I'm finding that I still have to work to lose weight, even with the medication. It's not just melting off like some people say. I'm glad it's helping, but it's not a magic bullet!
When I take OEA I mix it with a tablespoon of 92% oleic acid safflower oil—seems to be the best way to get it absorbed. Personal research here, but it works well for me those last few days before my shot.
