Hey everybody!

I'm a guy from Sweden, roughly 30 years old. Being a big guy has always been my normal; over the past 7-8 years or so I've spent time lifting weights at the gym, and during some stretches I also trained mixed martial arts. But the last 2-3 years life got in the way, and my weight began climbing beyond my control. After being diagnosed with high BP and going on medication last year, it hit me that I need to do something about this. Right now I'm 25 pounds lighter, yet progress is painfully slow and I catch myself overeating frequently.

For a few weeks I've been lurking around this forum, reading pretty much anything I can get my hands on so I can hopefully make sensible, well-informed decisions 🙂 It looks like a genuinely great forum. It reminds me of the old-school internet feeling of talking things over in open forums, back before everything shifted into closed communities on Discord — really nice!

This summer I've made up my mind to start Retatrutide. My research into reta is what brought me here, and now I'm gradually picking up information about other peptides that sound interesting. For the time being, though, I've chosen to stick with reta alone, as this is my first time using any injectable substance.

Looking forward to taking part in interesting discussions, learning more, and getting to know good people here! 🙂
