As the title states, this whole thing has been a crazy ride while I figure out how everything works, and I'm really enjoying it. I just completed my first 2 purchases, and I owe this forum a thank you for pointing me toward the vendors.

As for who I am, it's likely not much different from other newcomers. My aim is to shed the weight and be healthier. Since Dec 29th I've gone from 253 to 233, so 20lbs down, and I'm holding onto my muscle. When I hit 205, I want to focus on adding muscle. I'm not chasing the crazy jacked or lean ripped look. I just want to stop looking like a butter ball. 😂

At the moment I pin 1mg Reta each week plus BOC/TB .5mg every day. The results have been amazing, and I'll get labs done soon; based on what those show, I'll put together the right stack for myself.

Anyway, because I found this forum, I won't get ripped off anymore and I'm picking up a lot.
 
Seems like reta works well for me. I wasn't carrying much fat when I started, and between December and now I've dropped from 205 to 180, so that's a pretty big change in percentage terms! At this point I'd say I'm fairly close to what people would call 'lean ripped'.

What are you using the bpc/tb for?

My starting point was 253lbs with 36% body fat, and on the most recent InBody scan I've come down to 28%. What's your current dose? I'm pacing myself too, since keeping my skin's elasticity intact matters a lot to me.

The BPC/TB is something I use for general recovery, though I've got knee and back problems where I notice it lending a hand too.
 
Mine climbed from 1mg/wk up to 4mg/wk, and I've been stepping back down since — at 3mg/wk now. That's split across 2 doses.

BPC is something I've tried before - it did the job.
