Can you guys throw some opinions my way? My next dose is tomorrow, and I am trying to decide whether I should titrate up or not.
I had a pretty bad cheat weekend with the holiday. Didn't really try to control what or how much I ate, and it essentially stopped my progress. Not that that is unexpected.
However that's not why I'm considering going up. I have been noticing myself thinking about my next meal a lot over the last few days. And it was extremely easy to overeat, I never felt full over the whole weekend. As of today, I had no problem restricting calories and making smart food choices. But I wonder if I am getting used to the reta and that may be why it was so easy to overeat.
My options are:
Continue at 0.5mg (my preferred option)
Titrate up to 1.0mg in one injection/week
Do 0.5mg twice per week
Let's take a vote!

I would definitely go up.
Definitely go up in dose, from my experience, having lost a lot and been on Sema and Tirz first for over a year, I needed the higher doses. Really saw Reta benefit at 6-8mg per week.

I'd go up while keeping it weekly. Currently your at 25% of the starting dose in human trials (AFAIK). The rats in studies might have binged at your dose! Dosing too little to have an impact ends up being more expensive in the long run when your not getting results.
Tough call because you are on such a low dose. But, you are also still loosing at a very high rate.
Personally, I'd just eat more and hold the same dose for 2 more weeks.

I didn’t feel much on my first 0.5mg dose either. Honestly, I was kind of wondering if I messed it up or if it just wasn’t going to work for me. But a few days in, I noticed my usual cravings got a little quieter. That was huge for me.
"GH is the real deal - Wish I could afford to be on it permanently". You are writing perfect English so I have to assume you live somewhere in the western world (as opposed to zwahilly land) and I find it hard to believe you can't afford a $30/mo. Just bought 2kits of 10X36IU (usually they overfill by ten%, so it is basically 40IU per vial) at a price of $320 including shipping. That should be good for almost one year at about 2-3 IU per day. Still, you can't afford it?PackmanJohnny said:
Me neither. Thought he meant hgh. Maybe the hcg makes ur nuts a lil more efficient so a 3% increase in free test will have everyone trying to cash in. Clomid therapy was big in Europe as an alternative to trt even though it's also a pct drug.PackmanJohnny said:
Chinese gh killed blew up my glucose and a1c and I think it helped get my triglycerides up to 599.... plus they say high dose will cause enlarged organs. My bulldog head is big enough I don't need a gh forehead and belly with enlarged heart liver kidneys gallbladder.Fisherman2356 said:
I did recently come across some much cheaper sources for GH and am reconsidering for the future, but currently I am in a bit of a shit situation lol, working full time plus a full time student and a couple other 'life happens' modifiers. Ill be back where I need to be eventually - but yes prior to going grey I was paying 2-250$ for 100IU kits, super unsustainable LOL.Fisherman2356 said:

GH Dosage is usually a fine line between each incremental level - 2-3IU's daily for general health and wellness('anti-aging'), 4-5 IU's daily for more extreme fat loss, and then anythig over 5 is the morally ambiguous area where you can force tissue to grow but do also start to run into those issues of organ hypertrophy and unwanted skeletal developments.
[Edited to avoid doublepost]
Who knows what I was actually taking 7 years ago, who remembers what ped's I may have been on as well so I concur. I was doing 5ui a day and skipping Saturday and Sunday... I dropped it after about 3 months.PackmanJohnny said:
I liked the effects, the side effect I hated was the lethargy. I was GASSED 24/7, wasnt fully awake until 1400 most days.Airborne Daddy said:
Glad I made the gym before work today cuz I was at the end of a tirz vial where I normally take 9mg with overfill prolly 10ish... today somehow I had right under 15mg which was likely 16ish.... big difference in 5 hours I was bloated with the shits and couldn't get off the couch I was that exhausted.PackmanJohnny said:
Ouch it seems you got more than you bargained for, must have been the real deal to enlarge your organs, let's hope mine does the same but just the right organs not all of them LOL > Hear dudes doing DHEA 50-100mg to stave off those sides you mentioned. I intend to do the same when the shipment arrives. Plus, I would never do more than 3IU though i intend to start at 1IU and after a while move to 2, and only if I feel comfortable, I'd move to 3 and would never do more than that. I don't care to get big just doing it to get cut a bit and help RETA do its magic. Will see what happens and I'll come in here and update if any of my organs start getting enlarged.Airborne Daddy said:
Under what mechanism would DHEA have any effect on acromegaly?Fisherman2356 said:
Not for that but to keep glucose and HA1C and triglycerides in check. There is a doc Dr. Fahy that he does a protocol of 2-3IU GH with 50 DHEA for thymus regrowth, and he seems to think that at doses of 2-4 IU not only your bones will not get bigger but even your boner will stay the same.zpped said:
So, what the hell do I know, I'm just saying what I've heard others recommend.
DHEA shouldn't have any effect on those either, but you know what does? GLP1s...Fisherman2356 said:Not for that but to keep glucose and HA1C and triglycerides in check.

我决定今天再服用0.5毫克。如果周五感觉不错，我可能会再服用0.5毫克。我的理由是：
除了这个假期周末，我一直严格控制卡路里摄入，几乎没有食欲。我的体重仍然在快速下降，我不想冒险加快下降速度，因为我觉得这已经有点过头了。我还意识到，食物的 体积 并没有改变，改变的是卡路里密度。另外，现在我再次查看三星健康应用，发现我摄入的液体卡路里相当多。昨天和今天都很轻松，一直保持在舒适的热量缺口范围内，我想在情况发生变化之前，我会继续服用0.5毫克。
现在来看看数据！
即使在我那三天放纵的假期周末之后，我的净体重仍然下降了1磅，目前为276.6磅，其中包括肌肉增长。周五我会再来汇报一下我的感觉！
