I don't want to admit....

Binging is awful!
Right now I am feeling hunger....which I didnt think I would with the pill. But as my stomach is growling I have no desire to fulfill the hunger. Which I am happy with....but I am going to have my protein shake here in the next hour so the hunger growling goes away. See usually when I am really hungry I get the growling noises and the hunger pain...no pain. Just gurgle gurgle. lol.
I am a protein drink queen. I swear that's the best thing for me. Which tell you the truth I'm thinking about doing it again. I've done a lot of research and I drink the EAS drinks. There usually cheaper too if you know someone that has a Sams Club card. If your already feeling hungry, try drinking two together. For me that seemed to work better than one every two hours. You might be fine with that, but I found two together seemed to satisfy me more. Plus if this is what your main plan is through out the day, don't hesitate to drink as many as you want the first week. It gets spendy, but it will help you get use to them. It seems to work.
I give you lots of credit for admitting to not only yourself, but us of your regain. I know it's frustrating...we all understand. I've stopped losing (as of September) and right now have regained 4 lbs. Ok, 4 is only 4, however, when you're at my weight...GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. Like you, I've been binge eating so I'm actually lucky it isn't more. Why do we do this to ourselves? I'm so happy you were able to get the pills to help you establish your new health plan. I'm rooting for you and hope this is the jump start that will get you on the road to a healthier and tinier you. AND will make your dream of playing ball again a reality. Also, WOW that's a cute new avatar. Melinda
Have you ever experienced carpal tunnel in your hands? I get that in my right hand ALL the time now. My left is okay cause I don;t really type the way most people do LOL I'm a "hunt & peck" sorta typer but can go surprisingly fast with my right hand :) I don;t get the pain at all yet (most seem to get a lot of pain) mine is mostly tingly and eventual numbness. Especially at night.
Try not to get to down on yourself... I know, easier said than done! But you knew you were needing some extra strength and you weren't afraid to seek it out! I think you'll see things happening now.
My experience with the meds are that if they see you are doing very well on them- sticking to your program and loosing at least 5 per month... they have always been willing to prescribe another month. But I have no experience with that particular med.... and of course your Dr may be different? I've dealt with several in the past though, and if they see you are working it right... they work it with you.
Drink tha****er!!!! Suck it down!!!! Do the "pee Pee" dance! Get that fluid off your bod!!
Take care!

No carpel tunnel. :) It went away...I slept on it wrong or something....it happens every once in a full moon. I planned on going to the gym tonight. Well I don't think I am going to. I am so over-whelmed with sleepiness right now. Not because of the pill because they actually have the side effect of insomnia. But because it looks as if tomorrow will be that day for TOM....I know TMI but I always know the day before. I am glad I always know lol I can expect it. The day before I usually am so tired that its just outrageous I can actually fall asleep at the desk, also, my ankles are a little swollen happens the day before. So I am gonna get out of work, go home hurry up a color a girls hair...send her off, cook me some dinner (Turkey Burg no bun and salad and maybe some pineapple...depends on how hungry I am...currently not hungry.) Then maybe clean up the apartment a bit more to burn some food off then freakin sleep omg sleep!!!! lol
