Hello everyone in the GLP1Chat Community,
John here. Athletics has been part of my entire life, I'm an avid biohacker, and I work as an experimental personal development research expert. Across roughly 20 years, I've been fortunate enough to try many different ergogenic enhancements in pursuit of holistic health and wellness.
When it comes to GLP-1s, my initial trial involved semaglutide (gray source) in 2023. Combined with metformin, that protocol helped me launch a dramatic cut, going from 265 all the way down to around 180. Honestly, the process wasn't a struggle, and I didn't experience intense or particularly out-of-the-ordinary side effects beyond what's typical. What I recall is that the sema made staying fully compliant with my diet far simpler and quieted the distractions created by chances to overeat. Being exact is tough looking back, but my best estimate is that I used the Sema for about 6 months prior to traveling to Playa Del Carmen, Mexico, to collect my cut from the beach.
During 2024-2025, some of that weight did return, yet I mostly kept myself under 222 (a goal dating back to my HS sports days). Then, by fall 2025, things began to slide once more, and my weight moved from around 195 in September up past 230. Before I began Retatrutide, my peak weight was 238.
As of now, I've been on Reta for approximately the past 4 weeks. Week 1 started at .750 x 2, totaling 1.5 mg, then I increased to .750 x 3, totaling 2.225 mg, for the next several weeks, and this week I moved up to 1.5 x 2, totaling 3 mg. Appetite suppression/blunting showed up right away. Eating was never a problem for me on Reta, and I never felt excessively full, but overall, as with Sema, I found it very easy to stay completely compliant with my diet and felt no pull toward snacking, drinking, or straying.
Progress on the scale has been a bit slow during these first weeks, with 1-5 pounds coming and going multiple times, yet all told I'm 7-8 lbs down so far, I appear a bit leaner/better in the mirror, and my mindset is positive. I just finished another transaction with a trusted sponsor here and am eager to experiment with higher RETA doses soon, since I believe 4-8 mg will produce stronger results.

Right, it takes a month for it to accumulate in your system. If you split the dose, you'd need to raise the dose for it to accumulate. That's pointless.
