Tracking my retatrutide titration – weight, appetite and HRV notes so far

Posted by amber464 in Weight Loss & Metabolic - 2 points, 0 comments.

5 mg once weekly three weeks ago because I wanted to see how the triple agonist affected my appetite and energy expenditure. As a lab tech I’m used to logging numbers so I’ve been weighing myself every morning, tracking my Oura HRV and noting any GI feelings. The first week I felt a bit queasy after the injection but it passed by day two.

My appetite dropped noticeably – I’m eating smaller portions without forcing it and I haven’t had the usual afternoon cravings. 5 lbs so far, which lines up with the early loss range mentioned in the reference. HRV has crept up a couple of points each night, though I know that could just be from better sleep or less late‑night snacking.

I’m planning to go to 1 mg next week and keep logging. I’ll get a basic metabolic panel before the next dose increase just to be safe. Would love to hear if anyone else is seeing similar HRV shifts while titrating. Talk to your doc before making any changes.
