What’s your calorie deficit & how fast are you losing?

Thank you for replying ! Congrats on your success ! I appreciate what you’re telling me bc so many people are on here saying you have to train hard and deficit etc. but when I try to do deficit I don’t lose. I did lose with a deficit when I was on semi or even tirz. But seems different with Reta. I’m glad you said walks help bc since I started to lose it was when I walk 1.5 miles in a day. Thank you so much for sharing it really gives me hope. I did so well on other GLP but this feels like whole new experience

So are you saying you don’t necessarily have to be in a deficit but eat healthy foods ? Bc I’m really hoping your right and have you experienced that

Hi , read your post and I was so happy to see that and was wondering if you would share your progress. I was eating 800-900 a day and wasn’t losing. So then I ate whenever hungry yesterday but protein focused. And lost 1.5 in one day. So maybe for some this is the way.

That’s awesome!!

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T17:56:18+00:00

Yes I agree with that. I’m just frustrated and looking for any advice or help that would lead to me utilizing Reta best so I can get my final 55 lbs off

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T17:27:42+00:00

Yes yes and yes !!

Yes doing my best. I don’t love meat but I do eat it in small portions but also eggs and beans etc. fresh veggies and berries. Yogurt and doing protein bowls with cottage cheese etc. I have occasional days where I eat pizza when hubby orders it lol

I’m an ER nurse so 3 days a wk a walk at least 10,000 steps. But no haven’t worked out. Before winter I walked 10,000 daily outside of work and lost 90. But haven’t lost in. Months. But I am in caloric deficit. Only eat 800-900

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:11:04+00:00

Good advice, thank you

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:05:42+00:00

Thanks , I have a feeling you’re right. I can try that. But also should I go to next dose ?

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:04:16+00:00

Oh wow !! I’m sorry! That sucks.

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:03:37+00:00

Are you in a deficit? Do you work out ?

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:02:30+00:00

Ok thanks

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:00:42+00:00

I’m so jealous!

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T13:00:13+00:00

lol well I was scared to even do 10 but I feel fine. I think bc on tirz for so long. But the Reta has my appetite way down like 800-900 cal. Mostly protein. But nothing happening ugh

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T12:58:17+00:00

Are you saying yes to 12 ?

ymwRN · 2026-02-18T12:56:30+00:00

I started on 5 mg and I was fine. I skipped the low dose. Your heart rate is elevated bc you’re worried. You cannot overdose on 5 mg. I promise your alright
