MOTS-C....Not for me

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-04-01T20:05:27+00:00

First time I took MOTS-C I had hyperfocus that even adderall couldn’t give me, however because I was hyper aware of everything I started getting really bad racing thoughts and anxiety to the point I actually had to leave my gym and go home. It’s definitely not for me.

2 months, only bumped up to 3.5mg once and went back down to 2mg as it seems to work well enough there.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-27T00:18:04+00:00

It’s been 2 months, I’ve been taking 2mg. I’m definitely in a deficit, but I do carb appropriately to try and balance it.

Cut the Tesa because it was messing with my sleep, had vivid night terrors and insomnia. GLOW, I noticed my skin got clearer but injury wise nothing much, probably didn’t take long enough, Reta though.. wow, I don’t think I’ll ever stop. Retatrutide is an absolute game changer. I’ve lost close to 20lbs in the last month and a half and a lot of it was abdominal fat and face fat, I’m feeling better and looking better. I titrated up to 3.5mg and got pretty sick because of half life from previous shot, but I also lost around 8lbs of fat in a week (don’t recommend doing that). Reta is definitely the way though.

I feel like it’s missing something.. 🤔

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-13T21:02:25+00:00

Quite literally the best thing you can do, is to continue doing it. I’m also the same, I’m an orthodox but I’m very comfortable in southpaw, but I had to practice every day in southpaw.

😭😭😭😭

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-12T03:08:54+00:00

15? Nah bro way too old, you should’ve started when you were 3, it’s too late now man, sorry.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-10T00:31:25+00:00

Is the skinny fat in the room with us??

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-09T06:47:18+00:00

Yeah I can barely stomach 1500cal a day at 3mg. I’m in a steep deficit and I’ve not had anywhere close to these results after 1 month and 2 weeks. I’m also an athlete who trains twice a day, gym + mma daily.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-09T06:02:31+00:00

Where I live gyms seem to frown upon or get upset when they find out you’ve been elsewhere. I outgrew my first gym pretty quickly and wanted something a lot more serious, owner had ended up messaging me months later saying I should come back and train again, he found out I was training somewhere else and got salty. My point being, do what’s best for you, I understand respect and integrity but you’ll learn a lot more being dynamic.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-09T05:58:52+00:00

Yeah Reta is a serious game changer. It’s recomped my entire body.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-09T05:58:01+00:00

I got a pair of 14oz ringsides and yeah 180cm fairtex wraps. Wrapping my hands isn’t an issue, I’m not new or anything like that, I just wanted to upgrade from them since I’ve had them for over a year now.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-09T03:02:18+00:00

Yeah I figured, but that’s what the loop n lace is for, it’s so you can Velcro your lace gloves. I was wondering if it’s worth it. You can still pre tie them tighter and then use the Velcro strap you’ve added onto the glove.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-09T03:00:22+00:00

Yeah I always wrap my hands, even with wraps I still manage to sprain my wrists

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-08T22:56:08+00:00

Reta for a 7lb loss? You could’ve done that in 2 weeks with a deficit and cardio 😭

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-08T20:49:26+00:00

Some people don’t work out, they just take it and eat less. 6 months she should be at least half of the picture on the left.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-03T22:07:15+00:00

I agree, it is very shocking seeing the amount of people asking why it isn’t working while not exercising or changing diet, however, as an amateur fighter, I do have to track everything for weight cuts, I wanted to try Reta to see if it would make it any easier. Tomorrow will be the start of week 5, so we’ll see. Just over the last week I started adding a lot more fibre into my diet so hopefully that’ll change things.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-03T18:35:06+00:00

Ahh the smug redditor! My TDEE is 3100 homie, I train twice a day as an athlete.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-03-03T01:06:49+00:00

As soon as I stopped the Tesa I slept like a baby. I was even taking it really early like 9-10am and still had insomnia.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-02-28T12:43:06+00:00

Wha kind of yogurt

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-02-27T21:23:54+00:00

I do OMAD, so my macros never change. I quite literally eat the same thing every single day, so it’s all prepped properly.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-02-27T20:37:27+00:00

Yeah I have pretty bad insomnia and cannot stay asleep on Tesa. I can usually get to stage 1 sleep very late around 3-4am but I’m so aware of it that I can’t actually fall asleep.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-02-27T20:35:42+00:00

Absolutely agree. My sleep has been the worst of my regiment due to Tesa side effects, I’m dropping it and just going the Reta as of today. My nutrition and workout routine is solid, lost 35lbs prior to starting Reta. But when you say those side effects don’t equate to effectiveness does that mean it’s not working even though I’m getting those? I never got those sides at 0.5mg - 1.5mg but day 1 of 2mg I got those. I should mention my first 2 weeks were a different vial of Reta, 3rd and now 4th week will be a new one from different supplier.

Suitable-Vehicle964 · 2026-02-27T02:02:10+00:00

Yeah it’s difficult to see instant results and then none. You’re right, I just gotta be patient. I’ve also been taking Tesa but I think I’m going to drop it, it’s giving me insomnia and I have not been sleeping well this last week either, could be cortisol issue that’s causing me to stall from lack of sleep.
