One Alternative to Duck Tape.

Aside from duck taping my pie hole and curbing what I put down the hatch, I have an alternative, more or less. My doctor did agree to allow me to use an appetite suppressant for a short while until I get on a good eating regimen. She was going to put me on a prescription medication called Phentermine, which will suppress my normal appetite until my body adapts to the new caloric level she wants me to maintain. It seemed like a great idea until I saw the cost of this Rx medication and that put the brakes on for me on that front. There had to be a better, cheaper way to do the same thing. I searched the web and found a similar product that was based on Phentermine but called Phentirmene. It's supposed to have the same effect on suppressing the appetite but not nearly as costly. This I can handle, the absence of goodies will be a more difficult task. Why do they make the junk stuff taste so great? So we'll eat lots of it and get hooked on it's empty goodness. The best part of this is that there are no reported side effects and it doesn't require a prescription. I'm going to let my doctor know what I want to do and bring her on-board with the plan so she is aware of what I'm doing, always a wise thing to do when taking supplements or other treatments that aren't prescribed.
