Iām not here to tell you whether to use it or not. I do recommend consulting your healthcare provider if you are considering it versus ordering it from an online pharmacy.
Consider what happens after you stop taking one of these drugs. Specifically, what changes to your lifestyle and diet will be necessary to maintain weight loss? These medications are not intended to be used indefinitely.
The RESTARTĀ® Program is an option to consider if you are not interested in the possibility of experiencing side effects or want to set yourself up for success when your doctor no longer thinks continuing the medication is necessary. RESTARTĀ® is a small group class held online once a week for five weeks. You will learn how to fuel your body for lasting energy, reduce inflammation, balance blood sugar, and the truth about dietary fat. Learn more by clicking the link in the comments. The next class begins on Thursday, October 19th.
Wonder if RESTARTĀ® could be right for you? Message me or stop by Evergreen Wellness Academyās booth at the Womenās Day of Wellness on Sunday, October 15th, see previous post for details.š
