  2. Hi all , I came back from my vacation & put on like a ton ! I just want to get rid of what I gain. My gf has some left overs pills from her visit to DR Keith. She gave me 5 duromine.
    Question: should I just take these 5 pills (can it rid me of this new excess weight) OR should I just visit Dr Keith to get my own 1 month supply....lol...?

    1. I suggest you just take the 5 pills first, they are really effective. You might be able to lose all the excess weight with that. It'll save you a trip to the doc!

  5. Hi what do you guys think of -just eating fruits- for a day or 2 to enhance the slimming process?

    ReplyDelete
  6. I think eating some fruits is good.
    But eating ONLY fruits is something else. You need to look out for fruits that are loaded with sweetness- most fruits are sweet ,so that's bad right?
    Also many fruits are quite acidic (pineapple, oranges )you might want to take less of that.... could lead to gastric, maybe.

  7. I agree to 'being careful 'when it comes to fruits. My gf eats nothing but fruits, still not losing weight. When I'm on duromine, I cut out all fruits, stick to veg (no sugar in veg, but lots of fibre). Now after 2 months I lost lots of weight....lol...

  9. Ladies, anyone take on alternate days? Will it still be effective? I'm thinking of doing that- have to get up quite early everyday, so hoping that will reduce the insomnia side effect.

  10. Hi Eva, like to check with you any tips on resisting the urge to indulge again after my course of meds? I'm into my 1st week since I saw Dr Keith, lost a few kgs already, feeling fab ! So don't want to waste all my efforts:)
    Thanks!

    1. Hi Daphne, first of all congrats on the result !
      One thing I did which is effective is, I stop buying & storing snacks at home. That in turn will make snacking at home impossible even when you have the urge to munch, while watching tv :)
      Also beware of friends who loves to go for coffee & treats etc..... warn them when you go out with them(tell them not to tempt you....lol...). Usually friends are always obliging & very supportive :)

  11. Ladies, off topic a little, may I ask is radish detoxifying ? My friends said radish soup is for that. Just want to incorporate that into my diet regime.

    1. Yes it is.
      E.g. When you take tempura, they always put a little at the side to be eaten with - that's to reduce the heaty effect of the fried prawn.

  12. Hi all, when do most of you stop medication? After 1/2 months or longer?

    1. Hi candy, it depends on the individual. E.g. how much you have to lose, your original weight etc.... For the normal people, 1 to 2 months will do just fine :))

    2. Hi No ... but I did lose 1.5 kg within 3 days , so pretty satisfied :)
      It's almost 2 weeks now, I've lost 4.5 kg.
      First 4 days I hardly eat anything. After that I could regulate my food very well as the pills help suppress my "greediness" ...haha...

  14. Stupid question- can take pills with coffee? I just did & wonder will it make it less effective ? haha...

  15. Hi I still have some remaining meds from last year. My friend wanted it. You think it's still effective? It was for me last yr. After only 2 weeks I lost a lot of weight...haha...

    1. If I'm not wrong meds can keep for a couple of years, but they do have an expiry date.- oh... & where did you keep it? If you keep it in the fridge, it should be fine :)

    1. Just be mindful of your diet from now onwards.
      If you can keep to a low carb & high protein diet, couple with exercises- I'm quite sure you can stay slim. No or little snacks & cut down on soft drinks & other sweet beverages if possible.

  17. Hello, under what situation will he prescribe the pills for weight loss? Assuming i would like to lose around just 4 - 5 kg. Recently put on some weight (probably due to middle age syndrome) and I cannot fit into my jeans anymore!!! need a whole new wardrobe. Help...

    1. Just go there & tell doc you want to lose weight that's all. He's very friendly :)) For 4-5kg 1 month is enough I think !!!
      Good Luck !

  18. Thank you May. I just went. But he told me might be difficult for me to lose 4 to 5 kgs especially since i am already approaching 40 and with 2 kids. Nonethless, he gave me 1 month supply to try out. Looking forward to fitting into my old jeans. I just gained this weight over the past few months and really hope i can fit into my clothes. :)

    1. Hi, Just cut back on all the sweet food. My colleague is even older than you. Due to some health issues, she needs to cut down all sugar. She even take coffee with no sugar, & very little rice. After only 2 months, her weight really went down. You can do the same to 'compliment ' with your pills. I am sure it'll work:))

    2. Hi, how is your progress so far? As I am also i the mid 40s & the result after taking the pills for 2 weeks isnt that good, wonder how is yours. Hope you can share your experience ....

    3. I am 41, just started on this pill a week ago.
      Lost 2kg already.
      What I did was, I give up all the "convenient" ways of eating, like eating at food courts, instant noodles, soft drinks & snacks.

      I stick to a strict diet of salad, & ate more vegetables than I've ever eaten in my life ....lol..., also take lean meat & cut down rice to bare minimum- no bread!
      From my research, the pills will work better if you can compliment it with a good diet. It's healthier & you get to lose more weight:)
      And I have to add, the fat burner really helps! I finally could poo regularly, so happy ...haha..
      Hope this helps.

    1. I don't think it's much of a concern.
      Could just be the extra water you drink.
      I think we cant expect to lose some weight 'everyday,' dont think the body works that way.
      What I did was to compare my initial weight & my weight 1 month later, after I stop the meds. And I indeed lost about 3.5 kg total.
      In between that 1 month, I didn't weigh myself ( as advice from a friend ...lol..)
