Hello,
My Experience with GLP-1-Forum and Successful Weight Loss
At the beginning of 2024, I started my weight loss journey with Mounjaro before switching to Tirzepatide. A dose of 7.5 mg per week worked well for me. In the middle of the year, I came across Retatrutide, decided to try it, and had very positive experiences with it.
My starting weight was 131 kg (289 lbs), and my initial goal was 100 kg (220 lbs). However, I ultimately reached 94 kg (207 lbs). I am now in the process of determining the optimal maintenance dose, which ranges between 2.5 mg and 5 mg of Retatrutide. I have also experimented with a combination of 2.5 mg Cagri + 2.5 mg Retatrutide, but I have not yet drawn any final conclusions. However, I tend to believe that 5 mg of Retatrutide alone is sufficient to maintain my weight.
Positive Health Improvements
My overall health has improved significantly. My blood pressure has stabilized, and a previous issue with positional dizziness has disappeared. I attribute this directly to my weight loss. At times, I experienced mild digestive issues (constipation), but I successfully managed them with soaked prunes. I add these to my morning muesli, and they work very well.
My Current Lifestyle
Since January 2024, I have completely given up alcohol. Although I used to enjoy having a beer or a glass of wine with meals, I no longer miss it. Instead, I enjoy living more consciously. My diet is calorie-conscious, vegetable-rich, and protein-balanced. I eat a lot of salads and focus on maintaining a balanced intake. Additionally, I go to the gym twice a week and stay physically active.
My Conclusion
I feel that my current lifestyle is well-balanced and fulfilling. The decision to follow this path has been one of the best of my life. It wasn’t always easy, but it was absolutely worth it. I want to share my experience to encourage others to stay committed and patient on their weight loss journey. It is worth it!
