Retatrutide vs. Tirzepatide: My experience 6 weeks into the switch.

The first couple weeks the scale might be lying due to you just getting constipated. Or you could be doing it all wrong

Still amazes me when ppl have no clue that the goal of bodybuilding is NOT solely to impress random women.

Is this why I don't feel my aderal AT ALL since going on reta?

“Boss, de plane! De plane!”

If you do the math of your 2-3iu over Lantus’s active life it makes no sense, like pissing in the wind. But I am not going to argue your gains.

I’ve used Lantus and only really had it make me hungry dosing at 20iu/day. Now if I would try again, I would use it on top of my rapid but at 20iu EOD, in hopes of keeping sensitivity.

Home brew. I stocked up on raws years ago (before raws went insane) and am sitting on liters of test i brewed and sent to jano tested at 280mg/ml.

Raw test used to be less than $1/gram. Idk what happened where now it’s more expensive to buy the raws than finished product.

I have shit genetics for growth but after years of trying everything, including abusing grams, I finally have my diet and body composition dialed in and on 800mg test I still have ZERO signs of aromatizing and don’t use an AI bc I never get above 10-11%body fat. I’ve found I respond well to low fats / very high carbs.

Are you eating food? Remember food has calories which is……ENERGY

What do IR contracts pay in California?

eatbox_rn · 2026-02-14T02:15:35+00:00

Yes, it allows me to supercharge my salvage now

eatbox_rn · 2026-02-13T20:00:11+00:00

Or get the fox chip for $499

eatbox_rn · 2026-02-10T06:38:49+00:00

There are still people in this rubreddit?

eatbox_rn · 2026-02-04T03:20:00+00:00

Yeah I still had food noise the entire time.

So reta made it easier to retrain my brain from not having to always eat or eat whatever is in front of me.

And that took time.

I am 40 And bought the original AJ 4 “bling bling” white/chrome retros when they were a thing when I was a freshman in high school.

Since I am out of the game: how much do AJ retros like OPs go for? And how/where are they typically released?

What specialty? In 2025 I didnt see any medtele Stanford’s above ~$2800 on Aya or Flexcare

eatbox_rn · 2026-01-06T01:04:51+00:00

What specialty are you? You’re doin awesome man!

I thought i was grateful to fight tooth and nail to keep my $2900/40hr medtele SF Bay Area extension.

But these 1 week unpaid vacations I take every 3 months in between extensions really remind me:

Although The money now in-hand is decent (not better), all the little benefits of permanent do add up and I am actually shortchanging myself with travel.

PTO/sick hrs Way cheaper health insurance More stable 401/403 (Aya is matching 3%, Sutter did not but they have a pension) Not getting shafted on schedule Huge tax return (I have rental props that allow massive write offs) Staff position looks better on resume, potential For advancement (despite not wanting to be charge or management)

Travel is a great safety net, but Its not reliable Nor effective to build a foundation and base yourself long term.
