When I went to the doctors the other day, the nurse suggested that if I was finding weight loss hard going, she could perscribe a drug for me to take.
I’m not quite sure what to thinkabout this. My initial thought is that my body could probably do without having drugs pumped into it. I should be able to do this weight loss thing on my own… shouldn’t I?*
And then I thought, it might be nice to have that helping hand.
I think the clincher is going to be any side effects. Explosive orange poo isn’t something I’m keen to sign up to, thanks.
* on that note, this month’s pictures are up on the website tonight – promise

I’ve thought about trying a similar drug too but have been hesitant. I really have no good reason other than I’m not sure I want to pay for it.

A good enough reason (although the orange poo was the one that sold me against it – if that even makes sense?!)

Just seeing this now.
“fatty smelly stools, urgency to get to the toilet, oily spotting on your underclothes, and excess wind”
Really? Go you with all the exercise and smaller portion intake. Yikes.
And just remember – the longer it takes the come off, the less likely it is to come back. As in, those who binge diet and lose 8 pounds in 2 weeks, will probably put 10 on the minute they stop dieting. The body doesn’t like to be shocked, and will store extra in reserves after the shock is over.
Slowly does it
