Been on 7/8 months, question?

I’ve been on reta for 7/8 months now but I feel more hungry?

I’ve gone down from 180lbs to 119, but I feel like I need to eat more often now, even when I was at my highest weight of 260lbs I ate once a day or not at all, worked 10hr shifts 5-6 days a week and I’d be fine, I managed to get down to 145, went back up to 180lbs due to work-related factors, got down to 165lb, then I started reta and I was losing a lot of weight, working 10 hours minimum 6-7 days a week ( some days 20hrs straight) I recently quit my job for reasons that make me angry ngl and while I wasn’t losing 3-4lbs a week anymore anyway, I’ve stayed at 119lbs the last three weeks and I feel hungry to say the least, not starving but just hungry when I usually never did or if I did, I could easily ignore it ( until I started seeing myself in third person ofc ) I haven’t gained weight from eating, but still, I don’t like this development.

I’m currently on 3mg, I’ve been on it for 5-6 weeks now since I lose track of time occasionally, would increasing to 4-5mg make a difference? Usually I have the strong effects the first day up until Wednesday/Thursday, when I start snacking more and actually eating more often, but back then I wouldn’t feel the need to eat until Sunday at least, I was also wondering, since I’m buying 15mg and I’m only using 3mg, would the peptide have degraded in quality by the time I get to finishing it? Could that be the reason I’m experiencing more hunger?
