INTRO 35 M , 128 KG

[Jerrydee]

Hey, Jerry here, writing from Thailand.

I've been on reta for 2 weeks and 3 days now, and I'm down roughly 8 kg — currently sitting in the 120 range. I also have type 2 diabetes, and my fasting numbers were insanely high at 301, if you catch my drift. By week 2, day 10, I ended up dropping my sugar meds since reta handled it on its own. These days I'm at 120 fasting with no medication.

My diet's clean: protein comes first, then healthy fats, then fiber, and I keep carbs under 100g.

Side effects match what everyone else reports, except I've got way too much energy and no clue what to do with it or where to put it lol

So yeah, first post. Still a long road ahead — let's go!! Damm!! Can't even manage a cheers lol

Fresh starts, ambitious targets, and what tech can do for your health journey

Hey all!

Dropping a line from Phuket, Thailand to say hello and walk you through how quickly things have moved for me on Retatrutide. Weight and health have been a struggle for me for some time, but these past 21 days have flipped everything.

By the Numbers (3 Weeks In)

• Where I Started: 126.7 kg

• Where I Am Now: 119.3 kg

• Down: ▼ 7.4 kg

• Visceral Fat: Falling quickly!

Beyond the Scale (Massive!)

The weight isn't even the headline—getting off medication is.

• Then: I depended on daily diabetes meds (Gemer/Alsita).

• Now: Off them. My blood sugar leveled out enough that I could stop the meds entirely.

How I'm Doing It

• Dosing: Began low at 1mg, then stepped up to 2mg recently.

• Side Effects: Appetite is heavily suppressed (the "food noise" is gone), though it's been tolerable.

• My Secret Weapon: An advanced AI is helping me log my dosage, study my half-life peaks, and keep an eye on my vitals. Think of it as my neutral "health partner" making sure I stay safe, don't drop weight too quickly, and don't skip safety protocols.

Glad to be here and pick up tips from all of you!
