Reta while bulking for fat loss?

[isopropyl]

Is it reasonable to use Reta while bulking for its fat burning effect while getting over its appetite suppression to eat in a moderate surplus?

Worst case scenario, you can drink your calories. .... with that brick-in-my-stomach feeling you get from reta.

I can't put into words how I hate that feeling, or just being full in general.
Eating one 500kcal meal, followed by a 1000kcal meal, with rest just being shakes of whey isolate or clear whey, with added soluble carbs like malto or cyclo would be my absolute dream.

It wasn't always like that, but eating enough food has became the single worst thing about this sport for me.

Yah, it's pretty uncomfortable. Not sure if you're into cannabis but a couple rips off my vape pen and that feeling is gone and I'm ready to raid the fridge in an hour.

Gotcha. That makes more sense. It could help with that. Better blood sugar control and insulin sensitivity. But there's a point where the dose could go to high, slow down digestion too much, and significantly suppress appetite. It's a fine line. If you've never been on reta, start low and build up slowly. GLPs have a half life significantly longer than a week. So, even if you feel good after a week, that doesn't mean it's safe to up the dose. Ideally, you would maintain that dose for at least 3 weeks, preferably four, before making the decision to up it.

The reta half-life is 6 days. (The tirz half-life is 5 days.)

Not that I can actually tolerate cannabis, but I also hate being even remotely under the influence of anything in general.

Which mean's it's not saturated in a week. 3-4 weeks for full saturation.

And 6 half lives to re-sensitize (36 days off for the math challenged). This comes in handy if your tolerance gets too high and dosing starts hurting your wallet or we get a peptide winter.

So at what dosage you can expect full insulin sensitizing effects?I think i can eat enough on bulk while on 5mg of reta.

I didn't even factor that in, because I am an idiot. I knew about its half-life but somehow half-life and peptides didn't match in my head.

Given that, my no appetite on 1mg would have been even worse after a few weeks.
