Hi everyone, I’m wondering whether others in this space also count as “low responders” to many different substances.
For me, a lot of peptides produce almost no noticeable effect, despite other people describing intense results. The same goes for certain medications. Time and again, things that obviously work for others either hit me very weakly or appear to do almost nothing.
Take Reta as an example. There is some benefit, but nowhere near what people on 2 or 4mg weekly describe...and by now I’m at 12mg. Around 12kg came off over 4 Months, yet that only happened because I track calories and make adjustments after every few Kilos.
Whenever I attempt to drop weight, several weeks pass before any small loss shows up. Each time I log every single calorie.
So I’m asking: does anyone else here go through the same thing?
Did you ever figure out the reason? Genetics, metabolism, receptor sensitivity, sleep, stress, or something different?
Was there anything that genuinely made your responsiveness better?
To be clear, this isn’t about having unrealistic expectations. I’m talking about situations where multiple unrelated compounds across categories all seem weaker than they “should” be.
I’d really like to know if this happens more often than I assume.
