I've been following a solid titration schedule based on clinical trials and have reached 8mg per week. I noticed the bubblies are a little worse which is expected but I've also noticed increased hunger. More like craving sweats as my brain is convinced it'll take the edge off lol. Has this happened to anyone else and does it go away

I looked and see you are on Reta. Is it the first on you have tried? I started with sema, tyhen went to Tirz and ended hitting Goal weight were I have been for over a year now. For 12 weeks I played around with reta, going back to Tirz for a little bit next pin day.

I have a major sweet tooth. With Sema and Tirz that was pretty much gone. As I hit goal weight my hunger on tirz came back, just I got filled really fast and didn't constantly think of food.

On reta the first few weeks my sweet tooth was back. It is much milder now but still there. I was at 12mg Reta. Even though on reta I have been getting really hungry and end up with sweets more often my weight is staying around the same. First switching I went up about 10 pounds.

That's interesting that your cravings have been increasing. Are you still losing weight?
 
Reta.. the glukagon part can make you really hungry and craving sugar.

When I'm on 8 mg, I want to eat all the sugary stuff, and a lot of it, so now I'm down to 6 mg again.

It works well on my appetite on 6 mg.

Was the same for me. I stayed on 8mg for 6 weeks and on the 7th week i did 10mg...then everything was ok again.

Also try to use Cagri...it helps too.

I am fluctuating back up just a few pounds but also building muscle in the gym. Hard to tell which is which lol. I started on Sema then switched to reta within a month. Been working great until I hit 8. Almost like my body finally realized it's been depleted and wants to catch up. Lol
