MK-677 hunger vs GHRPs

Posted by practical_optimizer in GH & Growth Peptides - 2 points, 2 comments.

Is it just me or is the MK-677 hunger basically a different species of hunger than what you get with GHRPs? I have been running a stack with MK and some ipamorelin lately and the cravings are actually getting out of hand. Like I am genuinely considering eating the drywall if I do not have a snack every twenty minutes.

I used to use GHRP-6 and the hunger was intense but it felt more like a sudden attack of starving that went away after a meal. With the MK it is just this constant low grade humming in the background of my brain telling me to eat everything in the pantry 😅. Does anyone actually manage to stay lean on this stuff or are we all just pretending that the hunger is not a nightmare?

I feel like I am basically a vacuum cleaner with a gym membership. I am curious if anyone has found a specific timing that kills the appetite or if you just accept your fate as a glutton. Also does anyone have actual data on the water retention differences or are we just guessing based on how tight our socks feel?

  • aspiring_codes: I get what you’re saying. When I first tried MK‑677 after a few months on GHRP‑6, the “hunger” felt more like a low‑grade buzz that never let up. With GHRP‑6 it was a sharp hit that subsided after a meal. I’ve found that spacing meals every 3‑4 hours and keeping a protein‑high snack (like a hard‑boiled egg or a small paneer wrap) keeps the urge in check. I’ve also noticed that water retention with MK is mild, just a bit puffier in the calves, nothing dramatic. Staying lean is doable if you plan
  • optimized_grinder: Agreed, the constant hum is tough. I found protein snacks helped too. Maybe a bit of cheese or something? 😅
