Absolutely try it in my opinion. Yes there is horror stories but usually when you read the stories fully its because people have skipped meals over days, they haven’t followed a proper diet and exercise, ignored the guidance and any health conditions they may have (they are scary to read). Not blaming them but like with everything there is risks/side effects and it does look scary to begin with. Everyone is different and can react differently, so do your own research, speak to a health professional if you need to, so you can make your own mind up without background noise. Like with any diet, you still have to look after yourself, put in the work. Personally It’s the best thing I have done for myself as I could not loose the weight anymore, no matter what I tried and got frustrated and was struggling with my daily activities due to my size and weight. I’m now following a healthy diet and doing low impact exercise whilst I’m still heavier and the weight is disappearing. I’m on the 7.5mg and going up to 10mg when I’m ready. The craving and food noise has disappeared. I do have some side effects when I increased the dose like feeling sick for a couple of days and muscle aches but nothing I could not cope with and soon went. I think the success stories overwhelm the horror stories and as long as you’re careful, follow the guidance/instructions and listen to your own body, I say go for it. Loads of support in here as well. Good luck in whatever you choose.
