If you think you can handle the pills then follow the docs orders, but don't let the pills discourage you to the point of giving up. If you can't handle the pills, be up front with the doc and tell him no. Ultimately it's your body and not the doctors. Find a plan that will work for both of you. There are other options.
I'm routing for ya! |

| knightnfrees Sat 2/17/2007 1:54a | Well, my weigh-in for week 2 is down 3/4 of a pound. Not much, but at least it's something. Brings my two week loss total to 4.25 lbs. I am on my way. :) |

| Kennesaw Tom Sat 2/17/2007 4:54a | Dave I would have to say that the most significant thing about my loosing weight this time is that I am dieting for the first time and loosing weight that way. In the past I have always just worked out and lost weight. This is the first time I have not been working out while looseing weight. I am learning to eat less and its working for me. I'm so grateful with my progress.
Great job everyone. Good luck with the weigh in knightnfrees. |

| amazedncal2 Sat 2/17/2007 8:17a | Hi all :) Sounds like everyone is hanging in there. I'm appreciating that we are all happy and encouraged with 1/2-1 lb. losses or no gains :) Like they always say, we didn't put the weight on in a month :)
Dave, I'd also personally wait on getting those pills, especially if you've already had "side effects" Sounds like they take fat and move it through like olestra? I had a similar side effect with some cholesterol meds and it really alters your day doesn't it?
It would be different if you were at home or in a private office but with your job, there has to be another way. I'd imagine that cutting out the fat would do the same thing in the long run. As always just my opinion :)
Have a good day everyone :)

| smedley Sat 2/17/2007 9:00a | Hey guys, still doing well here so far.. DH saw me this afternoon and told me I look thinner, and I've only been at it since Monday, good news! That being said I always drop a lot in the initial couple of weeks, I've dropped 2lb since Thursday. Got another workout planned for tonight after my night off last night. Keep up the good work all :) |

| smedley Sun 2/18/2007 9:16p | I am strong, one of the guys is leaving from our office tonight, and there have been all kinds of goodies out for eating, chocolate cake, cream cakes, pies and pastries, and I haven't eaten any of them. I have eaten fruit, drunk water and been to the gym instead...
I feel so virtuous lol!! |
