"i just recently started taking adderall xr and even though my doctor and i are still trying to find the right dose i have already noticed a major difference. since i&#039;ve started taking it i&#039;ve been able to get lost in books for the first time because i can actually focus without having to make myself. i have noticed a decrease in appetite but it seems more like a newly developed aversion to high calorie foods and i&#039;m wondering if that&#039;s not because of the added stimulation from the carbohydrates. either way i think it&#039;s important for everyone to remember there is no magic pill and in order to get the best results you have to change your lifestyle too. like making sure to get 8 hours of sleep and eat foods high in fiber and cut back on sugar."
