ought to be okay—though the stomach troubles I had at the start will probably hit just as hard again, because after 2 weeks the Reta has largely cleared my system :/
