Panbesy from Dr Keith Ong, Parsons Medical , hope it works !!! Panbesy Day 1

I'm a girl of many interests. I love fashion designing, photography & modelling- but at the moment I'm too fat to model. So this morning I head down to Parsons Medical @ Yishun to see  Dr Keith Ong for Panbesy. My online friends recommended me! As I live in Woodlands, it's very near. Arrived at 9.10 sharp.  I'm the 2nd patient.

My turn came & I went in, told Dr Keith I'm there for weight loss, show him my fat arms...lol... Even he laughed, so hilarious! He explained the side effects & went on to give me 3, 15mg Panbesy- to start for 3 days, that's to reduce side effects (if any...) , then a further month's supply of duromine (30mg).

My Online friends also suggest I go early, without eating breakfast, that way I can start straight away, which I did. Now I keep my fingers crossed! Go home & wait for my fats to disappear...haha.....
will update tomorrow... :)

I do alot of skipping these days, it's great!!!

  1. Hey Poppy, do you weigh lighter everyday during the 2 weeks when you were taking panbesy? I've been taking panbesy for the past days and lost 0.3kg per day. But my weight has remained the same for 2 days😔😢

    1. Hi Sherine
      My advice, you'll go crazy if you keep weighing yourself...haha... I did that & got scolded by my dad !
      Anyway, I started weighing myself like on day 3 or 4 (when mum bought the weighing machine) & found out I've lost 1.5kg- so was super happy.
      After that, I kept weighing myself , like every other hr expecting my weight to keep falling....lol... that made me not so happy!!! (the weight seems to stand still if you keep looking at it on the scale....lol.....)

      So, I stopped & only weigh myself after a few days- I don't think I weigh lighter everyday- .
      Also it depends on how heavy you are to begin with. If you are not so heavy then it wont be so fast I think. So don't worry if it remains same for a couple of days. If you don't eat so much anymore, the weight will go :)
      Now I'm so happy you know! I've never feel so light before! :)

  3. Hi Poppy will be seeing your doc later, I'm the kind who's very sensitive to all kinds of medicine. Do you think if I take only the 15mg , lower dosage panbesy, I can still lose weight? I desperately want to lose a few kgs. Also can I just take only the lower dosage pills from your doc? Thks

    2. No prob :)
      Went & saw Dr Keith. I requested all 15mg pills. If everything goes well, I can even take like 2 pills (30mg ). So far have been taking the 15mg for 2 days- feeling quite ok. Dry mouth, I can sleep also. Yet to weigh myself....haha...

    1. Haha..... if you are so desperate, then don't worry about the side effects even before you take it. Yes some do experience some bad side effects, but they are the minority from what I see.
      Many only have the usual effects like dry mouth etc.... which is ok. Besides no pain no gain right?
      Also it's only for a short period of time. Try it for a week first, & see how you feel. I bet you'll be so happy with the weight loss, you'll find the side effects pale in comparison :) That's what happens to me :))

      Delete
    2. Hi Lulu, you can always take it alternate days. It'll lessen the side effects. Like Poppy say try it first, if it's bad, then take it alternate days- if not- you can take it everyday like the rest of us ...jia you!

      Delete
  5. I took duromine 30mg on alternate days and I add in cheat days on saturday. To keep me going. Trust me you'll not have.much appetite even on your cheating day. I suppose the medication is still in your blood stream. Alt days will allow you to rest your body. I lost 10kg within 8weeks. I think maybe I got water retention. Lol I stop exercising COMPLETELY.basically I lose those bulky muscle that makes me look fat.

    2. Hi , I've went yesterday and doctor gave me 30mg straight plus 3 pills of fat burner for 3 days and the rest for 30 days , so total 3 meds .. doctor told me i cant eat Fruits and Spicy food , i dont understand why I cant eat fruits ? Did he tell you the same thing ? And he also said not to drink plenty of water to avoid water retention .. May I know if he said the same thing to you ? yesterday I've paid total of $156 dollars ..

      Delete
    3. Yup was told the same thing. It make sense because:
      1) Fruits are sweet. Common sense: you need to cut down on all sweet things for weight loss.
      2)most fruits like oranges are sweet & acidic, meaning you'll gain appetite instead. All these would sabotage your weight loss efforts. If you die die must eat fruits, eat only very little. Replace with vegetables for fiber.

