Getting Started

Hi everyone, I started using 40mg or duromine yesterday. I lost 7kg on my own dieting and exercising but after 6 weeks I was not seeing any further loss. My doctor suggested duromine to help with my late night cravings and binge issues as I always feel hungry. So far I haven't had any bad...

Hi everyone, I'm feeling confused using this forum. I think all your posts and personal experiences are great and helpful. THANK YOU for sharing your experiences taking Duromine :) I would like to know how I can make some friends, so we can share our experiences about Duromine. I'm now...

A week today and I'm feeling great. I have stuck to healthy eating all wk and have walked 4kms everyday. I haven't noticed any weight loss and i don't like to stand on scales so don't know how my weight is going. I'm looking forward to the week ahead as I am joining the gym on Monday and I see a...

Morning! Had a bowl of Kellog's All Bran Flakes with sliced banana and a cup of coffee for breakfast, while sipping on a 750ml water. No side-effects so far. It's actually feeling good not to feel bloated and fat all the time!:D This later ....:cool:

I drank about six bottles of 750ml of water today...keeping myself hydrated, the Duromine is making me a tinge thirsty, but luckily I love water and don't mind visiting the W.C. 100 times a day! Wasn't hungry for lunch, so I kept on with the water and had five or six small crackers with low...

Took 15mg's Duromine this morning. No side effects yet (keeping my fingers crossed). Had breakfast at 10:30 - small bowl of Kellog's All Bran Flakes with pieces of banana and one cup of coffee, milk and no sugar. Already had two 750ml's bottles of water so far. Feeling like a stuffed pig...

Dished up a small plate of pasta for supper and it was actually MORE than enough. SO my food diary for today is: sliced mangos for breakfast, one banana for lunch and a small plate of the most delicious pasta for supper (a person would think I'm an Italian, it was really good, normally the...

I've got the best Dr. in the world. She called me around 11ish this morning to ask how I was doing on the Duromine. I told her that I felt absolutely normal on 15mg (couldn't get a chance to tell her that I drank another 15mg because I thought 15mg was too weak) but she said it's ok to feel...

Visited the clinic to get myself weighed properly and I am weighing 87.3kg's instead of 89.9kg's ;). So, I must lose 22,3kg's to reach my ideal weight of 65kg's :o. I took 15mg's Duromine this morning, but it didn't work - actually felt like I do every morning: hungry! :rolleyes: So I...

Looking forward to losing 24.9kg's :o. I'm starting with 15mg's of Duromine tomorrow morning as per Dr's orders. Currently weighing 89.9kg's. First time on Duromine. This is just our secret ok! :p Will keep myself updated (Doing this blog for my own personal reasons - just to make note of...

Hi everyone this is my 2nd day on Dom 30mg and must say my headaches and dry mouth have been constant but my energy level is up dramatically. I have 30kgs to loose and am on boarder line diabetes. I am mad at myself for putting my health last over my family as without me they would be lost. This...

Hi, I am new I am 33 and i will be turning 34 in about 2 months. I have not checked what my exact weight is but judging from the fact that XL and 16 is TOO SMALL - i would say i need duromine. It has taken 9 years for this weight to creep on. I managed to loose all of it after my...

Went to see my Dr today and hopped on the scales for the first time in a very long time knowing that I was going to have to use all my strength not to cry! 92kg and approximately 22kg over weight - I guess I have a long road ahead of me. It has taken 5 years for 28kg to 'creep' on... I am...

So I just came back from my GP and explained what I was doing. The doctor seems to think that Duro is specifically perscribed so that you can lose weight quickly and so to only be taking it 1-2 week wont be effective. However, I still insisted that I want to try it out safely and with NO...

Just started on Duromine 30 yesterday. After reading many many negative/side effects that it has on many different body shapes, I decided to incorporate Duro in miniscule amounts, though my doctor recommended to take it daily. I heard some people taking it every 2 day, however I decided to...

Day 2 Last night I went to bed feeling awake, but without me realising I fell asleep. Woke up a few times but dozed off to sleep. I woke up at 4 feeling wide awake, so did some relaxing yoga for 30mins and had cereal breakfast and went back to bed. I slept for 2 hours (this was the...

Hi Everyone It was so wonderful to read your individual journeys last night, as I found that they helped me with my decision to take Duromine - starting this morning. I'm currently 116 kilo's so have a long, long way ahead of me, but am hoping to share in the success that so many of you have...
