Hello everyone, I'm a 46-year-old guy. Weight has been a battle for as long as I can remember. Around 4 months back, I began Tirz while weighing 315 lb. Now I'm down to 268 lbs. So far, everything has been going smoothly.
 
Hello! Tirz is what I’m on too, and so far it’s treated me well. Down the road, I’d like to move over to retatrutide, maybe alongside cagrilintide. Before I change anything, I’m still reading up on it quite a bit.

Nice work on what you’ve achieved up to now. Going from 315 down to 268 over four months is quite something!

Reta's been treating me fine, though the higher heart rate is somewhat annoying. It's not severe, but my sleep has taken a small hit. Based on what I've come across, any compound involving Glucagon leads to a slight bump in HR. Still, things are going alright up to now.
 
The main side I've noticed is that it makes me sweat more, and more readily. Gets annoying sometimes.

That's a huge loss, nice work. As for me, I hopped on reta alongside my wife, who had already made the switch from tirz. Because of that, I can't give a firsthand account of what the transition itself is like. She does appear to be dropping weight more quickly while on a lower mg. Personally, I've lost 15lbs over 1½ months. You've definitely come to the right spot for answers about switching. If need be
 
Nice work on the weight loss, that's impressive. My sleep has been terrible for the last 2 weeks, though I hadn't linked it to reta—I've only used it for 3 weeks so far. I'm slowly reintroducing magnesium and hoping it starts helping before long.

That works out to roughly 1% of body weight dropped each week. In your view, are you holding onto muscle pretty well?
 
I picked up a scale that tracks body fat, muscle, and similar metrics. Based on the readings, nothing seems to be dropping. That said, I didn't get it until roughly 2 months in, so my baseline is pretty thin. Even so, the numbers look fine up to now.