      Spicy food increases the appetite & also makes you want to drink some nice sweeten drinks like coke:)) so take less of that too. As for the water retention thing, many people suffer from it- e.g. people like me. So I did what I was told.

      Having said that, these are just general advice. You follow what suits your life-style. But for good results, stay off fruits for a while. My 2 cts :)
      Hope this helps.

    7. Hihi, just want to comment about the water consumption. I feel it's a very individual thing.E.g. joggers & marathon runners naturally drink more. People like me who stay in the office whole day & never move around, I hardly drink much. Rule of the thumb, drink only when you feel thirsty. I find Sipping of water prevents me from drinking too much. I have a weak bladder & always have to visit the toilet, so it helps ...haha..

  14. Hi poppy!

    Cutting down on diet would mean like? Were you on a strict diet like no carbs, no sugar etc? Or just minimal? Like do you still eat normal restaurant or coffee shop food, just smaller portions or like 1/2 a day?

    Please advice!!

    Thank You

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. From my own experience going 'complete' no carbs & no sugar is not easy at all, especially if you are the kind that likes to eat rice & sweet stuff.

      So just cut whatever you are eating by half- or smaller portions. Also if possible cut sugar to a minimal. (sugar would include fruits & soft drinks). Also don't snack. If you do that, your weight will drop & once you lose all that weight, you'll be even more motivated to eat lesser & healthier. That's what happened for me:))

  17. Hi, does any of you experience excessive sweating with duromine? I have noticed. Like my hair gets wet within minutes of leaving home , that's v scary

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. I do, but maybe not as much like you. I see it as Sweating out the toxic, I would think that as a good sign. Also to get rid of excess water in the body.

      Anyway if this persist, take it alternate days to lessen the effects.

      Delete
    2. Okay in minutes abit kuazhang, at home still ok but when I'm outdoors my hair is like significantly wet. If I take it on alternate days, on the day I didn't take will I still feel the side effects? And when I resume, will the body not be familiar to the meds thus having more side effects?

      Delete
    3. I think the side effects wears out after a day, so on the day you didnt take, it would be much lesser ( or nothing at all)- that's what friends who have taken it that way told me.No you wont have more side effects when you resume.

    1. Goodness that's very good results!!!
      7kg after only 15 pills.
      Maybe the hair loss is not related. I've been taking for 4 days no hair loss. Also have not heard of anyone losing hair. Don't think it's one of the normal side effects reported. Maybe it's just a phase.
      Anyway even if it's related, once you stop the pills, all side effects will stop.

      Wish I could lose 7kg like you asap:)) Impressive!

      Delete
    2. First of all, congrats on your weight loss- that's awesome results!

      Regarding hair loss, never heard of that yet. But what you might consider doing is to space out the meds. That means instead of taking it daily, take it during alternate days. Some do that & the side effects immediately were reduced.

  19. Hi ! Can I check if anyone took the pills for more than 3 months ? I am on the third month and I intend to visit dr Keith again before my third month of pills ends. Will he recommend to continue using duromine ? I lost 13 kg already. I am 96 to begin with. But I am hoping to reach 60 which is around 20kg more

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. That's wonderful!
      Not sure what doc will recommend you, but for me I took duromine for 4 months. I stopped after that,I think one can take to a max of 6 months. I lost a total of 15 kg within 4 mths. I look so different, everyone was so shocked when they see me. Their surprise & disbelieve 'kinda' encourages me to stick to a very strict diet after. Now 6 months later I dropped another 4kg, through normal healthy diet & exercise. I find that it's best to combine, diet , exercise even when you are taking the pills:)
      Hope you'll reach 60 soon !

  22. Can anyone tell me more about the vit d jab.

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. In short: it's found that people who find it hard to loss weight no matter how much they diet & exercise is due to their low levels of Vit D. Vit D is needed for the body's metabolism to work properly. So, the Vit D jab, will help in that way. That is to increase your body's metabolism. Once your own metabolism is increase from it's low levels, you'll lose weight.
      Hope that helps.

    1. I wasn't losing weight even when I go on strict diets. Kept wondering why. After blood test, it show that I'm very low on Vit D, which is needed for metabolism to function properly. I've since took 2 Vit D jabs.

      Now I'm losing weight like every normal person! Thank God!

    2. Dr keith also mentioned about Vit D deficiency for me. like the moment i sat down he asked y my tummy is so bulging. and despite my various attempts at slimming down, it barely put a dent in it. so he gave me the pills and said if i still dont lose then will have to give me a Vit D jab. Hopefully i don't need it as i hate jabs.

