That's wonderful about your weight loss! Congratulations! You just got me so excited, I weigh just about 195 myself and I DREAM of weighing 150. About 4 years ago I had lost about 26 lb on Atkins and got down to 150 and I never felt better. But then I just got lazy and fell back into my old habits (this was LONG before I ever heard of PCOS). I gained back that 26 lb plus another 15-20 lb. What does Meridia do? How much do you think that contributed to your weight loss?
I'm also interested in how long the meds are taken for. Hopefully someone who knows will respond soon!
Sorry I didn't answer any of your questions.. I just wanted to tell you how happy I am for you!
