Reta results

I’ve officially completed weight loss into recomp, and now going into bulk......

Tried to hit 2000 cals even though it was hard af just getting my g/lbs of protein. ........

What a journey it’s been. Reta has changed my life and guided me to not only being in tune with my body, but health and dieting right. Now during bulk I’m upping calories from 2000-3000. Tried it out today. Fell short lol. Was full af by early afternoon. Settled for a protein shake early evening and still fell short by 300 cals!
Yep. 62 y.o., male. 6/2/25, sw, 232. I hit gw of 188 on 10/27. My intent was and continues to be to bulk muscle back up to the 195 - 200 range and .... I have not been able to accomplish that. lol I'm not even using reta. I've been using 7.5 tirz and 1.8 survo since 10/17 and maintaining current weight range of 185-188 is pretty much effortless. However, because I have serious cardio concerns (atherosclerosis and just received a stent) and because I have an ortho/cervical issue at C5-C6 that I am currently trying to resolve, I am leery to titrate down now that I have my lipids/A1c/healthy food intake/weight management/moderate exercise basically on autopilot. I have tried to increase my kcal from 1800-ish to above 2500 and it is really hard to do - especially the 1g protein/1 lb of body weight.
🙂

At least we're able to actually work on these things today. I am super grateful for that instead of being beaten by the seeming alternative.
