Duromine, side effects, is it working?

Yes, for me, it took a while to build up in my system.
Please bear in mind, when you have less to lose you will have smaller losses. Many diet experts recommend that a good weekly loss should equal about 1% of your current weight. So... @ 80kg you would expect a 'good' weekly loss to be about 0.8kg. So losing 4 kilos in 4 weeks you have smashed it.
Most people find that the closer they are to their goal or ideal weight, the harder it is for them to lose. Many of the really big losses have been by people who have had a lot to lose and only in the first week when they have not been dieting previously. Many say that it is mainly water. If you have been exercising or dieting before you began with the D you may not have this big loss at the beginning.
Personally. I began about half a kilo under the morbidly obese category. In 21 weeks I have lost about 24 kilos. That is a great loss. I did lose over 4 kilos in the first week, but after that first week I average only 1 or 2 kilos with the occasional week where I stay the same or even have a slight gain.
I don't believe that D should only be for morbidly obese or obese individuals. I think anyone who is outside a healthy weight range, who has demonstrated that they have tried and struggled to do it on their own should be able to access this with their doctor's supervision. It can be abused though so regulation is necessary.
Duromine is definitely not a quick fix. I think the duromine is like any diet or program. For it to work effectively there has to still be a willingness and determination on the part of the individual. It has worked for me because I was in the right mindset. I used it to help me stay focused and on track and learn new habits. So far it has been 5 months and, although I am not on D ATM, I still have a long journey to go.
As far as how it worked for me..I was more focused, moody, and had greater will power. I found it easier to stop eating. I did forget to eat as I was more interested in other things. It is hard to explain. I still experienced hunger. I think I was less interested in food not less hungry.
