Congrats! I’m 5 pounds from goal, so I’m curious too. Maintenance is a whole new ballgame.

My inclination would be to avoid making huge changes in the dosages. Try 8 mg tirz and 3 mg reta and see how you feel and if you continue to lose weight. Great job.
why not just stay where you are? Still Dropping?

Because the person doesn't want to continue losing weight.

I'm in a similar situation (5lbs to goal). I was at 10mg Tirz, did my first pin of Reta (2mg) last week and dosed Tirz down to 7.5 today. My plan is to titrate Tirz down to zero over the next 3-4 weeks and titrate Reta up to 6mg over the next 8-12 weeks and try it solo for maintenance.
If my heart rate doesn't cooperate I will stop the Reta and dose Tirz back up, hopefully to just 7.5mg and stay there. I will adjust dosing schedule based on feelz/weight.
This is my plan, but you know what they say about plans.

Congratulations on your success! Thats awesome.
It’s going to be trial & error as far as dose & timeframe between doses, imho. Maybe start by lowering dose or spacing time in between doses ( or both ) and pay close attention to how you feel ( hunger/cravings ) and weigh yourself once a week? This is what I’m doing/trying to do.
I got down to 120lbs (5’4 female ) and did not want to lose anymore. Ended up down to 109lbs. I think I have finally figured out what works for me. ( managed to get back to 120 & would be happy if I gained another 5-10lbs ) I’m at lower dose and go longer in between doses. Seems to be working so far.
Good luck!
