Yes, Yes and Yes ! To all of the above.

TMI...I shave sensitive body parts just because. (sorry, the devil made me do it)

Just to confirm, what parts would one have to Manscape? Asking for a friend?

My best advice is to know your resting heart rate pre Reta and monitor for changes.

This is excellent advice. You presumably know, but tracking your lipid profile and liver markers with taking Reta is interesting, too, because it made massive improvements for me.

 

[CharlieBrown]

Understand that reta is slow, 8 weeks minimum before you will lose weight. You may need to titrate up to 4mg to 6mg before anything happens. At your weight understanding that your calorie requirements may be very low due to metabolic adaptation. 800 calories a day finally got me losing. You may be very hungry when you first start as the appetite suppression doesn't engage for a bit. Use a low calorie high protein meal replacement powder because that's the only way you can get enough protein with these calorie reductions. The one I use is 120 calories for every 23g protein and uses grass fed beef and veggies for the protein. Magnesium 1000mg, electrolytes, creatine, and a few prunes all keep the system humming.

With all due respect, I can't agree with on a lot of this, esp........

"Understand that reta is slow, 8 weeks minimum before you will lose weight. You may need to titrate up to 4mg to 6mg before anything happens".

Everyone reacts differently to the peptide. Some people have a major appetite suppression with just 5.0mg.

Others like myself had none, not even at 8mg.

I lost weight immediately and steadily since I started in January at 0.5mg

Try to eat real food as much as possible and keep the replacement stuff as a last resort.

I started with 1900 calories, 140g protein and 25g fibre right from day one; eating every 2/2.5 hours smaller meals and still do it to this day.

Starting weight was 165lbs - now at 141lb

Sadly, my insurance dumped me and since my last name isn't Bezos or some version of "Stein", I can't do tests in this land.

TMI....TMI

TMI....TMI

Why you gotta do my friend like that, mate. Bros before 304s and all that...Spill!

You'll be sorry.........going off topic here. I hate body hair.

Shoulders, arms & back - waxed

The rest gets the smallest attachment on the clippers once a week

Can't believe I'm posting this....lol

Being that the person is 253 lbs they will likely respond differently than you, have metabolic adaptation and severe insulin resistance. My advice is based off a person who has difficulty losing weight due to metabolic adaptation over years. But I fully agree to start low and titrate slowly.

I hate body hair too, but I hate having to shave even more. Such a chore. Damn the lengths a man has to go to procure adoration from those without a Y chromosome. As if stabbing oneself with several Chinese molecules wasn't enough, now I have to become a regular barber too? Man, fudge this feces.

I hear you, Sir. I was diabetic before, and was around 340lbs when I had the Sleeve gastrectomy. It's near certain that I've some metabolic maladaptation.

我也讨厌体毛，但我更讨厌刮毛。真是个麻烦事儿。真他妈的，为了博得那些没有Y染色体的人的崇拜，男人得付出多少努力啊。好像往自己身上扎几个中国分子还不够似的，现在我还要当个理发师？真是见鬼了。

我懂你，先生。我以前是糖尿病患者，做袖状胃切除术的时候体重大概有340磅。我几乎可以肯定自己有代谢紊乱的问题。

按刮得最频繁到最少的顺序排列：手臂、胸部、腿部、背部。我喜欢刮完后的样子和感觉。不过，我不得不升级剃须刀，还买了一些剃须油。

好吧，我愿意把诺贝尔奖颁给发明永久去除这种讨厌体毛方法的人。

恕我直言，我不太同意其中的很多观点，尤其是……

“要知道，这种肽类药物起效缓慢，至少需要8周才能看到体重下降。你可能需要逐渐增加剂量，从4毫克增加到6毫克才会见效。”

每个人对这种肽的反应都不同。有些人服用5毫克就能明显抑制食欲，

而像我这样的人即使服用8毫克也没有任何反应。

我从一月份开始服用，剂量为0.5毫克，体重立即且稳定地下降。

尽量多吃天然食物，把代餐食品作为最后的选择。

从第一天起，我就坚持每天摄入1900卡路里、140克蛋白质和25克纤维；每隔2到2.5小时吃一顿少量的餐食，直到现在仍然如此。我的

初始体重是165磅，现在是141磅。

我刚刚看到了你那张毫无亮点的照片。 我只想说一句——你到底是怎么叫查理·布朗的？你应该叫查理·里普德怀特才对。

 

[Smiter]

