    Duromine Day 1

    So if anyone was wondering what happened...I went off duromine for a month while I was on holidays because I didnt have access to a gym and I went away so I knew I wouldnt be exercising to my potential. I ate ok, but I still put back on 3kg :( But I'm back on duromine tomorrow, and back to the...

    Duromine Day 1

    Obviously a spambot so Im going to ignore the above replies... Anyways...Update. I have been off Duromine for a week or so because I had my period, and from what I've read, people said it didnt work very well when you had your period. I wasnt doing any exercise either, so it felt like a bit of...

    Duromine Day 1

    I'm on 15mg too. The doctor didn't want to give me more because I was already going to the gym at least twice a week. Maybe you should talk to your doc, and see if he/she will bump you up. But he/she might tell you to do the 15mg course, and if nothing has changed, then will bump you up to 30mg.

    Duromine Day 1

    I've just finished day 5 and I no longer have insomnia, but I still have the dry mouth thing. I haven't been to the gym in two days, but I've still lost a bit of weight (literally, a minuscule amount). I think if I was working out, I would have lost more. So my advice, exercise if you want to...

    Duromine Day 1

    Did your doctor advise you to exercise as well? If so, thats your best bet of seeing results quicker. I delved into the gym with lots of cardio workouts and I've seen quick results which just motivates me more. Good luck, I hope your IVF works out for you!

    Not Losing Weight on Duromine

    Working must make it difficult because you are probably tired at the end of the day to do a hard workout. I'm lucky in that respect, with my uni timetable I can go to the gym in the morning or the arvo. I need to lose 15-18kg, so we are kinda in the same boat! Do the measuring thing. I think I...

    Not Losing Weight on Duromine

    My brother is a a bit of a gym junkie, and he said the same thing to me. Do mainly cardio to lose weight, and then work on building muscle by doing weights. I haven't bothered to do sit ups/push ups while on duromine, but I will eventually do them. I do some weights at the gym to work on my...

    Duromine Day 1

    Hi, thanks :) I think the reason I managed to loose lots is because I was already in the mindset and routine of exercising. I'm assuming the weight loss will slow down once my body gets use to the drug. I'm taking a break from the gym today, to get uni work done. But I'll be back tomorrow...
