Fastin

[Mandy23]

I am a newbie here and was just wondering if anyone else is taking Fastin? I have just started it a week ago today and have lost 12lbs already! Is that the normal for this drug? And will the weight loss slow down after a while? Thanks for whom ever answers me.

Welcome Mandy...12lbs is a lot to lose at your weight. Most of it was probably water weight...no you will not continue to lose at this rate. I lost 4 lbs in the first week, 5 lbs in the second week and have dropped back to 1 lb a week since and I have been doing everything the way I am supposed to (including exercising).

Please don't get discourage that you will not continue to lose at this rate...it wouldn't be healthy and you would gain it back. Instead concentrate on modifying your eating, drink lots of water and start exercising.

Oh...I am also on Fastin. It has been great for reducing my appetite and eliminating my cravings.

I was on the yellow capsules 30mg and my Md switched me to Fastin 30mg (bule capsules). Fastin seems to work better for me. I took Fastin about 6 six ago, lost fifty lbs, got married, had a baby, gained it back and then some. Now I am back. Started yellow capsules on 5/6/02, went to MD on sat. and lost 7 lbs. Then MD switched me back to Fastin. Stick in there. I guess I am averaging about 2lbs a week. Drink plenty of water.
