I am currently 79kg - I am 176cm tall and my BMI is well within the healthy range. I went to the doctor a few weeks ago and had the annual blood tests - my colesterol, etc are all excellent - I mentioned that I would like to lose weight but it doesn't want to come off for me so she offered a script for duromine.

I didn't even know what it was, she listed off some of the side effects which are nothing compared to what you read online....
I took the script telling her I intended looking into it further.

Thing is, everything I read says it's for people who are seriously obese which doesn't describe me at all.

Do you think this is irresponsible practice?


I think where she was coming from was the kick start to weight loss to give me motiviation, but still not sure.......
