I have finally decided that enough is enough! It is time to do something about my weight and work towards a healthier and energetic me.
So I went and got a script of Duromine off my doctor, and had my first dose (30mg) today. I am excited and very committed in making sure that while I am able to take the Duromine, that I use it smartly and try to train myself into; eating less, correcting my portion sizes, making sure I eat breakfast and actually EXERCISING!
I have used Duromine before back in 2011, and I do remember losing 7kg in the first two weeks, but I didn't actually believed it and thought that the doctors scales were incorrect (haha). For some stupid reason that I can't recall I stopped using it, probably my 18 year old self not wanting to remember to take the tablet. So I have a good idea of how it will affect me and what kind of symptoms to expect.
I woke up today and had my first dose at around 8am, I'm hoping that this will still allow for me to get to sleep at a decent hour tonight. After an hour I felt pretty energised and went to my local pool and excised for an hour, then came home and ate breakfast. Im not really a big breakfast person but am trying to mend my ways, and work on having it each day.
I made myself eat something for lunch, because I know that starving myself isn't going to help in the long run. I was pleased when after eating one multigrain chicken salad roll, that I was actually really full and didn't crave anymore food (before I could have ate 3). Sometimes I feel that I only eat because it is something to do, again this is something I plan on working on over the next 6 months.
So far today has been good and I am tracking my food and exercise in a calorie counter app, which I find helps me quite a lot. I didn't really eat that much at dinner (just a salad and a small piece of steak), this is pretty small compared to my usual
I do find though I have a little bit of a headache, so I'm thinking that may be because my body isn't use to having such little food.
So I am hoping that writing about my experience and my progress will keep me in check, as well as motivated to continue on this journey. I do have a lot to lose, but I now feel I am ready, willing and in the right mindset to do this, and hopefully with the Duromine I will have more energy to do so.
I shall be back in a week to check in