  30. Hi All

    Just to share my experience too here with Dr Keith Ong service.

    I was heavier/overweight after giving birth on Apr 2016. I weigh about 74kg at 1.55m tall.

    After taking Panbesy & Garba Slim for 3 months.. I am now weighing at 60kg. As per Dr Keith Ong, the last few pounds will be the hardest to shed. So he recommended me taking the Vitamin D jab, and I did yesterday! Targeting to be at 55kg (ideal weight) by end of this month.

    Good luck to me!

    4. That's why you need to be careful not to drink too much. Especially if your problem is water retention. Like me, I dont do sports, dont jog, don't even go to the gym. Used to drink 2 litres of water per day! Now I stopped.
      I guess a change of routine is needed.

  36. Anyone know why does Dr ong say to drink isotonic drink or salt water instead of just plain water? Did any of you follow this instruction?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies
    1. Isotonic drinks contain similar concentrations of salt and sugar as is found in the human body. These drinks quickly replace fluids and electrolytes lost through sweating.

      Plain water if consume too much will dilute the sodium in our body. That's when you get cramps & also some like me, get serious water retention & bloatedness.

      That's why, I follow this instruction closely. I have successfully lost 2kg within 5days. Of course I still drink plain water, but very much lesser than before. Hope that helps.

      Delete
    2. I drink a glass of plain water in the morning.
      However I replace all the soft drinks (which i love & usually drink with meals) with isotonic drinks now.
      I also stop drinking water when I'm not thirsty.
      So only drink something when I feel thirsty.
      My weight loss is quite good so far.

  37. Hi everyone. I weighted 61kg and after taking the pills for 3weeks and vit D injection, I managed to slim down to 56kg. But right now, my weight either remained the same or went up & down like roller coaster even through im still on the pills. Anyone know why or experience before?

    I still need to lose 6kg since my height is only 150cm.

    1. That's how our bodies work. So this happens to everyone, me as well. Our weight depends on what we eat for the day, on activities, & also It takes time to adjust to new weight loss- therefore some fluctuations is expected during the whole duration.

      However If you only compare day 1 of pills & now, you have already went down 5kg- that's very good by all standards. Your problem is you are probably check your weight all the time...haha. Don't do that. It'll drive you crazy! Losing 5 kg clearly shows that it's working very well already!

  38. Hello! Just curious, did anyone took more than 1 vitamin D jab? How was the effect?

    ReplyDelete

    1. I did 2 already. Did my first June last year for weight loss as I find it hard to lose weight. What happened next was surprising, as I find my usual body aches also disappear after the jab. So I did another one, a few months later. Come to think of it, I should go back for another jab.
      Oh, yes I did finally lose some weight. Apparently my Vit D level is extremely low. And you need that for weight loss.
      Hope this helps :))

    2. Did you lose the weight from the jab alone? Or together with duromine & garbaslim?

    3. I did it Together with duromine & garbaslim. A bit kiasu. I was thinking since I'm doing it, might as well get the whole thing...haha

  40. Are you guys following dr ong instruction on drinking isotonic drinks instead of plain water?

    For me, I feel it hard cause im not a fan of isotonic drinks or even soft drinks. I prefer plain water more than anything.

    This might sound ridiculous but I tried having 100plus zero for a day & I already feel like giving up & going back to plain water LOL.

    So any tips on this? Appreciate it, thanks.

    1. Hi Jenny, yes i also received the same advice from Dr ong. He also told me to have A LOT of sweet and salty food.. pretty interesting as it was an unexpected advice. As for myself i am a fan of sweet drinks so it's easy for me to adapt.. did he tell you to take salty food as well? If he did maybe you can try eating them before drinking the isotonic drink as it will make you feel thirsty Haha.

    2. Nope, he only told me to take istonic drink but to skip tofu, green tea, soya & fruits.


      Im guessing all these might be related to water rentention.

    3. Jenny: I feel don't have to die die must listen to doctor's advice. If you only like plain water, then continue drinking that lah. Just don't drown yourself with it, & end up with water retention:)
      Ya tofu cannot eat, my mum said it's only good for older ladies.

