What’s the optimal diet on Reta?

[iblamehomelander]

What’s the optimal diet on Reta? I’m looking for something that keeps hormones and energy stable while losing as much fat as possible — ideally a plan that prevents bingeing or metabolic crashes.

What nutrients and macros are essential to maintain strength, focus, and overall well-being during fat loss?

wtv is already optimal before reta, mainly all it does is kill your hunger

just eat clean and I personally eat sweet potatoes since they have good micros

Doesnt matter, you will feel like fucking low-energized dogshit anyways. Keep high protein ideally PSFM with constant 1200-1800 calorie deficit.

There is no point of doing smaller deficit, because either way you feel like shit, so would you rather feel like shit 2 weeks or month and a half?

just eat healthy and no fast food, get at least 8 hours of sleep or more and drink alot of water

If you’re going to feel like shit either way isn’t it better to do a more extreme cut

1200-1800 calories deficit is peak extreme cut.

Yeah, that’s why I’m trying to figure out if pinning 1 mg a week while eating around 1,400 calories a day for 4 to 6 weeks and focusing mostly on proteins and fats is actually more effective since I’d be in ketosis, or if cutting carbs like that will crash my hormones and energy

reta's appetite suppression mechanism reduces overall calorie intake but doesn't inherently affect macronutrient needs. To maintain strength and focus while losing fat, a balanced diet with sufficient protein (around 1.6-2g/kg bodyweight) is essential for muscle preservation and satiety. Complex carbohydrates from whole grains, fruits, and vegetables provide energy and fiber, while healthy fats contribute to hormone production and overall well-being. Aiming for a calorie deficit of around 300-500 calories per day should promote fat loss while minimizing metabolic crashes and hunger pangs when combined with Reta's appetite-suppressing effects.
