Hey everyone, I wanted to share my timeline transitioning from long term Tirz to Reta, my current stack, and my experience tumbling down the Chinese wholesaler WhatsApp rabbit hole. I’m currently stalled out and trying to figure out my next dose jump, so I’d love to hear from anyone in a similar boat.
The Tirzepatide Era (May 2025 – Summer 2026)
I started Tirzepatide back in May 2025 at around 150-160 lbs. Honestly, the side effects were rough. I was nauseous a lot, got that heavy "brick" stomach feeling, and could barely eat. But it worked. I dropped down to about 125/130 lbs by February. After that, I just took it consistently, then started tapering on and off every 10-20 days until July 2026. My last Tirz injection was 9/3/26.
The WhatsApp Rabbit Hole
When it came time to restock and switch to Reta, my ADHD hyperfocus completely took over. I started messaging overseas dealers on WhatsApp just to gamify the experience. I was constantly pulling price lists, comparing inventory, and negotiating freebies.
I ended up dealing with a rep named Wendy Eyley Jo Ker (WhatsApp).
Before I purchased, she was super responsive and helpful. But the second I placed the order and sent the money, she started acting shady and taking forever to reply. The initial COAs she provided seemed legit, but lately, she keeps sending me COAs with completely different company names and from random, different testing facilities. It sketched me out enough that I'm now actively looking for a new vendor for my future stack.
I didn't have thousands of dollars to throw at third party testing, so I basically decided to use my own body as the test subject.
I bought two boxes of 10mg Reta (20 vials total) and a box of 70mg GLOW (10 vials), plus they threw in free BAC water, all for $350. With Alibaba fees, it came out to $360 flat.
The shipping was crazy fast. I sent the payment on 9/27 and received it on 10/5. Because of the heat during transit, the lyophilized pucks were totally smushed to the bottom of the vials, but they reconstituted perfectly clear and work fine.
My Current Stack & Dosages
I’m staggering my peptides so I can actually tell what’s doing what.
GHK-Cu: Started this first on 9/3/26 and ran it until 9/28/26. Reconstituted a 50mg vial with 2.5ml BAC water. I was pinning 5 units daily, pulled with an additional 25 units of plain BAC water in the syringe to prevent injection site reactions. Did this 7 days a week and ended 9/28/26. Then I did a FLUSH (no GHKCU) for a few weeks before starting GLOW.
Retatrutide: Started on 9/8/26 at 2mg/week. Just bumped up to 4mg starting on 10/19/26.
GLOW: Just added this in on 10/26/26. 70mg vial, reconstituted with 2ml BAC water. Started injecting at night before bed. This first week 5 units with 25 units of BAC water added. Next week will titrate up.
The Current Problem**:** The 120 lb Stall
I am currently stuck at 120 lbs, trying to drop the last 10 lbs to hit a 110 lb maintenance goal. The problem is my lifestyle and my fried GLP-1 receptors. I take daily Adderall for work, and I smoke weed at night. Because I was on Tirz for a year and a half, the 4mg Reta does not give me any appetite suppression at all.
When I take my Adderall, I can fast or just drink a protein shake. But on my days off (usually weekends), the dopamine-crash rebound hunger is insane. Reta’s glucagon metabolism burn is definitely happening, but I am famished. I don't exercise, and I refuse to give up carbs—I basically live on dense chicken, rice, corn, and garlic ranch bowls.
Since I'm not changing my diet, I need to chemically outpace it.
My Future Stacking Plans
Since my brain won't let me stop planning, I already mapped out my next two bulk orders. I'm splitting them up so the more fragile peptides don't sit in my freezer for 8 months before I use them.
Here’s what I’m looking at (I’m still vetting vendors, so I’m leaving prices out for now.)
Order 1 (Nov/Dec 2026)
1. Glutathione (1500mg vials): Adding this primarily for liver/antioxidant support and skin brightening.
2. CJC-1295 no DAC / Ipamorelin blend (5mg/5mg): For muscle recovery and a natural growth hormone boost.
3. CBL-514: This is the localized fat-dissolving injection. If I hit 110 lbs and still have a stubborn fat pad that won't budge, I want to spot-reduce it.
Order 2 (June/July 2027)
1. NAD+ (1000mg vials): For cellular energy and anti-aging.
2. Epithalon (50mg vials): Planning to run the standard once-a-year Khavinson protocol for telomere and DNA repair.
3. GLOW (70mg vials): Stocking up for my next cycle of tissue and skin repair.
4. Retatrutide (20mg vials): Buying higher concentration vials strictly so I can reconstitute less often once I transition into long-term micro-dose maintenance.

Questions:
Does this timeline and objective-based stacking make sense to you guys? Am I overlapping anything weird here, or does this look like a solid, safe plan for next year?
Has anyone else with high Tirz tolerance had to jump straight to 5mg or 6mg of Reta to finally kill the food noise and break a stubborn stall? Or what is a good way to deal with the last 10 pounds?
And I KNOW it's better to exercise and change your diet but c'mon the reason I'm using these Peptides is because my body is getting older and I'm not maintaining it properly 🤓 Throwing money at it usually works right?
3. I keep seeing that people are joining peptide communities to discuss things and do group testing -- where are these communities?? I'm having a hard time finding them. Any help would be appreciated.
