Does anyone else here prefer Tirze over Reta?

So it's been about 3 months on Reta and overall I find the experience on Tirze to be more pleasent for a number of reasons:

  1. No food noise at all on Tirze. Moreso, it's not food noise, but more cravings. I never used to crave any particular food, but on Reta the cravings are out of this world.
  2. Reta causing INSANE sugar cravings, this is unusual for me because I never have had sugar cravings ever in my life. For example, I never drank soft drink but now I'm having a can of coke 2-3 times a week.
  3. HR is high on Reta, persistently sitting at around 90-95 BPM resting.
  4. No weight loss on Reta. Lost 31kg on Tirze in 6 months, lost 0kg on Reta, but to be fair, I have recomped as my bodyfat has gone down from 20% to around 16%.

Are there others out there that tried Reta, gave it a good go but decided to just go back to Tirze? If so, how did you do the transition?
