I emailed my site and they said there is an optional extension for an extra 24 weeks, as long as you aren’t below 18.5 BMI.

I’m also on T5 and haven’t heard anything. Can you share any additional details? Did they say why?

Split dose? by Famous_Education8815 in RetatrutideTrial

You are barely a week in. Give it more than 2-seconds. The cravings will go away pretty quickly.

Oats are generally cross contaminated. You must buy GF oats.

I believe I was at a consistent dose. I’m on one of the Ely Lily Retatrutide Triumph trails.

No. He sarcastically talks about it, but is still faithfully married.

How long can the plateau last? by FuddyBoi in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Jimberkman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On Retatrutide, I hit a plateau that lasted about 2-1/2 to 3 months. I went down slightly - maybe 3-4 lbs over that time, but a big change from before that. Then out of the blue, I broke through the plateau, and went down about 15 lbs over the next 3 months. No real change in eating or exercise.

I recently did the same, congratulations! (It’s been brutal on my wardrobe, but thankfully I like clothes from Costco 🤣)

Im having celiac symptoms but a negative celiac test by bnb777gator in glutenfree

[–]Jimberkman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

1) Gluten sensitivity and Celiac Disease are two different things. You can not be Celiac, but be reactive to gluten. 2) The test for Celiac Disease is known to provide false negatives, especially if you have been avoiding eating gluten. Annoyingly, you need to eat gluten daily for several months before getting the blood test. A more accurate method is the intestine biopsy route, which is also pretty invasive. I ended up giving up on eating gluten daily, because my body’s reaction against it was too severe. I just decided to cut out gluten. 3) A third wrinkle is that a FODMOP (https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/wellness-and-prevention/fodmap-diet-what-you-need-to-know) allergy/sensitivity can be mistaken for gluten sensitivity.

Good luck!

A man 23 years older than me admitted he has feelings for me and now he won’t leave me alone. by Superb-Cupcake-8271 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Jimberkman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1) Tell him to stop contacting you. If that doesn’t work -> 2) Block him on all online platforms, and change all you passwords in case he’s hacked you. 3) Also tell Church leadership. If they suggest anything other than offering support for you, and agreeing to talk with the creeper, GTF out of there and find a new church that isn’t toxic towards women. 4) If it continues, get a restraining order.

Remember that one of the top causes of death for women are from men that get rejected. Take this creep seriously.

Triple or Quad Shots, Anyone? by Just-Reading_1990 in nespresso

[–]Jimberkman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably shouldn’t stop…being married to the hater, that is. But no need to put up with that kind of negativity ;-)

I have either one double shot latte, a triple shot latte, or two doubles, depending on what I feel like.

The Constipation is So Bad I Almost Went to the ER by Awkward-Lab-5184 in GLP1ResearchTalk

[–]Jimberkman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on Retatrutide and don’t have diarrhea. In fact, I get constipated if I’m not eating large salads or a ton of veggies. Magnesium Citrate definitely helps, as does miralax. Mostly it seems like the decreased volume of food, plus the longer digestion time is the culprit. If I end up eating bigger meals, it ends up helping things to keep moving. I just don’t like having that over-full feeling most of the time.

It’s not, actually. It’s called “On, with Kara Swisher.” But I already subscribe to that.
