Retatrutide and KLOW guidelines
Here is an outline of the dosages for the Reta and KLOW. A summary is we want to start on 1mg per week of the retatrutide and 1 mg of the KLOW daily. We can adjust the dosages individually based on your bodys response.

@Debbie Webb going good thanks, 3rd dose at 1.5 (twice a week) & finally seeing scales move again for first time in nearly 3 wks. (I know we’re supposed to put away scales lol) Measurements showing change too. Interestingly I increased carbs for a few days, not sure if this had something to do with it. Sleep has improved too 👏👏 Pretty sure I’ll be staying with this dose going forward.

@Debbie Webb thank you & good luck 🤞
Appreciate your own journey
A great affirmation today. I have always loved the HH community and now this group as we share our journeys. We listen to other stories and some information we take into our journey, others we share but appreciating our own journey we sometimes need a reminder. Those who are struggling with Adrenal bodies, it was a hard lesson last year when I was in a life death situation and my healing afterwards. My history to date of 5 years, my life and body living on Adrenal where I would just keep going then I would go into 10 years of healing the state my body was in the last 5 years and usually something drastic in my life to turn it around because my body doesn't signal like a normal person and my brain does not recognise pain and not taking in the suttle signs from the body. It has been hard to change my thinking I have to this, I have to do that even my recovery as I my body is a quick healer which shocked my Surgical team but they said my positive attitude was signals to them also how my body works. That did not stop me pushing myself even though I was seriously sick. At 6 months from my surgery I started this program and my affirmation has always been this is the last time I am healing my body. So that has to mean what do I need to do also for this time in my life to make it a normal routine and part of my life and enjoyment. There has been a lot of changes for the last nearly 3 months and I had to take my exercise back and start again as like normal I said I had to do this and I had to do that which again I was going in to Adrenal mode. So starting from scratch, for me was the scales went away, no have to with exercise, (the brain still was thinking this is not the way) slowly build up which this week I made Friday's my rest day and 30 to 40 mins workouts in the morning 6 days and walks with my husband at night. I also got Kitchen Scales to log my food & calories. I am not going on protein, carbs, fat % but using them more to retrain my brain what my body needs at the moment after 5 years of underactive thyroid it did my head in what I could eat and couldn't to heal it. So these scales I am using as a tool to understand my body more on this journey not to measure anything as the scales can't determine between good and bad fats, good & bad foods etc. I have Jeff's Food Lists saved in a album on my phone. I also have Body scales so got my husband to get the scales down this morning and I did not look at the scales or the reading and only got him to tell me the body fat % which I have lost 4% body fat in 4 weeks since the last time I weighed myself. Yesterday again my clothes I noticed I put something on I hadn't worn for ages to work out in including a sports bra I had not worn for a year or so, so means cm's around that area I have lost.

Fantastic work Michelle, we really are all so different, great to read about your journey.
How is everyone going?
Hi all 👋 Longtime no speak, I hope everyone is progressing well! Unfortunately I had some tech issues and dropped off for 10 days, thanks to Jeff for sorting, I’m now back on board. I’m on week six this week and have just placed my second order for Reta and Klow. Thankfully I’m having little side effects from the peptides, the occasional burning sensation in my butt cheeks when I’m in bed from the Klow is probably the only real side effect thankfully. I’m 2.5kg down which happened pretty quickly however I’ve had a small plateau, hoping there is more weight loss to come as I progress. I’m feeling good, definitely more energy and sleeping well, I now need to concentrate on managing stress and doing some nervous system work, I know this will help my weight loss journey too. I did slightly over indulge on Easter Sunday and felt like absolute rubbish the next day, swollen and stiff joints and little energy, the reasons why I eat cleanly the majority of time. Lesson learnt!! I hope you are all progressing well on your healthy journey 😊 💪

So good the hear from you all and where everyone is up to :)
Scales and weight
Really honestly get rid of your scales during the journal of healing your body. I was reading my old journals the other day when I was at another stage of healing and I had noted how the scales had not moved much but my body had lost so many inches and changed shape as different stage again in life. I put my scales away a couple weeks ago and last week when hanging up one of my work shirts I realised I had not undone the buttons to take it off and just able to slip over my head. Today my 3/4 white jeans were certainly loose looking in the legs and felt a bit loose around the stomach. I was weighed when I went into hospital and had lost 6 kgs but I guarantee if I got on the scales now I would not have lost anything or put it on and for me it will play too much on this journey. As my journal said last time it really did take 18 months to end up at a healthy weight and slim toned fit body and able still enjoy life and not be restricted in any way. I am 60 in November so my body shape will be changing again and I have not set any weight to get to as I am at a different stage in life. For example 18 years old 57 kgs 5ft 6, late 40's to 50's 65 kg and fit, slim & healthy but totally different shape. Since I have lived under specialist since 3 months old with hormone issues I have always said this is the last time of healing my body. I am doing a lot of trialling and changing things as I go on this journey to see what my body really needs at the moment. Up to 2 weeks ago up until the double colonoscopy I had got back to intermittent fasting as my body felt like that. Afterwards I tried changing my breakfast again but gone back to my smoothie last week but now my meals are a lot smaller for lunch and I have a light meal for dinner anytime before 6pm. My workouts are different Tabata or HIIT classes full body exercises and always wear my Piloxing gloves which are only .5 kg weights but I can put more definition into weight resistance in working out and wear them when doing weights as well. Before my body went down hill my favourite class with my PT was a HIIT full boxing class with including sit ups as on of the stations in the 30 mins class then I would do his pilates class after my quick walk to get the lactic acid out. Also of course on the water Dragon Boating or OC. It is something my husband and I want to get back doing leisurely when we finish our landscaping with a Kayak for him & OC for me to do days on the rivers or sea on the Sunshine Coast.

It’s definitely a journey of patience and perseverance Michelle, well done on your insight it is a great reminder to us all. I am a similar age to you turning 60 in Feb next year, healthy aging is so important and we certainly are at a different life stage now. I have diverticulitis (no symptoms for a long time thank goodness) and elevated thyroid antibodies. My starting weight is obese, so I have been worried about my health for a long time. After dad passing away last Dec and then arranging for mum (with dementia) to live in an aged care facility, I really needed to do something for me. My husband is joining me on improving his health too & he is on par with me in terms of weight loss so far, just by taking berberine and supplements. Why do men seem to do it more easily? (Sorry Jeff). I live on the Murray river in Victoria and it’s a cool 13 degrees but feels like 7.5 degrees haha. Enjoy your Sunday wherever you all are :)

So I’ve just gone 3 weeks since starting supplements and peptides. Apart from feeling good, and losing a few kg, I just checked my blood pressure for this month and the data doesn’t lie, I’m excited!

@Danielle Proctor I monitor using an Omron blood pressure monitor. You can buy them from Chemist Watehouse. Much more accurate than a watch.

@Erin Leahy yes I try and monitor every now & then to make sure all is ok. I have been using other natural things like magnesium, exercise, hibiscus tea over the last year or so to try and keep blood pressure optimal
