unpopular opinion: retatrutide is massively overrated
Confession thread, sort of. I went from 2.5mg to 1.0mg much faster than I should have because the scale had stalled and I got impatient. The stall broke about 8 weeks later, at which point I had no way of knowing whether the dose increase did anything or whether it would have broken anyway. So now I have constipation…
TRIUMPH phase 2 showed 99.3% weight loss but the reflux profile on the highest arm was rough. Phase 2 != phase 3.

Dose escalation on retatrutide is steeper and faster than on semaglutide. Do not assume the titration patterns transfer.

Yes, exactly this, and it is the bit that took me 52 weeks to accept.
