Hey everyone,
I'm Jess, I'm 21 and I'm on duromine 30mg.
Start Date: 5th Jan 2015
Start Weight: 129.5 Kgs
Lowest So Far: 101.7 Kgs
Started DUROMINE: 30th November 2015
Start Weight For Duromine: 116.7 Kgs
So I started way back in January doing the whole new year new me thing. Only I was sick of myself and it was like a sudden realisation that I don't like looking in the mirror. I didn't like going shopping, or even going out. In the first few weeks I did really well and lost something like 10 Kgs so I was very proud. I did well to keep it up until about April. Between April and November I often lost confidence in myself and would eat too much or eat bad food. At this point though I was so used to eating healthy that most of what I had previously been eating before I started at all was gone. I would eat fast food like crazy and not much else, but I don't do that anymore and for that I am happy. In November I tried Light and Easy my first week went pretty well but the second week didn't so once again I lost faith in myself. I decided that this time I wasn't going to try and fail or even do it by myself. So I went to my doctor who was really impressed with where I was at so far. She was happy to help and gave me the 30mg Duromine. I do feel a lot of the side affects, I seem to get especially bad dry mouth when driving home from work
. However I can live with the dry mouth and the headaches because so far I've lost 4.5 Kgs. YAY! Im going to try and post maybe once every weekend. Please let me know if there are any experiences you would like to share, any tips while I'm on it. Especially PLEASE share any recipes that you may have.
I'll post soon - Jess
