First time

Hi all, I'm starting D on the 9th of March, just so I have time to get myself ready. I'm wanting to know what the general consensus is on what you should eat and the best kind of exercise to do while on Duromine. I have about 30 kgs to lose. While the idea of not eating at all is pretty...

Hi all, I am on day 3 of taking Duromine, according to my Dr's scales I'm starting this at 84.6kg. I have my 40th in April and I don't want to be this heavy for that. I found out about 12months ago that I'm gluten intolerant which apparently has contributed to my weight issues, but as I...

Hey Guys, I'm in a similar boat, today is my day 3 on the 30mg. Gym sessions have increased, energy levels are awesome and I'm finding overall I'm loving these tablets. I'm a very active person, 26 and been training cross fit for 10month now 5 days a week high intensity for 45mins, have a...

Wow the end of day 4 is coming to a close. Day 2 & 3 was pretty much the same which is why I have decided not to blog. So far everything seems to go ok & like most of us I seem to get a burst of energy early to mid morning. I certainly don't waste any time and whilst I am feeling energised in...

Instead of writing daily I have d

After having children i've struggled to lose the baby weight and for the first time i feel like im on my way to losing it. I never thought id be overweight and raising my children on my own, for a while i felt bad about myself, so this journey is not just about change physically but also...

Day 1 dusted and done. Well what a day it was. Took my first tablet @ 6am followed with a burst of energy around 7am. Before going to work I completed all of my tasks for the day LOL! Dry mouth which is expected and loss of appetite woo hoo!! I was unable to finish all three of my meals. Water...

Well, I had the intention of writing in this blog each day - but I am very busy with work so I think once a week every Friday is probably a good time for me to write and post results. Today was another good day - no issues hunger wise, I have been very tired today however, but I think this is...

Its my First day, im a little worried as I don't have many side effects, im not buzzed like a lot of people, I only really have a dry mouth and slight headache, im not hungry tho which is good. im on the 30mg for 30 days, my start weight is 90kgs, hoping to be down to 75 or less. would love to...

No exercise today as it was pouring with rain and I didn't much feel like going out in that. lol. Jasper my dog was certainly sulking as a result. again another good day on Duromine. breakfast was 1 slice of multigrain toast with 1tsp of peanut butter. This kept me full until lunch time...

Day four started with a bang... at 4.30am I was wide awake half an hour before I would usually get up. Anyway, got up as wasn't tired at that point either and started my morning's routine. I seem to quite like my yoghurt and musli for breakfast each morning as I keep having it. I think it is a...

Day three started off nice and early today just before 7am. Took my duromine immediately with a bottle of chilled water. Again no hunger, no side effects. All nicely going to plan so far. As for what I ate: As follows: - breakfast- 125g yoghurt and 1/2 musli -lunch- slice of cheese (really...

Another day complete on Duromine. Today my food menu was as follows: - breakfast - one pita bread with a 20g slice of edam cheese. - lunch - 1/2 a cup of musli 125g yoghurt - Dinner - Small vegetarian Kebab with felafel, lots of veges and the dressing was yoghurt and garlic. I didn't...

Well, what a start to the day. I managed to get up at 5am and took my tablet immediately with two glasses of water. I was pretty hungry when I woke up this morning so wasn't too sure if it would curb it much. To my surprise approximately half an hour later I could feel my hunger was no where...

This evening is my last night as a non healthy eating, non exercising rather large person. Tomorrow I will take my first Duromine 15mg tablet as prescribed by my doctor. I am a short 156cm tall and currently weigh 103kgs as per the doctor's scales this morning... Eeeek. I haven't always been...

Morning, Well it is day 3, minimal side effects, taking it at 5 each morning then off to the gym, it’s just the unquenching thirst……. & the trips to the bathroom, stop counting how many times I go there.:D Then the energy boosts, now that’s nice especially in the gym.;) At lunch I can eat a...

Had a good day yesterday. Finding the whole concept of not wanting to eat, after the amount of food I used to consume, quite amusing. Now to start planning the exercise regime I want to follow.

WOW - I was a bit worried about the side effects of Duromine but after the first day (yep I know it only the first day) the only side effects I have had was an anxious feeling for the morning - other than that it all seems good. It didn't take me long to realise yesterday that eating is...

Each new year I have made resolutions to "eat healthy", "lose weight", "spend time with the family" and each year they seem to go okay for a short time but I never quite see the end. What am I doing wrong? How do I make these eventual stumbling blocks into stepping stones? The answer came for...

As my first blog entry let me tell you a bit about myself. I am a father of 8 children, 6 by birth and 2 by adoption. I have been married to my sweetheart for 20 years this coming March (2014). I love my family so very much, they are my life. When I was married I weighed about 75kgs and...
