held mine ages
#retatrutide 2025-10-29
- first_month_fi — anyone stayed at 2.5 for months rather than climbing 18:17
- weather_watch — how long before people saw the first change at 2 19:08
- weather_watch — did the phase 2 result actually come in higher than the tirzepatide numbers 19:24
- cricket_or_footy — blood pressure stayed flat for me while heart rate moved, which i didnt expect 20:41
anyone stayed at 2.5 for months rather than climbing
the heart rate thing is real enough that i mention it whenever someone asks about starting
[edited]triple agonist meaning GLP-1, GIP and glucagon, have i got that right
sorry to jump in triple agonist, GLP-1 and GIP and glucagon. the glucagon arm is the part with no long history
smaller steps here
TRIUMPH is phase 3
energy expenditure isnt something i could feel, though my sleep tracker disagreed with me
watching my heart rate
how long before people saw the first change at 2
baseline 58
wk 2 61
wk 4 64
wk 6 67
wk 8 66
wk 10 65 (held dose from wk 7)did anyone come off because of the heart rate
unrelated but i log resting heart rate every morning because of this and its the one number i actually watch
did the phase 2 result actually come in higher than the tirzepatide numbers
[edited]mine went up too
stepping in 5 increments instead of doubling is the only thing i would change if i started again
there is no long term safety data, phase 2 and an ongoing phase 3 programme is what exists
no idea whether the heart rate settles for everyone, mine did and one log isnt data, ask me again in a month
how slow is low and slow here, four weeks a step or longer
*week 34 not week 6
anyone gone above 2 and what changed
i said 3 months ago that my heart rate had settled and it has stayed settled since
reconstituted the 15 vial to 10mg/ml specifically so i could take 1.7 without measuring crumbs
blood pressure stayed flat for me while heart rate moved, which i didnt expect
is the GI worse than tirzepatide or about the same
i went up too fast, got a fortnight of nothing but nausea, and dropped back two steps, n of 1 obviously
whats a sensible starting point, im seeing everything from 0.5 to 2
anyone reconstituting 30 vials to 5 so the steps come out smaller
phase 2 doses are published and theyre not far off what people here run, coincidence rather than plan
nobody should read my log as a plan, im recording what i did and thats all it is
quick one research use only is on every vial and i treat it as exactly that, nobody here is prescribing
Purity check: no report on file for lot E-2205. Nothing logged either way.
lost 34kg over 4 months at doses well under what the trials used
the phase 2 weight result was larger than what the earlier agonists reported, in a smaller shorter trial
