Question of the Day: Which South African brand or product do you wish would make a return?
Duromine diet pills
- Thread starter boerenooi
- Start date
I'm on all of the above. lol
unfortunately its not safe with mood stabilisers however when taken with contraceptives they must be taken no less than 13 hrs apart, contraceptive at night, duro or cipla in the morning however rather speak to your doc about all those contra indications
The best stimulants in the world won't help a poor diet. Fix your diet first, start intermittent fasting, add stimulants later.
Also, don't use something as dangerous as duromine - there is a reason it is restricted. Go for green tea extract - the ECGC in it is proven to work. It makes a small difference, around 5%, but it is cheap and safe.
Weight loss can only be done slowly and carefully. You will not lose all of the weight you want by Christmas, guaranteed.

Will green tea pills help at all?
Would you mind posting an example of what your daily diet is like (incl what you drink)?
Have you ever had any blood-tests/panels done?
Are you on any other medication?

A week ago:
morning: small portion of cereal (volgraan pronutro)
Snack: biltong and nuts or provita with nutbutter (not peanut butter)
lunch: I failed a bit here.. I normally buy the low fat or low carb microwave meals from woolies, but I have to admit that if I don't have that I'll get a quesadilla from the cafeteria at work (twice a week at most)
snack a bit again on biltong or nuts
supper: low carb meal (I have a service that makes supper for me and my family and delivers it, they have a low carb option)
What I eat now: The 28 day diet plan. You only eat 3 times a day and the meals that they tell you to eat.
I drink about 2-3 cups of coffee a day with one sweetner (I know). I'll have a cup of tea at night before bed also. I drink 2 pump bottles of water a day. I know I should drink more water a day, I'm working on that.
My downfall: We eat out about once a week. And I drink about once a week when there is a party or a braai.
I assume the contraceptive that I'm also, would also do this.
Nope. I'm on the injection as a safety measure prescribed by my dr. I have womb issues.
I don't do coke or coke zero at all. Doesn't sound healthy...
Now I'm going to sound totally full of ****, but I can't stomach the texture of popcorn. lol
I can do that.
If you want to be healthy, cut out the refined foods.
Pronutro contains both sugar and soya flour. Sugar is a non-food, go through your cupboard and throw away everything with added sugar. Need sauce for pasta? Blend some fresh ingredients. The soya - there's conflicting information about it's effects on hormones, especially in women. Not a big deal, but again - there's no need to eat such refined and processed foods. Buy some oats and serve it with blueberries and cinnamon. If you have bags of sugar in your house - throw it out, it's not a food fit for humans, especially in their journey to recovery and optimal health.
Provita crackers: Processed food, don't eat it.
To a much lesser degree but still a processed food devoid of any real nutritional value.
The large majority of your diet needs to consists of whole, unprocessed foods. Vegetables, fruit, nuts, pulses, meat, fish, fats. Foods rich in macronutrients; food we've eaten for thousands of years. Your body is a biological system that has certain requirements & refined dead foods just aren't going to provide you with the array of vitamins, minerals, fibre, phytonutrients etc. that come packaged in whole foods. Imo the starting place for most people should always be eating for health, not for weight loss - because the majority of weight loss diets out there are absolute garbage for overall health and well-being.

So what do you eat during weekends? How much do you drink and what?
Do you overeat at these braais?
I'm a fairly slim guy and a naughty weekend sees me gaining 3+kg in water retention and whatnot. That's almost 5% of my total weight. It'll typically disappear by around Wednesday of the following week.
My wife doesn't eat between 8am and 7pm. Just plenty of liquids. At night she eats pretty much whatever she wants. She's been doing this for the lady couple of years while exercising regularly and intensively and she's reached her target weight and has been able to keep it there.
I normally don't eat the pronutro or the provitas, I only ate it, cause I was on weigh-less and they told me to. If I'm on no diet plan at all, I just don't do breakfast. I know this is also wrong. I'd rather have a brunch with bacon, eggs and onions, but my work schedule don't allow me to do this. I'm considering doing smoothies for breakfast or a shake (also not real food, I know). But I need convenience.
