Duramine - failed experiment.

Well. After reading some more blogs about this drug, I've decided not to continue. It's only been 3 days, so I should be ok to just stop. My body hasn't adjusted to them and I don't like the feeling. It's too close to how I felt when taking those anti-depressants.I feel like someone has my head in a vice. I have no energy and just feel lousy.

Every other person who tried them and felt lousy ended up with massive depression. I would rather be fat!

So, if you are actually reading this, stay off them. I gave it shot, but I wouldn't recommend them.

Day 2 Weight loss drugs

Half way through day 2 and feeling fine. Can't figure out what all the fuss was about. From what I can gather, it doesn't build up in the body and other than possibly developing a psychological need for it, it's not addictive.

Still got the same feelings as if I had taken nurofen plus or Panadeine. Slight headache, a bit of eye fuzzyness and dryness in the mouth. I'm also occasionally getting a feeling a little like tingling all over. Like a massive feeling of happiness. It's not distracting, a little weird, but not something I'd get used to.

Because of my ankle, I can't run like I wanted to on the machine. So, I'm going to use the bike and rowing machine. If I spend half an hour jumping between the 2, I should then at least have some exercise.

Weighed myself last night and I was at 92kg. I put this down to fluid retention.  Normally in the morning immediately after a shower, I am 90kg - which was the amount this morning.  Will not weigh myself when I get home - will now wait until the weekend.

Duramine day 1

Today is the first day of my trial of Duramine.(Metermine) I took it at 6.45 this morning and now at 8.25 all I feel is hungry. Not feeling much different otherwise.

Well... maybe a little buzzed. But no.more than of I had taken a nurofen plus. :)

It's the end of the day and other than feeling a little "burpy" like I've just taken a capsule tablet, I feel pretty normal. I'm as tired as I would normally be, my back aches as usual and my feet ache as usual.

The only thing different, is I don't have a headache. Normally at this time of the day, I'd have a headache - especially after a red bull (which I had earlier), but nothing. :D I'm pretty happy about that.  Oh, I also seem to have noticeable ringing in my ears. It's only noticable when I'm in a quiet room, but it's louder than usual. This seems to be in the list of side effects.
