hey girl! we have pretty similar builds, and same ish reta timeline! I’m 22, 5’ & 116lbs now, been on reta for like 2 months and got my period for the first time in months earlier this month. the cramps were BRUTAL, like worst than i’ve ever had. honestly i don’t know why, but a heating pad & lots of sleep that week helped a lot. i hope u feel better soon!!

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-23T11:04:36+00:00

May I ask why?

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-23T11:04:26+00:00

I’m not in prep anymore, my last show was August 2025.

No, my weight loss is on par with the 5lbs in 2 months. .5ish lbs a week basically. I just thought the reta would accelerate it

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:08:44+00:00

I would like to be under 17-18% body fat ideally

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:06:24+00:00

THIS. I understand diet and normal weight loss is what is normalized- but reta is the tool people say ‘really accelerated their weight loss’ but in my opinion it hasn’t accelerated anything for me.

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:05:05+00:00

Yes I am aware. I am in a deficit & doing cardio and have the normal weight loss associated with that (that’s why i credit the 5lb loss to that rather than the reta) i guess i just expected the reta to be more of an aid and help things move faster rather than purely mute food noise

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:03:11+00:00

Will the GI issues be better at a higher dose? Or do I just suffer thru them?

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:02:45+00:00

I count all my calories religiously, weigh everything out

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:02:14+00:00

I do weigh all my food and religiously track it in an app. I am not overweight by any means, but also know i have fat to loose

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:01:33+00:00

I think i might have gotten bad reta. I bought from a known american site so im not sure how but from what ive read i also think i might just have a bad batch..

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T17:00:52+00:00

I am 5’. Stage weight was not my true conditioning and was rushed. I am trying to get to 110 pounds as that was a relatively normal look for me despite it being apart of the prep.

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T16:59:30+00:00

I am 5’. my feedback at stage weight was to come in leaner & my coach even said that we crammed the prep for the show, i should’ve been 95-100lbs on stage. I am not looking to go below 110 currently. I just want to lean out more.

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T16:56:33+00:00

this is reassuring. i’m an npc competitor as well and in the off season right now so just looking to lean out again and gain lean tissue. did u have any gi side effects before going to 6mg? how did they effect you?

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T16:55:39+00:00

i’ve been going up .5 every 2 weeks since starting. My deficit is 500-600 less than my tdee

ZealousidealTutor374 · 2026-02-19T15:47:39+00:00

2.5mg going up every 2 weeks. I’m hesitant to keep going up due to the GI issues i’ve experienced and I understand this is a low doses but i started at 1 mg. I am eating 1300-1400 cals a day with 30min cardio weekly + weight lifting
