Hi! I’m in my 20s, in school, and living in Ontario. Growing up I was always unathletic and pudgy, basically skinny-fat my whole life (still am, but making improvements). Earlier this year I came across Retatrutide on TikTok (surprisingly decent if you can filter the noise) and started digging a bit deeper—mainly Reddit experiences and some short articles, nothing too formal.
I took my first dose in late spring and haven’t regretted it once. Stress eating and lack of discipline had me gain close to 40 lbs in about a year and a half. I was able to peel off about 10 lbs “naturally” before realizing there’s no honour in pointless suffering and decided to give Retatrutide a shot. Since then I’ve dropped over 20 lbs in less than 2 months—it honestly felt like magic. The appetite suppression has been a game changer. Cravings are somewhat better too, though food noise is still an issue, which is why Cagrilintide has me interested. Still have another 20–30 lbs I’d like to lose, but I’m making real headway.
I train 3x/week and have learned a lot since high school through both research and trial and error. I wasted time on bad advice in the past, but lately I’ve been seeing good results focusing on lower volume with maximum intensity. Beyond fat loss, I’m curious about how GLP-1s and other peptides might be useful even in massing phases through improved insulin sensitivity. I also have family watching my progress, since their doctors have linked some of their health issues (like hypertension) to weight. Also, as a broke student, paying $8.00/mg is no longer feasible for me.
