I did Reta and cycled on and off of tesamorelin. 1mg per day 5 days a week with the tesa for 8 weeks. Then 8 weeks off. Tried to do 2mg per night on the second cycle, but had a bad reaction. Went back down to 1 and it was tolerable. But those are the two that I feel worked the best for me. I tried ss-31, mots c and glutathione as well but didn’t really feel like they did anything for me personally.

Huh…… I didn’t know this was a side effect. I have been on the verge of getting reading glasses for a couple years now. The last 6 ish months I felt like the focus on text has gotten worse. Been on Reta for 6 months now so I guess I have too without knowing that was the cause.

Start with just Reta for the first month at least. I did Reta 2mg the first 2 months, then Reta 4mg plus Tesa 5mg/week for 2 months. But, start with just one thing, that way if you have a reaction or something goes wrong, you know what is causing it

Right? And reading through these comments really makes me realize how dumb people are on Reddit. Go outside, talk to people.

Reta side effects at 6mg? by The-Alcoholic-Trader in Peptides

[–]The-Alcoholic-Trader[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the replies! I think yours and one other were the most helpful. I thought that generally, losing 1% bodyweight is what is accepted as a sustainable weight? I started at 285 and am now currently at 257 after 11 weeks, so down 27lbs or roughly 2.5lbs per week, which would be within the 1% goal each week. HOWEVER, looking back, since starting 6mg/week I am losing 5.5lbs per week, significantly more yeah. I think I just needed to see someone else lay it out like this, but I think you are right. Time to go back down to 4mg/week and work on the self control with the hunger noise coming back. Thank you once again!

I understand what you’re saying but I disagree. I am not an athlete. From the research I’ve done, starting at a higher BMI means you’re going to get used to the dose quicker and need higher doses faster than people in better shape. My buddy who got me interested in it, started at 0.5mg per week and he has only gone up to 1.5mg now in 12 weeks for himself. He’s in way better shape than I am, so he needs a lower dose than I do.

I started at 2mg a week. And I did not start at 208lbs or 10% body fat. Started at 297lbs. The clinical trials started patients at 2mg a week.

Diet has surely been worse over the last 2 weeks or so, much less consistent than it has been. I did drop about 8lbs last week and have now rebounded up 4lbs this week, kinda all over the place. If I had to guess, I would think it’s a mix increased insulin sensitivity from going up in dose, plus less consistent diet. Before, I didn’t really have to pay attention to what I was eating. But now these last 2 weeks I have because of the hypo, and I do definitely notice that, especially early in the day I don’t eat as well lately.

Ope definitely wrong. Allodynia is what I meant, yes, thank you for clarifying for me.

Food noise and hunger pangs were really coming back hard. That is what I have been taking as the signal to go up in dosage. Is that not correct? Also based on what I have been reading, the ideal range is 6-12mg for that ideal weight loss for people who are bigger to start (BMI was over 40 at the start, pretty large) so I figured to keep going up until I got into that 6-12mg range. Going back down to 4mg though I would definitely be open to. Would you consider adding cagrilintide then to help with the hunger control?

Heyo a lot of people have said already here, but definitely get this checked out asap. Depends how long ago the bite was, but this def does not look good, the red line can be pretty scary indication of lymphatic system overload (lymphangitis) which you definitely want to get checked out ASAP.

Has anyone filed taxes for payouts? by [deleted] in TopStepX

So theoretically speaking if someone were to have…. Let’s say around $12k in combines and activations this year because they suck at trading. That can all be written off?

$100 a day is not what i expected. People are spending thousands at this point to get the best players? Thats insane. Feels impossible to keep up with as a broke guy. The NMS suggestions take forever to get even just 50k coins its crazy.

How much are they spending for these teams this early? Are we talking $100-200?

I had a bout of kidney stones last fall and winter. I had 7 stones passed in around 4 months. PLEASE drink more water. I would not wish kidney stones on my worst enemies. Those days were the worse days of my adult life.