  41. Hi guys, I visited Dr Ong yesterday and was prescribed 1 month of 30mg panbesy and garbaslim and 15 tabs of 15mg Lasix. I also took the vitamin D jab as I told him that it is super difficult for me to lose weight regardless. With the vit D jab, it came with a blood test result and the nurse just messaged me to ask me to do another jab, which is another $400 (Even without the blood test).. im not sure if this is necessary as i was told yesterday that a jab would increase the rate of weight loss by 80%. Any advise?

    1. For me I don't even need the jab. I took the meds & garbaslim for 2 months & lost like 6 kg! Amazing!

      My friend who went with me, needed the jab, as she's very low on Vit D. So she took it. Started losing weight, But she was thinking it's not fast enough (compared to me) so she went for a second jab.

      Why don't you wait & see what happens with your current meds? Maybe 1 jab is enough for you? Because everyone reacts differently.

      Delete
    2. Agree with the above advice. However, I hope you are NOT like me. My Vit D levels is so low, even my bf who went with me was shocked.He's a health nut, me the opposite.Anyway I don't even need them to recommend me! I ask if I need more than 1 jab. So I did 2 total. Glad I caught it early.

  44. Hi, I just wanted to know if its ok to take panadol when im on panbesy for my headache? I read somewhere that its ok to take it.. but i thought i should check if anyone has similar experiences cuz my headache is overbearing :(

    1. I had headache too, then I remember doc saying something like "don't forget to eat", which at first I tot was strange. I'm trying to lose weight & he ask me to eat.
      Anyway because of headache, I eat lor, & guess what, the headache stops!

      Now I know, ladies, you need to eat even when on panbesy. Not over eat, just don't starve. Also doc mention something like, if you dont eat, after you have finish the meds, lost the weight, you'll tend to over compensate & started to overly indulge- that'll backfire on all your previous efforts.

  45. Hello! I just saw dr Keith today and he actually told me to eat more sugar and salt but I've been reading here that we should abstain from sugar/spicy stuff.
    He also said not to drink so much water but instead, isotonic drinks as we need the salt. Just wanna confirm what he has told you guys :)

    Thanks for advice :)

    1. Hi I read your comment before I saw dr yesterday. So when he told me the same thing, I had the chance to ask him to explain why(I was a bit puzzled too:))
      Reason was, most people equate taking sweet things/&rice etc ... to gaining weight. But looking at people from Japan & even Thailand they consume lots of rice but they are not fat. I definitely could understand that, my very own sister eats like a guy but she is so skinny.
      Anyway with meds like duromine & panbesy, eating some sweet stuff & rice, can actually lessen the side effects. For people who take the meds & dont eat anything, their side effects are usually quite bad.
      As for water, people who consume "excess" water are prone to water retention. Meaning instead of peeing out the water, it 'might' stay in the body making us weigh heavier & giving us the slightly swollen look! (Sigh.... I'm exactly like that !!!)
      So..... I'm planning to reduce my usual heavy intake of water & continue eating my usual food (maybe slightly lesser..haha). Hope it'll work:)
      Fingers Crossed !!!

    2. Oh I see, thanks so much for explaining!
      but I was wondering with the pills that increase our metabolism, wouldn't it be still better to eat healthily then can lose faster right? hahaha.
      But thank you and all the best to you (and me too)!

      Delete
    3. Of course must eat healthily at all times even, that's common sense.
      I think Dr just want to remind us we can still take some sweet things(to lessen side effects) & not really to eat more of it, than usual.
      This is probably directed at people like me. Initially I cut down on all sugar, while I was on pnabesy. Got such a bad headache. Then remember what dr said. Took some cake & coffee/sugar also my usual lunch. Headache subsided. From then on, I still eat lesser but did not cut off sugar totally anymore. The next few weeks on the meds was much better.
      Lost weight, without so much side effects.

  46. I took panbesy & garbaslim- manage to lose 11 kg after a couple of months. Didn't want my efforts to go up in smoke. So what do I do now, besides the obvious of eating right? Can I maintain by just taking garbaslim? I like it as it has no side effects. Anyone doing that?

    2. An update for the question as I just visited dr ong on Friday.

      He say no running or any muscle building exercise & recommend walking or hot yoga instead.

      Also, after exercise, take only istonic drinks. Avoid plain water & green tea.

      I think the reasons for all these are because dr ong say I just need to lost my bottom fat :/.

    3. Was actually thinking what should I do too. I'll probably try yoga then, since many of my friends are already doing it. I was too lazy before. Now will just join them.

