Slim Weight Loss — 12-Week Cycle Dosing Guide
Updated April 28, 2026
Why People Choose The Slim 12-Week Cycle
The Slim 12-Week Cycle combines Retatrutide and 5-Amino-1MQ for a synergistic, dual-action approach to advanced fat loss, appetite control, and metabolic optimization.
Retatrutide activates GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon receptors, amplifying fat loss through appetite suppression, improved glucose metabolism, and enhanced energy expenditure.
5-Amino-1MQ inhibits NNMT, increasing NAD⁺ levels to switch on fat-burning genes and turn off fat-storage pathways.
Together, they provide a powerful metabolic reset—supporting efficient energy use, sustained weight management, and renewed vitality.
Key benefits include:
- Promotes significant and sustained fat loss
- Improves insulin sensitivity and blood sugar control
- Boosts cellular energy, mitochondrial function, and thermogenesis
- Reduces appetite and curbs cravings
- Supports cardiovascular and metabolic health
- Complements exercise and nutritional programs for long-term results

- Step-by-step dosing protocol
Peptide Storage
Storage for Lyophilized (Freeze-Dried) Peptides: (Powder Form)
- After arrival: Store dry/lyophilized vials in the freezer at or below -20 C for best stability unless the product label/protocol says otherwise.
- Keep vials tightly capped, dry, dark, and protected from moisture.
- Avoid repeated freezing and thawing
Storage for Reconstituted Peptides: (Mixed with BAC Water)
- Refrigerate 2 to 8 °C
- Do not freeze
- Use within 45 days unless the product label/protocol says otherwise.
- Label vials with date and concentration
Reconstitution (Mixing)
For easy calculating and to fit the full 12-week cycle:
- Retatrutide 10 mg: Add 2.0 ml BAC Water
- 5-Amino-1MQ 5 mg: Add 3.0 ml BAC Water
Gently swirl or roll after adding BAC Water—do not shake.
Injection (Dosing)
Timing:
- Inject Retatrutide once weekly on the same day/time (e.g., every Sunday).
- Inject 5-Amino-1MQ once daily, Monday to Friday (weekends off).
Frequency:
- Retatrutide → once per week
- 5-Amino-1MQ → five times per week (weekends off)
Injection Method: Subcutaneous (SQ)
Syringe: Insulin type (1 ml, 30–31G, 6–8 mm)
Dosing:
Retatrutide (10 mg vials × 3 = 30 mg total)
- Weeks 1–2: 1 mg (20 units) once weekly
- Weeks 3–8: 2 mg (40 units) once weekly
- Weeks 9–12: 4 mg (80 units) once weekly
Total used: 30 mg across 12 weeks
Tip: Administer on the same day each week for stable blood levels.
5-Amino-1MQ (5 mg vial × 2 = 10 mg total)
- Weeks 1–12: 167 mcg (10 units) daily × 5 days/week
Total used: 10 mg across 12 weeks
Tip: Inject in the morning on an empty stomach for best energy and fat-loss effects.
Cycle length: 12 weeks
- 5-Amino-1MQ: 5 days on / 2 days off
- Retatrutide: once weekly
Inject Safely
Preferred sites (Subcutaneous):
- Abdomen, at least 5 cm from navel
- Outer thigh
- Upper-outer arm
(Rotate 1–2 cm from the last site)
Quick steps:
- Clean the vial top and location of injection with an alcohol pad
- Draw dose(s) into syringe
- Pinch and lift skin at the injection site
- Inject slowly at a 45° angle just under the skin (SQ)
- Apply gentle pressure with alcohol pad for 30 seconds
- Dispose syringe in a sharps container
Notes
- Inject in the fatty part of the abdomen (at least 5 cm from navel), outer thigh, or upper-outer arm
- Rotate injection site (1–2 cm)
- Wipe skin and let alcohol dry before injection
- If you miss a dose, resume at the next scheduled time—do not double up
- Maintain hydration, movement, and good sleep
- Keep everything labeled and store safely
- Seek medical care urgently if you experience spreading redness, severe swelling, fever, pus, red streaks, or allergic signs (hives, facial swelling, trouble breathing)
- If you develop the flu, a significant infection, or any acute illness where your body’s ATP production needs to prioritize immune function, pause 5-Amino-1MQ and resume only once you have recovered.
- Do not use peptides if pregnant or breast feeding.
Possible Side Effects (Common & Mild)
- Small bruise
- Brief redness or itch at site
- Occasional nausea or fatigue
Peptide Measurement Guide
- mg: milligram; measures the total amount of peptide in a vial
- mcg: microgram; measures an injection dose (1 mg = 1,000 mcg)
- ml: milliliter; measures the volume of BAC water for reconstitution
- unit: insulin-syringe marking for dose calculation (1 ml = 100 units on a standard insulin syringe)
