    I did it! I just put in my first order of Reta from Southern Amino! They have the best deals and the best COA I've seen so far, and I searched tons of vendors. Souther Amino seems to be the best option all around in terms of price and quality!

    I will take my first shot next Thursday. Tonight, I will take my final shot of Wegovy then start my journey with Reta!

        I hear the food noise/apatite control is a lot stronger with wegovy then reta.
        When I started my rat on reta I gave him 2mg, for the first 4 weeks, then 3mg for 2 weeks, and then 4mg for 4 weeks. I have heard of people splitting there first week 1 mg on Sunday and 1mg on Wed

        My Rat got a 30mg bottle that I added 3ml of bac water to make the math easy 1 unit equals 1 mg
        If I bought a 10 mg bottle I would pry add 1 ml of bac water so my rat gets a smaller shot 1mg per 10 unit that way.

          @brandenscheidecker from what I've heard I am to understand the GLP part is 1/4 that of Tirz but the GIP bit is 9x stronger nvm the glucogon i recon they activat you metabolism but require you eat more to feed it, i guess it works IDK for certain. i did a Reta to suplement my Mounjoro half a week counter to the tirz with mininal dosing but as i was on both i cannot speak on the appitite supression. I am letting the Reta Clear out before i experiment withe supplementing my Tirz with the Cagri. will keep y'all postes as to how it goes/

            @MeraNaam I bought many times from Southern Aminos. They have been good and I like how they print the exact purity and actual fill amount. So remember 99% purity only, when reconstituting use Pfizer’s Hospira pharmaceutical grade bac water. Filtering your research peptides is good practice, especially into a pen cartridge which makes it so quick and easy once it’s loaded.
            You are going to be awesome in Atlanta!!!

              Thank you so much Beachfun! I literally purchased form Southern Amino too!! Once I saw the COA with recent date and nearly 99.9% purity, I jumped on the opportunity!

              And yes, my BAC water is also from Pfizer Hospira.

              As for the Peppen pen cartridge, I opted to use the AutoEject El pen, using the 10 unit syringes. I chose that since my boyfriend uses it for his Zepbound vials and it works quick and easy for him.

                Congratulations on the progress you've made already! Losing 30+ lbs with PCOS is a huge achievement.

                If you're interested in learning more about the different approaches to medical weight loss, I found this resource helpful because it brings together information on GLP-1 therapies, treatment options, and related topics in one place:

                Wishing you the best with your journey and hope you crush that dance performance in Atlanta!

                  Reta is the king. Make sure you are eating enough or you will stall out. You also need to be in the gym doing resistance training b/c muscle loss is a real concern. Secondly, if you want to look your best get some GHK-Cu and also buy the topical. My GF uses both and the results after 5 weeks are pretty impressive. Her skin looks great.

                    While I agree with much of the protein intake; think it's exaggerated, I couldn't cram that down me on Tirz/Survo much less Reta. I guess eat the meat first then the veggies. Ugh...

                      @brandenscheidecker Right 💯

                      @myranaam I will just piggy back that prefer good fats over grainy carbs. Outwardly it may look like a mozzarella cheese snack pack has more fat than some rice. But the former won't shoot up your blood sugar compared to rice.

                      If your insurance covers — nowadays many do for a dirt cheap copay — get Continuous Glucose Monitor (Freestyle Libre 3 plus) and closely track how different foods affect your blood sugar. Do that for 3 months at least. It opened my eyes about how different foods affected me.

                      All the problems your mentioned have close connection to insulin resistance and blood sugar spikes.
