You too? My doc gave me something in the antihistamine family for increasing my appetite but it isn't working. The part about missing mom I didn't anticipate was the meals. I guess it's true that the path to a mans heart is through his stomach.
high protein low carbs and absolutely no simple sugars.....walk in morning and evening....it takes 4 sugar particles to break down one protein......as long as you take daily chewable vitamin and calcium supplement you should have some success. dropped about 100 lbs over 4 years....hope this helps
Phent@rmine is the "Miracle Pill" and don't let anybody tell you it's not. Tried every med possible, even surgery, but nothing worked as well as Phen. And was not the least bit addictive for me either.
Phen/Phen gave it a bad name which still lingers on. Such a pity.
I have a good friend that swears by it as well. She crashes really bad when she doesnt have it though. I tried it once for energy ( i am more on the other side of the weight scale, which is also bad) and i was bouncing off of the walls. I am a nervous nelly naturally so it was a bad choice for me.
I was on on phentermine for 6 months and lost 75 pounds. HAd to stop when I doing out I was pregnant. Great pill to loose weight but you still have to watch what you eat, exercises drink that water or it won't come off!!
I tried a carb free diet once. It does work but like most diets you gain back the weight when you eat normally. It could be good to lose weight for an occasion as you mentioned.
I'm trying to lose 30lbs of baby weight, using a low carb diet and exercise. To help curb my appetite and take away chronic back pain, I take one tramadol a day. Down 12 pounds so far.

I often wish I lived during the turn of the century or at least before the Harrison narcotics act or whatever I think it was 1924 the fun ended but anyway yeh being able to get laudanum, ❄️ and amphetamine at the local friendly pharmacy
@Maelstrom:
Chew on the leaves with a bit of slaked lime and enjoy the mild boost you get from the raw base.
@Maelstrom:
I’m sure you know the folks in the mountainous regions along South Americas pacific side buy cócà leaves at the local farmers market just to help acclimate to the higher elevation when they have to head up into the hills.
@Maelstrom:
I would certainly have bought it, swilled it, enjoyed it…. Why not? A little boost in your juice isn’t going to hurt anyone.
R@Royboy99:
Exports were reported to have around 7.2mg per FL OZ, it’s success is what actually led to Coca Cola
@Maelstrom:
Having cramps and husband thinks you’re acting hysterical (ie. PMS) the doc would either perform a certain massage to relieve the strains of motherhood and family life of that time or send you down to the local apothecary for a bottle of laudanum… A tincture of alcohol and 10% òpìųm. Fun days huh?
R@Royboy99:
@malestrom: yeah thats it, my bad Mariani, yeah i considered that and also its ROA, which was oral so the bioavailability was lower than insufflation, higher degree of purity tho and longer duration … there was a significant marked increase of patents filed by Edison during the time it was released in the US. Presidents were known to use it as well, and the Queen. The pope awarded the wine the Vatican gold medal award
@Maelstrom:
I think it was called vin Mariani. But yeah, it was all the rave back in the turn to the 20th century. Original formula Coca Cola did it for a while too. I think it was pretty weak though. Something like 200 mg per liter of wine. Enough to maybe give you a little push but unless you could pound some serious alcohol, it’d be hard to really feel the effects before the ethyl knocked you down on the ground. It was an interesting time period. Laudanum was a “hysterical” woman’s best friend.
R@Royboy99:
Maybe it’s the admixture of my South American dna that works so well with it ? 🤷
R@Royboy99:
It’s all evident in memory recall, my emails, meetings, … people invest everything they have in a nootropic that provides this… desperately searching without success and it’s right there right under their nose (no pun) … stigmatized by society and outlawed.
R@Royboy99:
Now I’m not foolish or delusional to think that it made Edison who he was … it just allowed him to Edison to Edison to a greater degree … and I see it doing that for me and others who use it as a productive tool and not a substance of abuse.. you can look at this data with the level of patents filed by Edison during that time … comparable to Barry bonds or McGuire breaking records while they were subtly enhanced
R@Royboy99:
One could argue that we would not have motion pictures if it wasn’t for ❄️
R@Royboy99:
I also take month long breaks and replace with Ritalin for receptor recovery
R@Royboy99:
And while it may sound insane and completely destructive … small microdoses of ❄️ has really transformed me. I did extensive research on its use by Edison, the pope at the time, and many others who got great benefit from a wine concoction called vin Mariani … this subtle enhancement changed the world and as long its used with a high degree of control, it’s amazing. you may think I’m crazy … but I’m just being as transparent as I can
R@Royboy99:
I’ve grown to realize that my time is finite and Im only getting older… I’m back to relying on small PRN doses of FDA trialed BZDs and it’s made tremendous improvements to my quality of life. I just need to get out there more and meet someone new, it’s the only piece that’s missing since I’ve managed to get it together
R@Royboy99:
@LatsDoodis: thanks brother … I’ve spent months trying to put myself in uncomfortable places to grow stronger. Hours of research, thousands on supplements, therapy etc …
@LatsDoodis:
@Royboy99 You’re not yet lost. Cut them losses and do what you don’t want to do. Take the boring, shameful, nerve racking way out. It’s the only road back to balance. When you’re ready, you’ll do it. Hit me up if you want support quitting. This ain’t worth your life!
R@Royboy99:
Grateful that this site exists and realizing that trying to save a few bucks today may cost me so much more in the future …
R@Royboy99:
The hardest hit was losing my girl , and I still feel the tremendous heartache everyday, over a year later … knowing that I caused it all. She gave me multiple chances and I let her down everytime … I use Diaz and kpins going on year now for my panic attacks, ptsd and anxiety. With no issues and see a therapist weekly
