Stopped losing weight..

[JRocket]

I have been on Reta since about May. Lost 25 lbs early on and then over the last 2 months haven't lost a pound. Or at least the scale doesnt show it. I do lift 3 times a week and started TRT back in September. I know I am building muscle now so maybe I am gaining muscle at around the same rate,.

My food noise has increased lately so I am looking for some feedback here.

I usually take 1.25 mg 3-4 times a week = 3.75 mg - 5 mg a week

Should I bump up my dosage to 8mg-10mg? Some said they scaled down rather than up to help with side effect rather than food noise. Or should I look at stacking something else to help with the food noise?

I've heard more than one person say that split dose reta didn't work for them as well as once-weekly larger dose.

You are on a low dose for a long time using with no loss.
From 6-8 mg the glukagon part really kicks in, titrate up.
And don't do it 3-4 times per week, 1 or 2.

The various studies seem to support that 8mg-12mg 1x week shot. The cost benefit landscape at 8mg for me personally. But I’ll have to see how 4mg affects me. I would say try the higher 1x a week dose and see how you respond.
