   Wow. I was prescribed that several years ago when I was about 16 years old. It seems that I was at 1000mg. I actually didn’t experience much weight loss directly from taking it. Of course, I was already exercising 3-4 hours per day and watching my diet (now that I know better, I was actually eating too little considering my exercise). Interestingly, I am actually far heavier now than I ever was back then since I was really sick with autoimmune problems for almost two years. However, I don’t have problems with my blood sugar anymore. I think I must have simply outgrown it.

   Anyhow, although some people definitely experience weight loss with this and other prescription drugs, I think it is important that you consider lifestyle choices that may affect your health. Depending on your situation, you may have developed insulin resistance due to being overweight, having poor nutrition, or being inactive. If these sorts of things resulted in your illness, you need to consider changing them.

   After all, the number on the scale isn’t directly related to good health. You need to consider exercise (strength, cardio, and flexibility) and nutrition (including carb/protein/fat, vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and phytochemicals). It’s a lot to think about, I know, but that is what will let you live a healthy life. I am learning more about it every day, and am trying to get myself healthy again after having a long period of illness. In fact, I’ve started a blog to keep me accountable at http://www.hotloss.com . Feel free to stop by!
