wow, there are so many posts I could reply to, I've chosen this one since you state "consume nothing but water" and are focused on weight loss in a defined period of time.
Firstly, you need to eat. Irrespective of how little appetite you have, you need to eat. Take the lack of appetite and not being "starving" coming up to lunch or dinner to enable yourself to make good choices about what to eat. IE:
Me before: Left work late, 'starving', hanging out for dinner. Oporto's is on the way home, that is better than Macca's / HJ's, I'll just grab something here as "I'm so hungry".
Me now: Left work late, not all that hungry, make it home, Cook up some chicken + vege's, or a small serving of a random risotto dish I usually make.
Once you start eating properly you will have the energy to exercise. The motivation you need to find also. You had the motivation to go to the doctors to get Duromine. Now you need the motivation for the hard part - exercising. But the good news is you can start off small. Simply walking each day might be a big enough change initially depending on your previous level of exercise. Otherwise lots of ways to get incidental exercise in: cleaning is a good one - washing the car or cleaning the house burns surprisingly good amount of calories compared to sitting on the couch.
There is no answer to:
"I'm taking Duromine and not changing anything else and not eating, so how much weight will i lose?"
Taking Duromine is the jump start you need to make some changes in your life, either eating habits or exercise habits.
The positives are that you're drinking more water, something a large proportion of the population (especially overweight people) need to do and that you're looking up some exercise routines and are keen to get stuck in. That is the motivation you need and it is good to see. Good luck and cant wait to see how you go.
Also, don't worry about not seeing changes to your body, they will come in time [/QUOTE thank you so much, a real big help and as much as I would love to eat again, every time I do I get very sick. As in bad cramps, urge to vomit and massive headache. I feel it weighs me down and it's just such an ugly feeling. But I just wanted to know if I would gain any sickness or disorder from not eating ??
