RETA First 24 hours and Week 1
Been on 50mg/week TRT for 2 months, just added Reta .
Took 1mg on Monday. Within ~10 hours the food noise was gone. No nausea, no GI side effects, no vomiting, no headaches.
First 3 days were a breeze. Ate healthy. Enjoyed my meals, but had zero problem avoiding junk and overeating. Was eyeballing a 500-700cal deficit.
Had 1 weird side effect: Felt like I had sand between two of my toes on my left foot, or like a miniature electrical current was constantly zapping me there. Didn’t hurt at all. Took some magnesium and Gatorlyte and it went away.
Day 4 the food noise started to creep back in, but I was able to ignore it and eat proper.
Day 5 the food noise was very loud. Cravings were really strong, and I ended up eating a surplus of +200-400cals.
Today is Day 6. I pinned 1 mg this morning and fought off the cravings all day until they went away.
Started week1 at 219lbs. Down 6lbs to 213lbs, probably 3-5lbs of it is water.
BF was around 25-26% when I started. Probably not much different yet.
