Probese

[golf18]

I am going to a weight loss doctor that I had used before, but I got out of control and gained some of my weight back.  I am trying to get it off now rather than wait over the holidays.   He gave me something new called "Probese".   Has anybody heard of this and has anybody had any results with it??

I did a quick search for probese and from what I can see, I'd have to really question whether or not it would do much for weight loss.

I have talked to 2 different doctors over the past 2 weeks and they've both assured me that the only way to lose weight is a matter of "calories in/calories out" - in other words you have to figure out how many calories you need and then either cut out or use enough to create a deficit.  

As wonko said you might try Weight Loss Alternatives - someone there might know about probese.  But by all means - do hang out and be a turtle with us.

Hi golf,

I can't answer, I'm not familiar with Probese.  (Cute name, though!)  

You're welcome to hang out here with us, but you may also want to post your question in the Weight Loss Alternatives forum, ppl there are more likely to know about weight loss medications:

Again, please do feel free to participate on this forum, I just want to help you find the answer to your specific question.  Here in this forum we joke that we are "turtles," kind of a slow and steady mentality focusing on good diet and exercise.

Good luck, and hope to see you around.
