Reading this thread on Retatrutide resting hits close to home. Dad of 2 checking in — I started at 273 lbs and felt like I would tried everything.
9 months on tirz and I am a different person. Not just the 48 lbs lost — my energy, my mood, my relationship with food. All transformed.
If you are on the fence about Retatrutide resting — take the leap. It was the best health decision I have ever made. ❤️

As a healthcare provider, I want to add some clinical context to this discussion on Retatrutide resting energy expenditure .
Building on what Dr.BariatricHTX said — the evidence base here is well-established. The key publications to reference are from the FLOW program[1].
Key clinical points:
- Efficacy is dose-dependent and typically requires 4-5 weeks to reach steady state
- Side effect profile is predictable and usually manageable with standard protocols
- Monitoring should include baseline labs and follow-up at 3-month intervals
- Patient education significantly improves outcomes and adherence
Standard disclaimer: this is educational, not individualized medical advice.
