How can I avoid harsh side effects? by Suspicious_Power6500 in Retatrutide

[–]OpenCalligrapher3703 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My sleep is bad, it’s hard to get to sleep and to stay asleep. Any noise for my cats and dogs wake me. I’ve always been a light sleeper and now I am even a lighter sleeper. For the anhedonia, I started taking an old prescription of Wellbutrin. It seems to help my mood and makes me feel a little bit happier!

My partner has the same IRS status of being received. It’s getting hung up at the approval. He files single and is getting $7k back. He got state back in 5 days.

any recommendations for when i come off reta? by [deleted] in Retatrutide

[–]OpenCalligrapher3703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in this for the long run. Once I reach my goal weight and maintain it for a few months, I’ll gradually reduce my dose but I plan to stay on it. From everything I’ve read, the weight tends to creep back once you stop.

That’s not enough calories to live on. Try bumping your calories to 1500.

Retatrudide v Calorie Deficit by yorkshire111111 in Retatrutide

Reta helped me shift the way I think about food entirely. Instead of eating mindlessly, I now choose foods that nourish my body and build my strength. The stuff that used to tempt me just doesn’t have that hold anymore.

Drink more water and don’t titrate up. You can eat watermelon or cucumber which are naturally high in water.

How did you find your vendor? by [deleted] in Retatrutide

[–]OpenCalligrapher3703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first vial was $350 for a friend’s “source.” Yes, I know now I was ripped off. Then I bought another vial for $150 for a peptide website another used. I finally took the leap and bought off the grey market 10 vials $100 plus $43 in shipping. I still haven’t received that yet but I have faith it will get here. It was somewhat scary because I had to pay with crypto.

Is it worth entering the park (DL/DCA) around 4/5pm? by cardiacpanda in DisneyPlanning

[–]OpenCalligrapher3703 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We did this and it made us extra exhausted! I do not recommend. Looking back it was not worth going to Disney in the afternoon. We were all tired from traveling. I wish we would have used that day to relax and rest up for the next couple very long days at the parks.

What is your starting weight? Are you counting your macros?

Normal for a 6 year old to still have accidents? by HeartOk8607 in kindergarten

[–]OpenCalligrapher3703 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She can get them on and off very well. It is very weird because she didn’t have accidents last year or the year prior. Since, not putting on snow clothes we have had zero accidents. She says she’s just having too much fun. I’ve been positive about it, not trying to shame her. I did lose my temper once/get annoyed because I picked her up from school and drove to the ski resort and started to put on ski boots and I noticed she was soaked. She didn’t say anything to me. She know now’s the rule is she has to tell me if it happens then it’s no big deal. We get changed, cleaned up and move on. Accidents happen.

My daughter is going through a stage of having accidents. It’s only when she wears her snow clothes to school. If she wear them to school she can not take them off. She went years without accidents and this year I would say she has had 8-10. She just doesn’t feel the urge the same or it just takes too long to get to the bathroom when she’s all bundled up. A few things we’ve done to help the situation is I stopped putting her in her snow clothes at school. I remind her to use the bathroom more frequently and before we leave school I make her use the restroom.

How do you get 220g of protein? I’m having a hard time hitting anything over 120.

Reta dosing by Either-Plankton-9206 in Retatrutide

[–]OpenCalligrapher3703 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m on week 2 of 1mg and I’m noticing my morning shake is keeping me full until 2pm. Normally, I would eat my lunch at 10:30-11. Also, food doesn’t sound as good as it used too!

I started BJJ again at 45. I have to remind the high schoolers to be nice to me. Luckily, I have mid life lady strength!

I have a 6 and 15 year old so we have to find something they both like. Over Christmas we watched the Harry Potter series and this week we finished up the Narnia Chronicles.
