Reta vs Tirz

[seelos]

Hey all, I'm very new to this community and I was wondering if anyone could provide some clarification on these two weight loss drugs.

When I first discovered retatrutide it sounded way too good to be true, but after further research it seems to do exactly what it claims with minimal sides (sensitive skin is the only one I've found). However, it seems that most of the experienced people on here still only discuss tirz as the best option.

I am aware that the appetite suppression effects of reta is overall weaker compared to other weight loss drugs, but ever since I did a couple aggressive mini cuts I haven't really had much trouble with not eating. Is the tirz preference just because most people need more appetite suppression, or is there something else that I'm missing?

I'm waiting on a shipment of reta so I can share my experience soon enough.

@Lifting88 As high as you can go without hunger dissipation. It’s going to be different for everyone. 0.75mg sema has my bloods looking amazing and I have little impact on my eating.

I started on tirz then moved to Reta as the appetite suppressant was to much on turn, I’ve found on Reta I can literally eat all my six meals, with Reta I’ve found I’m not thinking of food in between meals, my blood sugars are more stable on Reta, fasting test is slightly lower, and post meal seams more stable

While tirz is slightly more effective for lowering glucose and a1c, reta blows tirz out of the water for insulin sensitivity (caveat is I believe we only have data on diabetics for reta, though). I would think that would be relevant to a bodybuilding community.

im starting to think the lethargy on tirz might just be related to digesting food 24/7

I’d imagine people who report sides on the GLP1s are just eating past their hunger signals and the medicine will punish you for that.

Gotta remember 90% of people taking them already have bad/disordered eating habits

many guys were getting more blood glucose control with tirzepetide

blood glucose control

This is not the same thing as insulin sensitivity.
