I was talking to some lady's at the gym and they were talking about Relena. I had taken my son into the doctor and saw that they have a weight loss program available and Relena was one of the drugs that they use. Both of the them said they lost 15-20 pounds the first month and one took it again for a second month and lost another 20 pounds and that was almost 6 months ago and has kept the weight off since. I am thinking about scheduling an appointment and check it out. They said it helps to reset your body's metabolism and that is how you keep it off after you quit taking it. I don't want a quick fix and then it to come back hard and heavy. But I would like some help with it. One of the lady's was talking about the other medical benefits she had as well, with her blood work before and after. Her cholesterol and all of the tests that they did went from high to normal in about 3 weeks. I have high cholesterol, not high to the point of meds needed but higher than it should be for a 28 year old. Anybody have any input to help me out? I will be saving my pennies for sure though. So if I do decide to go ahead with it then I can afford it and if not then a new outfit for my son's graduation and nephew's wedding here I come.

Let me know if you find anything out about it - how big were these ladies to begin with? How much were they working out when they first started it?

I know one lady is still pretty big, she lost 17,and the other isn't that big. She wants to lose another 20 pounds and I am not so sure if she should lose that much. They both said they were trying to change their eating habits and increase their exercise. The one that lost about 40 pounds did tell me it was during the winter and she was not as active as she is now, and tried to run outside but couldn't because of the weather. I guess the way it works is it resets your metabolism, so if you can decrease your calories and increase your exercise it will kick up your metabolism but even after you stop your metabolism is reset to that height. I will let you know more this afternoon I am going to call the doc and find out about their weight loss program.

The doctor's office is mailing me the packet since I have misplaced it in the last 3 months LOL. I will get some info from that and if it is something that I can afford I will be starting in May before my babysitting is over for summer. I think if I got a jump start like I could reach my goal and maybe a little more before Graduation, Anniversary and the wedding. I am excited to learn more.
