I am 5'0", 60 y/o female. I started Reta (1.5mg) on 4-21-2026. I was 150 lb. Today, 7-20-2026 I weigh exactly 125 lb. Just 3 lbs left to reach my goal.
I stalled at 129 lb for 4 frustrating weeks. I had stalled before, but not that long. Like Extropian said, dial down the Reta and increase the calories. Also, when I can't stand the sight of food, I find it it easier to choke down the protein if I pair it with a carb. That means hamburgers WITH buns, sandwiches, half of a bagel with cream cheese. Then go low carb again and boom! Listen to your body. If it's craving something, there's a reason. Eat it!
Now I'm trying to figure out the low maintenance dose I will likely stay on forever. Thoughts? 1 unit... which is barely a drop in a 100 unit syringe... lol?!
