OFF Duromine

I really don't feel like Duromine is doing anything for me. I'm positive my Doctor will move me up to the 40mg when I go in and I'm even thinking I'll try to book in earlier because I feel like this is a waste of time. I think stopping breastfeeding is making my body put weight on and Duromine...

I have NO reason for feeling this way... no stress, or reason to be feeling demotivated to get my butt onto the gym equipment, or eat 3 x a day or at least snack... I put my gym clothes on every day, but never get to the gym equipment in the house, I find all sorts of other chores and things...

well where do I start mmmmm I have been to the GP who is very happy with my progress however is concerned with the long term use of duromine .... Risk Stroke & the Duromine being as effective because my body is to use to it :( which totally puts the wind up me... So I decide to give myself a...

Have had my ups and downs this week. Have not managed to exercise as much as I should :oops: . I have had great intentions that have not materialised. A big change happened for me this week..... My daughter has moved out (sort of) to go to university. I say sort of because she will be home...

:cool: Suffice to say that I have had most of January off. :rolleyes: Not weighing, no Duromine, still exercising, and eating sensibly but not recording or counting calories. Just having a break until school goes back and my routine kicks back in. First day of term one was yesterday so I am back...

So I wanted to give my person opinion and feedback after taking duromine. I have a lot to say so here goes. I waited 12 months befor getting the courage to get a prescription. To many people said bad things about it! The biggest one? "You put the weight straight back on plus some" well, I can't...

Do you take any supplements? If so, which ones? I have never been a pill taker (even though I work in pharmacy). I have always been of the belief that if you have a balanced diet, you should get all of your nutrients from food Since I have been off the D, my energy levels have been lower. I...

My first full week without D has been challenging. My energy levels are down a little and I have to make a conscious decision to be more active. I have found I am doing things because they have become a part of my routine, which is great, BUT my enthusiasm is not present. Food wise I have had...

I am having a two week break from the D. :eek: A few reasons: I have an endocrinologist appointment in two weeks time and I have to be 'clean' for two weeks to have blood tests to get accurate results I feel like I am used to the D. I need a break so that it is more effective when I return. I...

I have been on this journey now since the 29/06/14 with 1 month off duromine due to sickness and holidays ... I can honestly say I have really had only one major setback which was my cruise holiday were I gained 4.8kg:eek:, however I did not stress or beat myself up about the gain, I put on my...

Had a really bad food day yesterday. I have been having more and more days off the Duromine, just to see how I go, on the suggestion of my GP. Until now I have only done one day at a time. Yesterday I forgot to take the D and I also had not taken it the day before. I remembered at about 11 am. I...

Hi All, Sooooo This has been a week of Extreme HIGHS, and Extreme LOWS Decided, for no real good reason ,to go off D for a week ,to just have a break from being so energized/fog brained/ running on no sleep .... My Highs were: Exercise was excellent, had loads of energy the first 4 days, so...

Good Morning All. I never knew that getting back onto the wagon would be so difficult. One weekend of eating like a mad person had changed my mind set so badly it's actually unbelievable. But I still kept to the basics and didn't over eat. I took my last Duromine on Friday and going into...

This week I tackled two things that have been scaring me. 1. A day without Duromine 2. A day doing my own meal planning (no Lite'n'Easy) I am happy to report, I was successful with both. I have been worried about having to have some time out from D as I have only 5 weeks left and then I have to...

Not a happy camper. :mad: Doc says I have low thyroid and will have to go off the Duromine. I'm pretty sure he is wrong, but I will discuss that later. So, my blood tests indicate that I have sub-clinical hypothyroidism. i.e. Low thyroid but not so bad that it is urgent. He also said that my...
