    Duromine Day 2

    Thanks Tash. I'm now in my 4th week. I will weigh myself this weekend. I am already fitting into clothes that I wore several years ago. I really appreciate not craving junk food. These days I snack on fruit. My initial energy burst has gone. But it does seem easier to mow the lawn now. I'm...
