I am really happy with my results so far. I've only been on Retatrutide since late July and I think I'll be at my goal body comp in a month, max. I'm currently doing 2mg every 3.5 days. I previously had some increased skin sensitivity for a few weeks, but now I have zero negative side effects. Was losing a very steady 1-1.5 lbs per week. Maintained all strength.

Question for those of you who hit your goal - did you completely stop? Taper to a lower dose? Immediately transition to a lower dose? Has anyone had success with a very low "microdose"? .5mg or less only once per week?

I stayed at the dose I was on. It kinda fell around where I feel I should be weight wise. I know If I lower I will devour sweets again. At my current dose I do get hungrier than I did when I was slowly increasing. I do get full and can stop myself. I do get sweet cravings but it's nothing like before. Usually something small or just some carbs can curb it. For me these are lifetime meds. Hopefully will always have affordable access.
