Retatrutide is incredible in a mind altering way. I know 4 people on it, including myself. And all just love the way it makes you feel. You just don’t want to eat as much and you want to eat healthier. As far as I can tell, that is it. While I’m nervous there could be long term side effects, I think the health benefits of being at a healthy weight mean that for probably 50% of the developed world they would benefit from it.
Looking forward to more formal studies though!

I keep track of GLP1s and write a lot about them (looking for negative side effects, research results, etc) and it is amazing how potent retatrutide is. It’s not simply a matter of “more agonists, more better” but it looks like Eli Lilly has really cracked it.
There is a large enthusiast community of the body building variety (who are usually first) who are already performing a bit of an unscheduled human trial and I have to say the results are amazing. We have both injectable retatrutide and pill form retatrutide to look forward to (pill form is unannounced but I have a hunch!).

These GLP-1 drugs seem to do more than what the article describes. The spontaneous cessation or serious reduction of addictions (chemical, behavioral) and otherwise compulsive behaviors when taking GLP-1s is widely discussed and described.
Author spent a ton of time writing this up "for fun"...but glad people are still doing this and old school blogs. The effort required seems substantial...
Not sure about the AI style transfer images... sure it's a valid way to get the illustrations you want but I don't have to like it...

I hope it is more effective that Tirzepatide of which I am a rare nonresponder and have only gained weight.
