Hi All,
Background: I’ve been running a low dose of either Sema or Tirz (.25mg and 1.25mg respectively) for the last year with the aim to slightly improve body comp and lower A1C. I lost about 10lbs of fat (currently at 18% BF) and got to 5.0 from 5.5 A1C. I didn’t push the dose because I was worried about muscle loss and other potential negative sides.
I read about Retatrutide and decided to jump in with both feet. I’ve initially just purchased a single vial from a known US source with all the right COAs. I’m hoping to get to and maintain low teens BF%.
I’m only on my second week - I did .5mg MWF the first week and then started once weekly dosing @ 2mg the second and plan on staying there until week five. I’m aware that Retatrutide can take a few weeks to start working, however I have seen ZERO impact to my heart rate. I wear an Oura ring. I immediately saw a sustained 10pt increase on both Sema and Tirz.
I realize Reta might require some patience, but does this potentially mean I bought junk? Wondering if I should procure another single vial and try that for my 3rd weekly dose vs waiting.
Thanks!
