I took the plunge and decided to start retatrutide. Yesterday was my first dose. I told my dad because I was anxious in case I have more side effects (I did really well on tirzepatide but did eventually develop injection site reactions that were miserable and itchy). He started to say something, it wasn't nice so he stopped himself and didn't say anything else. I asked him and he wouldn't say anything.

I got it reconstituted and did it with 1.5ml of bac water instead of 2ml so I won't be taking many units. I was so nervous. I went to take the injection and I hesitated. I think it's because I was worried about the reactions but so far so good. I did feel warmer than usual this morning but reta is supposed to increase your metabolism so that's actually a sign it might be working already. I was a quick respo...

Here's how my weight is going. Please note that I weigh myself first thing in the morning after peeing. For the sake of record keeping ☆ & ★ will indicate I was menstruating with the white star representing spotting (prior to both usages, a star is simply to indicate mensturation and no differentiation between spotting or more flow). On days that I took my peptides 💉 will be used and dosage noted. I took tirzepatide from 3/10/2025 to 01/08/2026 and started retatrutide on 4/27/2026. ✓ Will indicate that I walked that day and each check (✓) is 30 minutes.
