Is medication a good way to lose weight??
My boyfriend is obese and he has started to take Acomplia with the advice of his doctor. But it doesn't seem to be a good idea to me. Has anyone been on this medication to lose weight?? Can I have some real feed back?
I have read on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acomplia that Acomplia is used to help people to quit smoking. Is this true?? Will it be effective for weight loss?? I know that I have a lot of question, it’s just because I care a lot for my boyfriend...

Hey katie, so sorry for the late reply, I haven't had any experience with this drug before and have actually not heard of it before. From what I read it is a drug that helps control someones appetite helping them to eat less and with exercise and sensible eating lose weight, I can see that this has been used for smoking as maybe it links with something in the brain and can help with nicotine cravings too.
As I said I do not know about this drug but have you spoken to your boyfriend? how does he feel about taking it? Has he tried other methods? exercise? healthy eating? I know all this can be very hard getting motivated to loose weight I struggle myself 
But we must remember there are some medical conditions where people eat and never feel full http://www.pwsausa.org/faq.htm I think thats what I am thinking of? Has your boyfriend got a similar problem to this and could be why the medications is being used? there are all sorts of reasons why we can put on weight, genetic problems, depression, I hope your boyfriend will be OK and you too,
Sorry to be of little help xx |
