This is the start of a brand-new day. I am starting over and I have some help this time. I did some research and a medication that I take apparently causes weight gain. So I am stopping the medication and switching to another one that does not. I am also starting the medication Meridia tomorrow, which is supposed to suppress appetite. I have read a lot about it and I understand the risks, I am going to try it for a month and see how it goes. I'm checking in with my doctor in a month and that's how long he wrote the prescription for, so we'll see. I'm hoping that all of this medication changing isn't going to affect me badly. Right now I feel GREAT because I didn't take that medication last night and it makes me feel very groggy and sleepy most of the time. So I feel wonderful that I didn't take it. I'm waiting to hear from my doctor about safely switching to the other medication.
This is an exciting new journey and I am looking forward to seeing what life brings next!!
