"i just started the time release, this is my third day. i have always been hesitant because about 6 years ago i started suffering from severe panic attacks and since then i have had a hard time with anything that gets my heart rate going or makes my body feel weird including caffeine. so exercise would trigger panic attacks, i finally got them under control with meds but i weigh 277 pounds not a number i usually say out loud.  so anyways i am not having any major jitters or anything, i have dry mouth really bad but can work with it. i do find that i have no appetite and food taste a little different but not craving to eat all the time. i am down to 269lbs, which is probably water weight. i am staying hopeful because i really need my life back."
