35 years old. started reta 3 weeks ago.

Started at 255@ 18%, ten years training as a competitive lifter and hoping to utilize this to improve labs and body composition while making a shot at sub 10% body fat.

Currently on 2.0mg reta weekly.

500MG test E weekly.

3mg GHK CU daily.

2mg Tessa Nightly.

And then my various vitamins and stuff as well.

steady losing at 0.25LB a week with no negative sides. May increase the dose this week, either to 2.5 so the 10mg vials last a month, or 3mg just for an even number at 50% jump.

I have noticed that my adhd symptoms seem a bit more muted, my cravings for nicotene and alcohol have dropped drastically, and cravings for sweets is near gone.

I have also noticed my mood stays neutral even in high stress situations as well.

No noted HR increase.

Maybe running a tad warmer.

No constipation.

Definitely more thirsty than usual.

I have seen a lot of stories of people noticing effects at this dose and I am actually wondering if I just dont respond as well as others and do actually need a higher dose.

That is awesome about the alcohol, nicotine, and sweets cravings going down! Hope your dose adjustment proves useful for you

OH, my alcohol metabolism is weird now too. Usually if I slam a tall pub glass and sip on the second before I eat anything I would be sitting right at that happy low level tipsy in minutes. Its perfect. But now it seems to take quite a while to get that feeling to start at all.

I went on a date recently and had two drinks and lost interest in ordering a third. This is an unusual occurrence for me.

Def thirsty all the time though.
 
Best advice I can give for Reta is to go slow. Don’t titrate too quickly. Even half a mg can make a difference. Plus you don’t want to eat up that hard earned muscle.

Right now I am just barely able to hit my protein before I am too full to reasonably consume any more food.

I am able to hit my 230-250 grams of protein daily through lots of yogurt, protein shakes, chicken breast, tuna packets, and protein smoothies.

Food has been rather boring but I am doing my best to hit my protein markers. I worked HARD to gain this and dont want to accidentally burn it off.
