I am currently at 15mg of reta. I split dose 7.5mg every Thurs and Sunday
 
8mg split dose 2x4 been on about 27 weeks

Love to see all the real doses in this thread and not the reddit "I took .25 4 hours ago why am I not losing yet"
 
I know they say start low and go slow, but I came from Tirz high dose. I titrated up over 8 weeks, then I was on 8 mg for 2 months, now down to 6 mg the last 3 weeks, because I got anhedone.

I'm very close to my goal weight, so it's slow weight loss now.
 
1mg, started yesterday! Already no food cravings and I feel full after drinking a little bit. Kinda have to force myself right now to get it down lol
 
Stated in new year , first week 0.5mg, second week 1.0. Third 1.5 , then finally 2mg Reta which I'm on now , should be every seven days but I'm finding by about 5-6 I'm hungry so it seems to be every 5-6 days rather than seven .

Started at 98kg now 92kg. I'm happy with what I'm loosing so will stay on 2mg until stall . I'd like to get to 70kg which is what my BMI calculation says I should be
 
At 1 mg per week, I’m in my 5th week, and around days 5–6 I’ve started noticing the food noise coming back slowly, so I’m thinking about increasing the dose. I started at 259 and I’m down to 243 as of this morning.

I may switch to 1 mg every 3–4 days, or just move to 2 mg once a week. I’m going to do a bit more research before I decide.

Would this by chance be your first GLP1? It seems those who have used Oz or Tirz before switching to Reta do not find the satiety that they did with those two to be as powerful with Reta. I'm just making mental notes for meself on this phenom. 🫡

I'm only a few weeks in, but this is the path that I followed as well. Week one was .5, week two was 1, three was 1.5. I experienced appetite suppression from week 1, but it trails off by day 5 or 6 as mentioned above. My goal in starting small and making small increases was to titrate up and better visibility into dosing if any negative side effects creep in. Currently, I am sticking to a 7 day cycle, and I am hoping once I get up to a little higher dose or have a higher therapeutic level that the suppression will stretch the whole week.

If it hasn't improved after a month or two in the higher dose range, I may look at splitting the dose and doing twice a week, but I want to give it an earnest shot at working before going that route.
 
I started at 0.5mg just to make sure no real adverse effects since it's my first glp1. Then 1.0mg the next week, slowly titrated up to my current 3mg/wk at almost 4 mos. I've lost 15lbs but only trying to lose 1lb/wk since I'm older to try to minimize loose skin and muscle loss. Want to lose about another 15lbs.
 
4.5 months in and just ramped up to 5 mg. I’m losing fat at a conservative rate for me (about 0.8–1.5% per week), which fits my calorie intake given my activity level. Side effects have been very minimal. I did notice a slight increase in heart rate, but it’s been fine.

It is my first GLP1, yes! I’ve only ever lost weight the “natural” way prior and I’m pleasantly surprised how well I seem to be reacting to it 🙂
