Think Ima lay off hoarding reta.

So I've GOT ten years max dose of tirz, which is what I'm on. I've tried out a vial of r-30, not long enough or on a smart enough titration to get meaningful and consistent experience, but long enough to know that it doesn't cause me any particular side effects and starts to take effect at around 8 mg, which is all I actually wanted. It's always been my intention to stay on tirz, stash the reta in the freezer, and maybe switch to it someday when it's been approved and has been out in the general population long enough for us to know a lot more about it . And I do like to slow-hoard, which is to buy a kit every month or two when there's a good price, and stopping if I get to ten years max dose like I did with tirz.

I'm at five years mid-dose stash with reta, but I think Ima stop there. Like, I know that tirz is tirz is tirz, it's a cockroach, it lives forever in a good freezer, you can freeze it after recon so you can work with way-higher-than-your-dosage vials, it doesn't degrade much in the freezer, and there's not a lot of drama with its manufacture. I know it's basically fine to doomsday-hoard tirz.

But every new discussion about reta is "hey, this is weird and sensitive." Sometimes it goes cloudy even with hospira cause maybe the excipient has some salts or something which will wreck it. It doesn't freeze well or it does and degrades a lot after 45 days. Also sometimes it doesn't degrade very fast at all and other times it degrades REALLY fast, let's spin the wheel.

The reason I'm not using it yet is because of all of the early-years uncertainty on how this stuff acts and whether it's safe and the fact that we don't really know as much about it as we do about stuff that's been around for longer. But I'm thinking maybe those ought to be the reasons I don't actually stash a lot of it yet, either.

I have no doubt that when the next big things come out, I'll want to stash those too because wheee. But I think I'll cap "this is new" stashes at two years,

10yrs? Doesn't it lose potency after year 2?
 
Will it really last 10 years in a regular freezer? Sorry there's just been conflicting reports in the past and no one has been able to test keeping it 10 years long and then testing it.

I've said it before, they don't want their name mentioned on public forums.

Have you joined there and read the rules or anything? That's why we abbreviate with WW.

Yes, I read that previously here. Ive previously searched T G no luck . I'll keep trying. Ty

The caveat being reta is a more complicated and fragile peptide that has been available for only 3 years. Nobody really knows what it will do in 5-10 years.

Reta is very robust. It holds up in the human body for at least 5 weeks, at 98.7 degrees. Testing is showing it lasts at least 90 days reconstituted in the fridge.

We are of a similar mindset. I am a newbie, but I already have 4 years of Tirz, which I love and about the same in Reta (FOMO as I haven't even tried it yet). And I still find myself scanning the vendor posts every day looking for more. But I have decided to wait until I figure the group buy thing out to buy more, despite myriad temptations. Now that I have graduated to apprentice and can hang out with the cool kids, I have more doors open tI have a stash of years from 2023/24. Luckily mostly a lurker so have been scammed 0 times.

I saw you too. Did you see where one person ordered 20 kits?

I was almost done after that R140, but J5 just put his MLB R50 in the store. I like that stuff and could stand it.
She only did get one, and her name is right after me.

Some people buy to resell. Or they help friends and family.

Isn't it more short sighted to assume that what you're on now is your be all and end all?

Locking yourself into 5–10 years of one compound is basically betting that innovation will stall, which is the opposite of what’s happening.

When I mentioned 'better', I wasn't referring to faster and more significant weight loss, I was thinking more like Reta/Tirz dupes with better side effect profiles, longer-acting versions (less frequent dosing), oral versions improving etc.

Having a buffer of a few years is great, but I think staying open for better options (whatever that means to you and your goals) makes more sense.

I have simular issues. I hoard reta too. I am on tirz for maintenance and I love it. I have never even tried reta but man it is popular. Almost every new peptide user I meet is on what they incorrectly call GIP-3. The thing is if and when society breaks down, reta will be like cigarettes in prison. Gold, silver and retta will be the currency. Whenever I need to bump up a peptide order to get free shipping I usually add reta or more tirz.

I wish you luck quitting hoarding reta. I don't know if I could quit if I wanted to.

Actually of society breaks down everyone will get skinner. No money, cant buy food.

Look at poor nations only the rich are obese its a plain display in the Philippines or Nigeria.

Just go to Costco here in Canada and watch everyone coming out with 20 bags of potatoes chips the big bag where a 3 year old kid can use as a sleeping bag.... legit....

Then after shopping hard because people dont want cook at home they hit the cheap hot dogs and pizza at the consignment on the way out...

Don't get me wrong I was obese and did the very same thing for 27 years. Its choice and its all in our heads from up bringing to of age etc.

We live with abundance so most of us live that way.

Yes! Before anyone jumps on me hating because theres people with hereditary issue or life long struggles, I totally understand that my point here is simple... no extra money means mo extea food. No extra food means more chance no extra weight..

Like the run on toilet paper during covid haha totally and absolutely no need for that other then we live in Abundance and are spoiled.

Like why do you need 7 years Reta?

Can't you diet properly after being less weight, if not then I would say its more a physiological issue then glp can fix.

Spoken like someone that has never struggled with food noise. I lost all my weight without GLPs and was maintaining it and would have continued to do so. Adding Tirz substantially improved my quality of life. It went from a constant fight with food noise to being ae to focus on a healthy diet without constant worry about being hungry.

But I'm probably wasting my time explaining. I can't decide if you are a troll or if you genuinely just have a garbage take on almost every issue. Probably a bit of both I would guess.

Thats interesting. You know me from where?
I know all about food noise... its called how bad do you want to lose it .... true and utter passion combined with glps , you should be more then on your wait to losing atleast some weight or not thinking food all day long every thought, every second.

Say whatever you want. Once again you dont know me. I dont know you. You reply was just to argue.

My reply was not argumentative but intended to push back at your behavior. Honestly, it could have been more constructivly worded, so I'll try again. Your posts have a tendency to be unnecessarily argumentive and condescending. Most of us have disagreements on at least some things and most of us try and share facts and opinions in a respectful manner without talking down to people. Whether you intend it or not, your posts to not seem designed to elicit reaction rather to advance any discussion. I've said my piece and I'll leave it at that.

Absolutely 100% spot on. I could see it in the first post I read of his. Reminds me a little of couple of members here or were here.

nah
junk food will ALWAYS be cheaper than whole food ALWAYS
yes its a choice but sacrificing everything to get healthy and starting to say NO to every junk food that you ated for the last 25 years is rough
really rough

im like 5lbs of my 6 pack and be shred the hell out! its been a rough 2 years
GLP helped me for the last 5 months and they are a god send ( wouldl have started 2 years ago if i knew )
even after 2 years of changing food habit my binge eating disorder is still there and will always be there sadly
i stacked Reta and Tirz in the freezer for at least 4 years of dosing and maintenance
il prolly be on reta or tirz for life because its just simpler with the food noise and saying no to junk and over eating.
One less thing to worry about

Can't you diet properly after being less weight, if not then I would say its more a physiological issue then glp can fix.
If you can do it without any help good for you
but with that sentence why in the hell werent you dieting all your life and how were you a fatso eating junk all the time