准备好很快就要换衣服啦

我天生就准备好了……我有一个储物棚，里面堆满了衣服，我需要有人督促我把它们清理掉。

保持健康，不要摄入过量导致晕厥/营养不良（我就是其中之一）。

那得看美国海关的背信弃义了。他们是我抵御极度贪婪和暴食的唯一屏障。不然我怎么会变得这么胖呢？

关注一下，因为我以后可能也会接受Reta疗法。我服用Tirz已经11个月了，但效果正在减弱，而且我快要达到最大剂量了（目前是每周12.5毫克）。希望它对你有效！

你或许可以考虑将小剂量Reta与Tirza一起使用。这里有些人就是这么做的。

服用瑞塔期间，蛋白粉对我帮助很大，让我轻松摄入蛋白质，不用强迫自己进食。每天230克的蛋白质对我的减重和肌肉保持都很有帮助。

祝你好运，记得多喝水！

That's the plan.. My family has a love-hate relationship with whey protein shakes. I love it and they hate it. Can't really blame them, downwind breaks hard.

Electrolytes every day. A lot of my sides effects or day to day discomfort were solved by incorporating this.

Bezos is delivering this as we speak.

Was between 66 and 70.

Not for me it wasn't. I lost the first and second week at 2mg, and continue to lose at 6mg.

 

[wulf00777]

Awesome but the reason I mentioned it is because over and over and over I see people at 6 or 8 weeks asking why they are not losing. It's very common especially for those with more entrenched obesity.

This! my RHR went up pretty high. Way out of my normal ranges, i knew from my research that it would go up some but im randomly hitting crazy numbers. I was hoping my body would adjust and it would come down some but that hasn't happened. I am probably going back to tirz for this reason.

 

[domin8brix]

I am staying upwind for this conversation.

Just to confirm, what parts would one have to Manscape? Asking for a friend?

I can't speak for all women, but as long as I don't have to wade through a forest of hair, I don't really care. I also can't stand body hair (on myself) so I am pretty on top of that one too, though I can't manage my right underarm right now for reasons you and I both share, so that might be a problem when I can finally manage it. I got them waxed before my surgery though just as a buffer, and didn't think clearly about how I'd manage it down the line.

 

[SeaGypsy]

Okay I'm willing to award the Nobel prize to the dude who invents permanent exorcism of this infernal body hair.

It's already there, laser hair removal. It can be pricey and requires multiple sessions but it is available. Now if any of you big tough men shaving your legs and arms are brave enough you could use an epilator. The results last a couple weeks instead of a couple days. I refuse to life without mine.

 

[wulf00777]

This could be a placebo effect, but I'm less hungry too. I can't eat as much as I did yesterday. This could be because I have used GLP before in 2020-2022 when I was diabetic, or it could be due to the sleeve gastrectomy I had.

Yes I had a great reaction the first week, then less appetite suppression (same with my dad). The appetite suppression is less important for Reta. Really your focus should be on maintaining protein and less about calories for now. Slowly work your way up and when you start losing weight or have enough appetite suppression to help you lower calories then stop tirtating up. But there's using reta as Reta and then there's using reta like tirz for the appetite suppression. Using reta as reta means you get the 3rd agonist going which really kicks in at 4mg or higher.

 

[Smiter]

Okay, I just jumped/woke up. I dont usually dream during sleep. But I had a vivid, hour long dream about diarrhea, woke u and got it in real life too. Immensely uncomfortable defecation later, [like lava was flowing through the bowels], I checked my weight. I am now 247lbs. Is this how Reta works? Forcing you to defecate your soul out?

I had a great reaction the first week, then less appetite suppression

Great, just great. Just what I wanted to hear.

shaving your legs and arms are brave enough you could use an epilator. The results last a couple weeks instead of a couple days.

Ha! Nice try. There is nothing and I mean absolutely nothing... that logically ties epilator use and courage. I just have this congenital allergy to pain.

I can't speak for all women, but as long as I don't have to wade through a forest of hair, I don't really care. I also can't stand body hair (on myself)

Now, if that ain't peak-level hypocrisy, I dont know what is. You can't stand it yourself, but you give hope to men who are hirsutically challenged.

This! my RHR went up pretty high. Way out of my normal ranges

I learnt this the hard way at the most inopportune of times. Wearing a Fiitbit watch during a quickie is one thing, having it show 150bpm is quite another. Now it is showing resting rate at 81. It used to be 69.
