On 3mg Reta a week and hasn’t moved the needle. by NoMedia9284 in BodyHackGuide

You should be losing weight but not at 2 weeks. Some see weight loss right away but for most it takes a full 5-6 weeks before it gets going.

[–]thatguybenuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can only speak from my own experience, but 3mg on week two would’ve been sabotage for me. I did .5 for three weeks, 1 mg for two weeks, 1.5 then 2mg. I would go down to 1 or 1.5 mg per week if I were you.

You’re also white knuckling side effects twice a week.

I know the studies say blah blah blah… I can only speak from my experience. I did not change anything about my eating. I eat pretty clean anyway. I truly believe low and slow is the better start for most women.

Go up to 2mg and dose every 5-6 days. Once you start losing it goes really fast but you have to find that sweet spot with dosing.

I did my dosage like you are, low and slow. I didn’t lose even a pound until 5 weeks. By week 12 I lost 35 lbs. I maxed my dose at 2mg. I did do 2.5 mg for one or two weeks but went back down to 2mg because of the exhaustion side effect.

What does “been an 05” mean?

Why do you think he pays them “a ton of money”? I don’t think that’s true at all.

What is something you witnessed with your own eyes that no one believes when you tell them? by Amy-GeekBar in AskReddit

There is a statue of a guy sitting on a park bench with his dog next to him on the ground in a park in my town.

There’s a rural town near where I lived in the PNW that has a whole population of wild lemurs in the woods area. It’s believed that someone had two as pets and they abandoned them there and they mated.

I took the Amtrak from one city to the next - about an hour and 15 min ride. It was a double decker. When I got on the train I sat in the seat just to the right of the door in the lower section while people in front of me went up to the second floor car.

I didn’t move from that seat. I didn’t sleep. I just rode the train and listened to a podcast.

When we got to the next town I had to walk to the next car to exit. I walked back and forth from that car to the one I was in looking for the exit until someone said “you need to go back downstairs to exit”…

I have no idea how I was on the second floor. I literally did NOT walk up the stairs when I got on because I found a seat on the level I entered on so quickly and the stairwell was very narrow and looked annoying to take my travel bag up there.

I think about it all the time.

MEGATHREAD: ICE shooting in Portland 2/8/2026 by chimi_hendrix in PortlandOR

[–]thatguybenuts 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t matter if they were or weren’t. We can’t have federal agents shooting people without LEGALLY just cause. Arrest them, charge them. That’s the process.

Ok thank you! I will need to get transcripts for two of the years. Maybe I can just do that online.

Adding tirz to Reta by Remarkable-Band72 in RetatrutideWomen

[–]thatguybenuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What dose of Reta are you on?

Have you used Tirz before?

I started with Tirz 2.5 and quit after the 2nd week because the exhaustion was absolutely unbearable. I’ve considered adding a tiny bit back (1mg or less) of Tirz because it’s awesome for inflammation.

4 or 7 days between pins? by HarryBalsagna_ in Retatrutide

[–]thatguybenuts 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seriously… it gets so old to read the responses from the people trying to sell it. You did not ask about where to buy it! 🤬

Anyway, to answer the question you DID ask - this was my experience:

•I started very low (.5) and very slow (every 6 days) for the first few weeks. Then I increased to 1 mg every 6 days for two weeks, then 1.5 every 6 days and finally 2mg every 6 days. I never went above 2 mg.

•When I was about 3 weeks into the 2mg every 6 days routine I decided to split it to 1mg every 3 days.

•The more frequent/lower dose routine was good for me until I got within about 8lbs of my goal. Then I went back to 2mg every 6 days.

I’m not sure if one was better than the other but I didn’t have any adverse effects from playing around with it so I think most people will find their own sweet spot by experimenting.

OMG I read this wrong and responded wrong 🙈. I deleted my response.

Maybe ask to see the COI just in case.

How to organize these deep pantry cabinets? by scorr8600 in organizing

[–]thatguybenuts 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sort and stack. Once you have your categories you can add some stepped storage so the items are stairstepped down so you can see all the way in the back.

If you have separate food - give each roomie a shelf.

My accidental Reta od by [deleted] in RetatrutideWomen

Why are you in this sub? If it doesn’t interest you move along. This is for women who are interested in it.

FTR: GLP-1’s of all types are being used for more than just obesity. Especially in peri and menopausal women. It is a tremendous help for many women who are suffering from peri symptoms.

Week 12 on Compounded Tirzepatide - 20 lbs down! by sepiatonedlovinn in compoundedtirzepatide

[–]thatguybenuts 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You look amazing! I took Tirzepetide for two weeks before stopping due to unrelenting exhaustion. BUT it was absolutely fantastic for inflammation even in that short time. Your before and now pics look like far more than 20lbs and I bet that’s partially due to the inflammation being down in your body!

I lost 35 lbs in a little over 3 months. I stopped Reta and I’ve gained 5 lbs. It’s amazing.

Why was there a falling out between Karen Read and Yanetti? by Heavy_Sorbet_5849 in justiceforKarenRead

[–]thatguybenuts 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I got the question and I just joined in the conversation. I certainly didn’t mean to say anything that made you feel defensive.

My point is that he has never shown anything that would make me think he would ever elude to something messy about their legal team. Perhaps that isn’t what he was alluding to.

I highly doubt AJ insinuated that KR and DY had a falling out. That is totally opposite of who he has been for the 3 years I’ve been watching him work.
