I’ll stick to my pilates, thanks

I’ve started working out again, and even though it’s helping as far as my overall health goes, my appetite is still out of control and my metabolism seems unchanged (I know it takes a while!). While out running errands earlier this week, I stopped by a display for the newest “fat burner” pills in Wal-mart (Fentraphen).

I know what you’re thinking, and yes, I know it’s a waste of my time looking at that garbage.

So I’m reading the pamphlet and thinking “Oh yeah sure” to myself, and then I started reading the “Do not take if” section…

WARNING: Do not use if you are pregnant or nursing or at risk of or are being treated for high blood pressure, heart disease, renal disease, hyperthyroidism, spasms, psychiatric medication, suffer from migraines, …

Well, that strikes me out.

Fine. Screw you pill makers, I’ll stick to my pilates and steps, thank you very much. Smiley Tongue Out (Razz)

    I spent the whole day on a roof yesterday and did a lot of climbing
    up and down my 24′ extension ladder carrying various heavy pieces
    of equipment. It’s a good way to loose weight and make your hair
    hurt.

    LOL, believe it or not my hair hurts the day after any big headache … so I think I’ll pass on that offer. ;)

    My grownup girlfriend Brenda gets migraines too. I sympathize with
    anyone who suffers from those hellish things. I used to get them
    when I had a blood sugar problem. The only time I get a headache
    nowadays is from caffeine withdrawal. I suppose you’re one of those
    rare women who is telling the truth when you say “I’ve got a head-
    ache.” :mrgreen:
