Hi! I’ve gotten into bodybuilding in the past year and aim to compete in my first show by the end of the year (20F, 5’6, 140lbs). I ended a pretty long cut November 2025 before reversing and now bulking. My coach and I are planning to bulk until around July of this year. Just finished a 6 week cycle of igf1 around 2 weeks ago for muscle growth. However, I have been dealing with INTENSE and almost daily food noise since the end of my cut, and have been dealing with binges pretty frequently. I had initially brought up the idea of reta to my coach, but she had said igf would be better for the phase I am in and I should use reta for my cut / prep. However, I am so tired of the food noise and bingeing and feel I need some extra assistance with that. Has anyone transitioned from IGF to reta soon after a cycle? I’ve heard of it being used for lean bulks, but want to know if I need to wait a few weeks before starting reta to let my body adjust, etc. LMK!!!
