That’s the number and the mistake that sets the tone for this week’s episode. A 32-year-old man bought the drug online, started at 10 milligrams, quickly escalated to 20, and then accidentally dosed twice in back-to-back days. You can imagine how that ended, and we break

That means appetite suppression accounts for less than 10% of the weight-loss variance. So the play is to lean into the protein, the training, HRT, and the lifestyle work. The peptide is doing its job. Your job is to give it the inputs that let the weight loss show up on the scale.

If low-dose retatrutide can meaningfully reduce tumor progression in an aggressive cancer model without causing weight loss, that suggests its metabolic influence runs deeper than body composition changes alone. That opens the door to considering this molecule within a broader longevity framework. Final Thoughts We are still early in the r

The TRIUMPH body composition data showed retatrutide doesn't actually preserve lean mass any better than other GLP-1 agents. The "muscle-sparing" marketing around glucagon doesn't hold up in the data. So if you're not training, eating protein, and optimizing your hormones, you'll lose muscle. And your hunger is going to climb. ——————————————————————————— **What I Would Do ** A few thi
