So, a little background info. I’ve been on Trt for the past 4 years. I’ve done a few short 1-2 month blast. Although it doesn’t have much to do with Reta…
Im usually in decent shape. Most ppl think im in good shape but im honestly somewhere around 25-27% BF. Im also on a ssri, ADHD, and a sleep med seraquel. I’m not going to go any further into to that. But if you have any questions feel free to ask!
( Food wise)
I started Reta Monday night at .75-1mgish.
I did stuff my face before I went to bed and while trying to sleep. A major side effect of my sleep med. before everyone starts judging for not being disciplined the best way I can describe to you Broskie. Is if you have had any expierence taking mk677. You can be completely full before taking it and not even the smallest desire to eat anything else. But, the second you take mk677 all of a sudden you go from full to feeling like you haven’t ate in 2 days and raid the fridge like some sort of wild animal.
“The first 24” Anyway…. So I stuffed my face that night and the next morning I wasent hungry one bit I think I made it until 1pm to where I was still not hungry at all but decided let me at least put a protein bar down to have something in my stomach.
Regular meals in the day where I usually have no problem eating a proper amount of food. I can only eat about half that before I’m full. Also I noticed the change of me having to be mindful of what I’m eating and to not over eat. To now being mindful that I should put something in my stomach bc I barely had any breakfast and it’s already 5pm and I’m still not really hungry. I ate around 8pm I had 75% of a quesadilla before I was to full it eat more. I did get the munchies again an hour after taking my sleep meds. I just dident eat as crazy as usually
Day three
My appetite was more suppressed by than the day before. No nausea, or any side effects other then just not being that hungry
I wanted to get breakfast because I wasn’t hungry so I just made a shake. I made eggs about five hours later once again I wasn’t really hungry but trying to keep protein coming in.
Energy/ mood and medication effects
For not eating for prolonged periods as to where I would start getting cranky and sluggish and a drop off in energy. Yeah, dident happen at all
Aderall xr I usually split in 2 bc xr will only last 4-5 hrs for me. When those wear off I have a IR booster dose. The xr lasted me the whole day. Which it never does on the first day. I felt great to just a smooth flow of energy
Day two: I took the aderall xr half of it and the other half 3 hrs later. I ended up having a crazy amount of anxiety almost felt like I took double my dose. I take a 20mg xr as split that into two doses. For two reasons. To give me longer coverage through out the day and bc sometimes a full dose will make me a little to anxious. I was pacing around the house like it was bad.
Today I skipped the aderall to see if it that was def the cause of anxiety and it seems like it was. I feel fine today with out taking it.
Reta seems to slow the release of xr even longer which seems which is good bc you can take less but it does seem to really intensify the dose. So for ppl that are on adhd meds definitely be a little cautious and mindful.
I will continue to update the log through out my journey. Ssri have a long half life so any changes in that I’ll probably notice next week. I’ll keep up with the weight loss or gain
Day 3 I’m up +3lbs weighed my self in the morning
