[quote=Anonymous]I’ll bite! I didn’t weigh too much and got it for alcohol addiction. It hasn’t made me want to stop drinking alcohol. But I only can have one glass of wine, one mixed drink or one beer. I’m too full to drink more than that and it’s enough to take the edge off from a stressful day. Previously I liked at least 3-5. I do not crave it either and only drink 1-2x a week and only one drink. I’m hoping that only having so little will help me taper down naturally and help my body get used to not drinking. I didn’t drink a massive amount but I couldn’t stop when I wanted to.

I’ve also read a lot of reports of improved liver function on glp, and it’s not just because people drank less.

I got a compounded. I would suggest she go for it now because November and December are big drinking holidays. I even found January to be very depressing. Wellbutrin did not work for me, but I couldn’t get a doctor to prescribe naltrexone since I can’t be honest with them about my drinking. I think Wellbutrin plus Nax is effective.

About being smaller… I have lost about 15 lbs which puts me at the bottom of my bmi now. It is about half a pound a week. I just make sure to eat normal, healthy meals. I think most of the weight loss very overweight people have is because it’s super easy to just not eat until dinner. The more you eat the more you definitely won’t want alcohol. Too full! You can eat even if you’re not interested in food to maintain your body weight. [/quote]
