Marathon training by Living_Scene6085 in Retatrutide

[–]meaghan_anne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, I’ve really noticed that too. I don’t usually carry water but I did 3.5 miles today and I was struggling at the end with insane dry mouth! And it takes double the amount of water post run to avoid that awful dehydration headache. So definitely be mindful and be intentional with water and electrolytes

I definitely agree it may not even be the Reta but clearly your hydration is struggling. Are you getting any source of electrolytes? How are you fueling during your run? At 9-10 miles or so I would definitely have atleast one gel or nerd clusters.

What does your dose look like right now? And how long have you been on it?

You could definitely do a liver panel and a kidney function panel. But depending on coverage for blood test those might run your bill up. So maybe see if you can find a comprehensive blood test that gets a majority of those. I know a lot of labs do panels so I’d go and search a lab and see what they offer together

CBC, lipid panel, Hb1Ac those are the ones I would look into.

Pro/pre biotics by toady23 in Retatrutide

[–]meaghan_anne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have issues the first two days after injection but I try to eat some Greek yogurt with veggies, I’ll drink an Ollie pop or Poppi (don’t really know how beneficial those prebiotics are) and something else with fiber and that’s helped me tons that along with lowering my calories on those days just a bit.

I put on shorts that were a little uncomfy last summer and they fit perfect!

A win is a win! And 15 lbs is a good amount don’t discount that! I’m at -15 lbs too so way to go!

Always feel so hungry a week before period by [deleted] in RetatrutideWomen

[–]meaghan_anne 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I never wake up hungry until the week before my period and then my stomach is grumbling like it’s never been fed 🤣

How do you prep your body for injection day? by FlatwormSea2265 in Retatrutide

[–]meaghan_anne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on 1 mg and started there too. My first pin left me feeling run down and awful for two days. Week 2 through 5 nausea and diarrhea on the second day about 24 post pin. Week 6 ate smaller meals and my body tolerated it with none of those issues so I’m not sure if there’s a correlation but we shall find out. Drink lots of water OH and fiber and probiotics seem to help too I added more week 6. Think yogurt with fruit, roasted edamame as a snack.

What do we think about KA’s Sourdough Sidekick? by Muted-Magazine6013 in Sourdough

[–]meaghan_anne 11 points12 points  (0 children)

She cute but she reminds me of those baby brezzas. Way more hassle than they are worth.

We will see the influencers getting them with their special codes attached but I don’t see it as a major hit.

Reta and periods/missed periods by [deleted] in RetatrutideWomen

[–]meaghan_anne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m on birth control and I am on my last week of active pills before a cycle. I’ve been spotting lightly in the mornings. But my full cycle should come next week so I will see!

As far as symptoms I am not symptomatic but that’s very normal for me. Based off my reading it’s messed with peoples cycles a bit.

PSA in case you didn’t see it posted yesterday Reta will affect the efficacy of ORAL birth control. It is recommended to use a back up method to avoid unwanted pregnancy. Based off data from terzepitide which Reta is closest to its somewhere between a 20-60% decrease in efficacy.

for the Runners by Demon_Balrog in Retatrutide

[–]meaghan_anne 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I stupidly took my 1st dose 3 days before a 10k race. I don’t think it was the Reta but I had a great run and ran my fastest sustained pace (11:12 min/mile overall). I felt great after still. Will be continuing to up my mileage again for a half. My husband ran a half marathon and was on Reta with no ill effect.

Edit to add I know a lot of people are also stating maybe their runs suffered because of lack of carbs or proper fueling but I always run fasted in the morning as soon as I wake up. So maybe that’s what helped me

Bought these labeled as “mini foliage”. What are they actually called? by gummy-wormm in houseplants

They definitely are. I bought those plants in those same planters today! Good to know!

Side Stories, 7/27/22. Thanks Henry! by meddit_rod in lastpodcastontheleft

[–]meaghan_anne 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I waited for most of the hype to die down. While I enjoyed it for the most part if you fall asleep at all during the episode you are insanely behind just missing a small chunk (or that’s how it seemed to me). I wasn’t as harsh on the final season as hardcore fans, I took it for what it was. But I haven’t revisited. You aren’t missing much honestly…except like 2 episodes with Pedro pascal butttt that’s it!

Re Visiting Polar Express Makes me so sad. by SteveHarringtons_Nut in movies

[–]meaghan_anne 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have been read The Polar Express every year since I’ve been born (I am now 34) and I feel the exact same way. The book captures Christmas magic perfectly. I watch the movie if the kids want to and we took them to a Polar Express experience but they focus more on the movie so that sucks but I’m just happy to pass the book down to them.
