Hello everyone, writing from the sunny UK. I'm really interested in trying Retatrutide, but the whole thing seems pretty sketchy, so I'm holding back.

It would mean a lot if any UK folks could walk me through the things I should be watching out for.

I'm a big guy — began mounjaro at 225kg and I'm now at 174kg. That's still far from my goal, but I've hit a plateau and monujaro keeps getting less effective for me.

What I'd really love is to get back the effectiveness I had when I first started taking it.
 
First off, 51kg lost is incredible — well done!

If you aren't already, it might be worth logging what you eat each day. A steady calorie deficit will bring weight loss, even if the scale sometimes refuses to move for a stretch.

Another thing I'd recommend is getting some movement in daily, nothing fancy — a walk counts. Try 6,000 steps a day to begin with, then build up gradually. Track how it's going and tweak as you go.

Ultimately, peptides are only a tool that assists you on the journey. The effort still has to come from you.
 
Wow, those results are amazing! I'm in the UK too and have dropped a decent amount of weight, though I went the Eli Lilly MJ route. After stopping it, some of the weight came back and I'm starting over (not from north of 200kg this time, at least!). I gave Reta a single try and it left me feeling really anxious — yet other people's results on it are fantastic, so I can't tell whether I just got a bad batch. All I took was 0.5mg once, and I had 3 day of pure anxiety.

Hi all from the sunny UK. I'm very keen to look into Retatrutide but am very hesitant about doing it due to the obviously sketchy nature of the whole thing.

If anybody from the UK could talk me through what to look out for I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm a larger gentleman, I started mounjaro at 225kg and am now down to 174kg. Still way above where I want to be. But I have started to plateau and have found monujaro less and less effective.

I really want to get that effectiveness back I had when I first started taking it.

Hey, I'm in Ireland and your story is basically mine from about 37 weeks back — you're doing great, keep going. I was on a GLP 1 (no names 🙂) and then moved over to reta. The most important thing is to track down a reliable supplier from china, begin at a low dose and remain there for as long as you can. So far I've dropped 28KG and I'm almost at my goal weight
