You didn’t gain the weight overnight and you shouldn’t expect to lose it overnight without significant health risks.skeptick said:

262 was my peak, although I had lost a little prior to starting Reta. I'm now 192!! Yes!!!venistrying said:

Who is dropping 10+lb week over week? That would require a ~4k+cal/day deficit .
I lost 40 pounds in the first 9 weeks. Much of that was autoimmune related inflammation. Prednisone related moon face, etc. The fat loss came later.skeptick said:
I’ve never slowly added Bac. I let the vacuum determine the speed. Peps are not the delicate flowers folks think. That rumor was started by AAS seller selling junk- if the buyer got no response, it was blamed on “rough recon.” In truth it was due to no peps and scamming. That’s why folks initially started testing. Watch the interviews w/Peter Magic- he owns/runs Janoshec (sp) testing.BNLFL said:
"Good practice to wipe with alcohol before and after every use" I've seen this elsewhere. What's the point of wiping the vial top AFTER drawing???Estarossa19 said:Having BAC water is a newbie right of passage! Honestly caught me off guard the first time and my BPC foamed up like crazy. Had the same worries as you but it should be fine. You’ll find conflicting information online about it but I’ve settled that the peptides aren’t as delicate as we may think. Heck I even shake them when they’re being finicky during recon and are still working as expected.
Good practice to wipe with alcohol before and after every use. Has it ruined the peptide? Is a colony of brain eating bacteria being introduced? Unlikely
Pointers from me would to give the time for the pep to do it’s magic. I see a lot of people wanting to titrate up super quick with reta when it’s designed to have 4 week escalations. Should you start at 2mg and follow trial dosing? Sure, your results should be in line with what the data shows. Do you wanna start lower and go slower with titrations? Sure! Find what works best for you.
Goodluck!
Shiii I don’t know big dawg someone that sounded smart wrote that somewhere and I’ve been doing itskeptick said:
Thanks. I watched it.FlowerFairy said:
Remember, every step must be wiped with alcohol. Proceed slowly. Start by cleaning the reconstitution bottle first. I began by adding 1mg, and it took 4 weeks for me to start feeling any effects.
The only dumb question is the one never asked. That said the first place to ask is the search bar. If you don't find the info your after then approach the other members. Posting and asking those questions and general engagement in the conversations is how you will get your "no source" banner removed.venistrying said:
Me too. I use the vacuum to advantage. Insert the BAC needle at an angle, so the water hits the wall of the vial above the peptide. Doesn't spray directly onto the peptide. Speeds mixing in this manner, as well.FlowerFairy said:
Just look at the rubber stopper; they typically have a groove across the inside. Be sure to align the needle to match the groove, the needle pushes thru much easier in this way.
Do you mean that little circle on the top?deluge said:
No, but that little circle is centered above the groove I am referring to.BNLFL said:
One day I used an opener to tear the plastic/crimped aluminum top off a vial, and accidentally took the whole top off, rubber stopper and all. On my vials, the inside of the rubber stopper is actually 2 separate protrusions, with a groove in the middle that runs full width.
By going inline with the groove, you can aim the needle at the side of the vial, while only having to pierce the thinner section of the stopper.
Mine looked like these below. If you go diagonally in the wrong direction, you have to pierce 1/2" of rubber. Not good.
But in searching for an image I see that there are other stopper designs as well. Guess you gotta look carefully at your vials before reconstituting.

Ah, I never looked, but am gonna go to the garage fridge and look. Learn something everyday, thanks.deluge said:
Just looked at a J5 from MLB, doesn't have that. One vial with one dose left from someone else does. Really good to know.deluge said:
He has a few.GrandmaJ said:
