Pharmacy Appointment on Thursday - 1st timer

[Jinnie]

After losing weight previously with Slimming world, and then gaining it back (my own fault, I stopped going once I hit target )
But have been back and for some reason it just didn't work for me this time around.

So now I am up to a size 18, and even the stairs make me out of breath! Not good. Nor not good for my family as playing with my kids just wears me out so fast.

I was surfing the net and saw LT, then on searching for LT i found this forum and saw so many great results, I thought it had to be done.

My only bug bear is that I am on anti depressants, would this stop the pharmacy allowing me on the program?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Jinnie,


When you go to your appointment on Thursday you will fill out a medical questionnaire form and your Pharmacist will be able to tell you then as some medication is not compatible with this type of diet and Lithium is one of them as on a reduced calorie intake it will increase the absorption rate of this drug which may alter the blood levels.

You could always contact Lipotrim with your query as they are very helpful. Also, on their site is a video which is worth watching as it explains how this diet works.

Welcome to the Lipotrim Website

Hi Mini,

Thanks for your reply, I think I will email them now about the tablets. It's not lithium, called Citalopram. So fingers x'd it wont stop my journey before it starts

 

[Mini]

Be sure to let us know.
