Alright folks,

Just joined the forum.

My first Reta run began in late 23/early 2024. I did a ton of reading back then, and it worked out really well for me.

Now I'm getting back into it, and I've noticed that a bunch of the old forums and resources like discord have disappeared.

After finding you guys, I'm rebuilding what I know and tracking down resources before I likely kick off a 2nd Reta journey toward a new target weight.

Feel free to say hi and where you’re from 😁

Thanks
 
Welcome! Great to meet someone who was on reta before it really took off. From what you wrote, you're planning to begin again so you can reach a fresh goal weight. Once you hit that first target weight, were you able to keep the weight off without reta, or did you notice the number on the scale creeping up and find it tough to stop without it?

Glad you're back!

Hi,

Cheers for that - seems I needed to build up some street cred first before I was allowed to reply 🙂

When I stopped Reta, I didn't get hit by crazy cravings or anything like that. I kept things steady at basically +/- 5lbs. The reason I wanted to jump back on was simply to shed a bit more.

Right now I'm roughly 11lbs down in 4.5 weeks, which is decent.

Plenty of stuff I didn't return to once I'd come off - I can barely handle beer anymore, the taste for it never came back. That's a plus I suppose. Mind you, it hasn't kept me away from a few cocktails lol.

Thanks
