Hi guys,
I've been mainly reading up on Reddit and this forum was referenced, so joined as I've just started my journey on reta.
Looking forward to advice and guidance as I get back to a healthy weight.
Bit about me:
I've always been fit regardless of my weight, mountain biking, hiit, golf, badminton and hard training. However nutrition has always been my challenge. About a decade ago I was about 125kg and went down to 87kg in the space of about 6-9 months, I did insanity workouts and p90x but then a couple of years later yoyod back.
So just looking to get healthy again.
I started reta at 1mg just to test tolerance, then stuck to 2mg for 3 weeks, this week I took my first dose at 5mg.
It's going fine so far, but my issues that I need advice to overcome is:
Anyway happy to be here and thanks for having me

It's going fine so far, but my issues that I need advice to overcome is:
- I'm struggling to eat over 1100-1400 cals, and my target for healthy loss is 1900.
- I'm struggling to have motivation and energy to train or exercise regularly
- I've got skin hypersensitivity and what feels like body pains you would get when you have a cold but bearing with it.
Anyway happy to be here and thanks for having me
