Hello! I started using GLP-1 medications in December 2023. From December 2023 until September 2024, I shed most of my excess weight (starting weight: 272 / lowest weight: 160), but then a cancer diagnosis threw both life and my weight-loss progress off course. Despite chemo and all the steroids that came with it, I only gained 15 pounds. In October 2025, I was cleared to resume my weight-loss journey. Since then, I've been taking 15mg/w of tirz. So far, I've only dropped 19lbs.

My goal weight is 130, and I'm trying to get there. I'd really appreciate any input on stacking 15mg tirz with reta.
 
Hi! I’m also traveling the GLP‑1 road, and I just wanted to tell you that you’ve faced a tremendously hard year with remarkable resilience. Making it through chemo and steroids with only a modest regain says a lot, and beginning your loss again in Oct with 19 lbs gone is genuine progress.

Combining tirz with reta is a decision your oncology and weight‑management team would have to consider very carefully, because both act on similar hormone pathways while your body is still healing. Given what you’re aiming for, that’s certainly something to discuss with them.

I’m cheering you on!
 
Welcome. You've certainly been through quite a lot.

I'm with you on checking in with your medical team prior to stacking.

It's good to have you among us. I look forward to learning more about you.
