Change reta to twice a week or up the dosage?

I know, its different for everyone.

But here is my story.

280lbs, never taken any peps, work out 3-4times aweek, eat like a bear. No satity(spelling?) Dont feel a satisfied feeling while eating. Full food noise, eating all the time.

So

I Started reta 5 weeks ago. Worked great.

1mg/week. No hunger feeling, no food noise, feeling full after a couple of bites(like 1/4 of what i ate earlier) almost "forcing" myself to eat my protein goals. Down 18lbs.

So i take the reta saturdays. It has worked great. Last week on friday i got the feeling of bear hunger back. But went away on saturday after the reta. Still on 1mg/week

But today. Tuesday... god damn.

I feel the hunger even more.

Ive eaten a larger breakfast today than before. Ive also had my regular proteinshake.

But the other days i didnt feel like this.

I guess this is why you have the titration.

So the question is what should i do?

Im thinking of holding off and getting used to this feeling of hunger. And on saturday, increase my dose to 2 mg/week.

Or

Take another 1mg tomorrow and change it up to 1mg twice a week.

I know people do it differently and everyone is different.

But im mostly looking for people with more experiance.

So what do you think guys? ❤️
