Question:

Answers:
When I was in my early 20's I was addicted to diet tablets , I used to go to the Drs get a prescription notice he didnt write it down go back in 2 weeks to get weighed , he would ask me if I had enough tabs , I said no , got more .
I ended up with hundreds of the tablets , I was taking 6 a day in the end I lost 5 stone in 3 months , I was skin n bone .
I realised I had a problem . told the Dr what I had done , he told me to go home , to put the tabs down the loo and flush , I did , BUT, I scooped them out to save them , but they were all melted n soggy NO GOOD.
I was not going to get anymore from my Dr but he helped me see my life was very good I had 3 small children a loving hubby lots to live for .
Weight was an issue with me as my mother was 40 stone
I was terrified of being obese , as my father sexually abused my sisters and me all because my mum was huge.
I have been drug free for 30 yrs now and cannot worry about being obese as I have a thyroid problem caused through drug abuse , and am very overweight , but very very happy with life .
Good luck to you , you can do it , I did.

yep. i'm addicted to youqa.com s, and i haven't overcome it yet.
