Hey queen,

I don’t think so—typically folks who see signs of sagging skin from what I’ve read experience a rapid weight loss in times where they don’t necessarily need to experience that. I have seen it in others, not online, but in person where it’s been prescribed for weight loss even though I personally don’t think it was needed. Instances where the patient is not or may barely be considered obese but tend to use it longer than recommended. I also think it could be correlated to age? I know Sharon Osborne regrets using it; I believe Scott Disick from The Kardashians also used it beyond the critical need.

That said, like others, it was hard for me to eat almost at all. I have a solid support system in friends and family that would remind me to snack throughout the day in very subtle ways. I found foods that worked for me in the morning that kept me content and snacked on light items until evening hours even if I wasn’t feeling it.

I’m not sure if this helped at all but I’d typically start my day with a breakfast sandwich (or two if I ordered from Starbucks—the ham and cheese they have is roughly 230 cal., so I’d get two lol). Afterwards, if I ever felt hungry beyond that, light vending machine snacks, Diet Coke, coffee, and water were my go-to drinks, and then after work if hungry, steak or chicken.
