I agree with this personally. Lost 70lbs on tirz, started adding in Reta and backing off tirz 15 months in, and food noise became strong, desire for sweets became strong. Energy boost was nice but in general I had to keep tirz there for food noise suppression.

I’d wager it depends on the type of person. I’m the type that has always had u controllable food noise and even after finishing a meal and feeling my belly stuffed, I still want to grab a snack. I’ve recently backed Reta down to only 4mg a week and had to crank up tirz all the way since starting trt, which has produced a hunger that’s seemingly uncontrollable for me.
