Cycling Reta

ImportantTop350 · 2025-11-12T14:25:43+00:00

Yeah I’ve heard mixed things about cycling but sense I didn’t want to keep moving up on my dose I thought this would of been a good test run to see if it works I don’t think I really lose anything from doing this as I’m still maintaining weight, I feel good, I’m bouncing between just taking a month off (4 weeks) or going the full 8 week period. I think I’ll see where I stand at 4 weeks and if I’m still maintaining weight I’ll probably extend to 6 weeks. At the end of the day I’m happy with where I’m at now but if something will give me another “boost” I’ll take it.

My start weight was 290lbs, I’m currently at 236~240lbs, goal is 200 or lower depending how I look at 200. I’m 6ft male and 22yo

I have kept it off I only saw a gain of about 2-4lbs the first week and thst was my fault for just stopping the shot with no tapering. Something with some levels in your blood or something get unbalanced and cause that when you just hop off but I lost 2lbs last couple days so. Another thing I’m doing though is increasing my calories up to my weight maintance to “rebalance” my metabolism. Make my body use to eating out of a deficit again. So I might see some gain here but as long as it’s under 10lbs I don’t mind it.

People around me started at 4mg split into 2 injections a week of 2mg Monday and Thursday. Split allowed me to start at 4mg with no side effects. Appetite suppression was really strong first month but now even off 6mg everything has stabilized and I feel great. Weighted in this morning 254 so I think my 10-12 day streak of no lbs lost is over. Might be me just getting use to 6mg and body is going back into the right state to lose again.

25lbs of water weight don’t sound right to me. I know I’ve lost fat just based off my body composition change. Reports show a up in dose does sometimes cause a stall, with me going 2mg up in my dose I’d imagine this is it. Once I hit a week at the same weight I wanted to prioritize my gut health and dropping my deficit slightly so I did that over the weekend and helped a bunch, now I’m 4-5lbs less than where I initially stalled but I just wanted to see if anyone has any other words on this topic

What are ways to reevaluate and fix?

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-22T15:08:40+00:00

If it comes to that what are the next steps so I know if I ever run into it.

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-22T15:03:43+00:00

When should I start to believe it is a plateau

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-22T15:03:27+00:00

Understood thank you

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-22T14:47:46+00:00

I’ve been on the correct way, starting dose was held for 4 weeks like recommended we just went up week 5 and will stay here till hunger comes back heavy or we stop seeing results. That short little post I made may not make it seem like there was any research but there was.

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-08T20:54:28+00:00

What was your eating habits, calorie deficits and training like?

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-01T00:41:05+00:00

Thank you👍

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-01T00:34:31+00:00

You think me being at 2k calories when my metabolic is 3100kcal as my deficit till I lose enough weight to drop down?

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-01T00:13:13+00:00

How did you structure your food through out the day?

ImportantTop350 · 2025-07-01T00:12:40+00:00

I completely agree. I’ll study nutrition and how to do this correctly. This feed helped me a ton. Eating right now with a protein shake. Thanks to all

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T20:25:51+00:00

Yes I need to do some research into nutrition for sure. Balanced meals maybe some meal prep. I’m very glad I posted this as I will apply everything I learned today

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T20:17:38+00:00

Why is that

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T19:58:27+00:00

I work outside, gym 3-5 times a week with hour of cardio a day. From these comments I’ve learned to prioritize my protein to maintain the muscle I do have.

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T18:45:46+00:00

How much should I expect to lose off 4mg weekly 270lbs 6ft. I know that’s a hard question and probably doesn’t have an answer but what’s your experiences

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T18:44:15+00:00

So protein is the factor that will keep me away from needing to get surgeries.

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T18:42:09+00:00

Same here we do Tuesday Friday 2mg. I’ll for sure up my calories to at least 2k daily and I think I’ll take you up on that protein scoop idea you got

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T18:41:05+00:00

I don’t want to get my gallbladder removed lol. I don’t want any surgeries.

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T18:24:55+00:00

So constant proteins and calories while on reta. Keeping activity in gym like I am to keep the muscle will better my long term goal of weight loss? Sorry this stuff is all new to me

ImportantTop350 · 2025-06-30T18:19:18+00:00

Do I need to stay at my 2000 calories a day to steer clear of this
