For those interested I will post the link to adipex-P below. After reading about it, I can see why doctors don't dispence this drug.

That's my take on it anyway... Mary632009

What I see of weight loss aids is that they speed up the metabolism- in other words-you don't absorb food and have lots of bowel movements. I already do this, but I'm gaining weight anyway. I take meds to slow down my metabolism. I was just curious about
