I think I've finally hit on the right dosage for me, for the Leptopril. I take 2 capsules in the morning, 15-20 minutes before breakfast. That seems to give me enough energy for the day and suppresses my appetite at least up through about lunch or a little after. When I took 2 in the morning and 1 at lunch I got the jitters somewhat. Didn't like the feeling.
I can't remember if I mentioned, but I did the weights workout yesterday, with the lowest poundage I had available. I figured I was so unfit that I had best start slow. I am happy to say that I can graduate up to the next size of handweights -- my arms aren't sore, meaning I didn't stress them enough in the workout. That's good news -- at least one part of my body isn't bottom of the barrel, as far as fitness goes!
I roamed around the internet last night, checking some of the diet supplement reviews for kicks. As I imagined, there were more "it didn't work" than "hey this stuff is great". I want to qualify that though. It appeared from the comments that the people who said it didn't work were hoping for a magic pill that would let them eat the way they do now, without getting active in some way and still have the pounds melt off. Sorry folks, it doesn't really work that way.
I also discovered some of the differences in the supplements. For example, Leptopril/Leptoprin is an appetite surpressant. Relacore/Corti-Slim are stress reducers (to reduce cortisol in the system). There are others that are metabolism boosters. And others that are for energy, I guess assuming you will use that extra energy to get out and exercise. There are some that are combination as well.
Hmm, guess I will have to eventually do a diet pill review. Might be interesting.