    1. Hmmm.... it's not like U can see a distinctive effect taking place. It's not like that. For example I've been dieting for ages & no effect. The weight just wont go down. Went to see Dr Keith. Found that my Vitamin D levels is very low- that's one of the main reasons why I cannot lose weight the normal way.

      So I did the Vit D jab. Sure enough, after that, I could see a difference. I started losing weight like a normal person. Of course I took panbesy & garbaslim as well. I think the Vit D jab enhance the effects of panbesy & garbaslim.

  61. Hi poppy hope u r well :)) rmb I started my journey in 2016 and also commented on this post to get some advice.

    I have lost abt 15kg w duromine in 2016 (started abt 85kg?) but maintained it between 70-73 on occasional months with duromine and have tried to gone without also

    This time looking to persevere to lose till 60 or less as the lowest I rmb was 66.6 😂

    For those who experience the hype effect and can’t sleep throughout the night at all for first few days (just tossing and turning) do you get the same effect should you pause 2 days or more when you have your period? To those who experience cramps do you avoid duromine or take it as it is?

    1. Hi Lenox
      I know about this possible effect so I waited till there's a deadline on my assignment (where,I've to burn midnight oil to finish my work), then I take the pills. I kinda make use of the hype effect, works well for me ...lol...
      If I remember right, was advise not to take during first 2 days of period. And of course if there's cramps, dont take first. Hope this helps :))

      Delete
    2. Lenox: Wow losing 15 kg that's wonderful !!!!
      When I have the side effects, I take the pills at alternate days. It helps. After a while, the body kinda adjusted & I'm fine now. When I have my period I just stop taking & start again when it's over. I don't have cramps. I check with my friend who does & she said she stopped when she's experiencing cramps.

  62. Awww thank you both Sal and Joni!!! I kinda spaced out and avoided the pills on the first two days of period (unless I ate before my period came on day 1)

    I was at 66.7 two days ago but now at 68 after 1 month ish (pill not taken daily, took abt 26+ for now)

    1. I took beyond 3 months. But I was like really heavy. Also I do follow the doc's instructions to the boot! I was like a camel before, drinking at least 2-3 liters of plain water, besides other beverages. Now drink only when thirsty. I cut off fried food & fruits, cut down on rice. I eat more vegs, meat & eggs.
      Actually you dont have to worry about letting go. The pill is not addictive at all. You can let go anytime. Just follow a method that suits U.
      E.g I'm really the kind that cannot & should not drink too much water as I'm prone to water retention which makes me look swollen. But my friend is totally different. Her weakness is carbo (she loves pasta) so she has to cut that out which was hell for her ....lol... Anyway both of us survived. I took about 4 months, she took 2 months.

  64. Hello,

    I am thinking of going to dr keith ong for panbesy as I heard good reviews about it from my lash artist. She just started on panbesy for 3 days and already lost 1 kg.

    But I am afraid of side effects like acne breakout which I read somewhere online. I already don't have a good complexion to begin with and don't want to worsen it further.

    Did anyone experience it?

    And I am 55kg hoping to lose 7kg to reach my ideal weight. Anyone with similar weight as me who managed to lose 7kg in 1 month?

  65. My advice: if you want to lose weight, dont focus on side effects that you've heard somewhere. Just do it. Cos' most of us will react differently anyways. Like for me, my only side effect is I becoming hype active, like I have so much energy !

    Lost 5kg within a 3 weeks from 60kg. Still have 5 more kg to go.

      He asked me to stop drinking so much rubbish plain water (yeah he actually said rubbish lol) and just drink isotonic drink or even bbt coz I told him bbt is my weakness lol.

      I was very surprised of his advice though but I will follow and cut down on my water intake. Bbt maybe cut down too coz I can drink up to 5x a week which is very bad!

      He also said eat more vegetables instead of fruits and no soy milk.

      Today is my 5th day taking panbesy. Hopefully I can lose at least 3kg after 1 month of panbesy! Keeping my fingers crossed!

    2. I know what he meant. When I was modelling during my younger days. Water is really the thing that will make or break you. You'll never look good when you are all bloated up. So The day before a shoot, the trick is to drink much lesser.

      Anyway back to why I'm seeing Dr keith. Just had my third child & need help getting back to shape. Like you ladies said he's really nice. He's very happy when he found out that I totally understand the water part ....haha... I took the VitD jab, panbesy & garbaslim. We'll see what happen next.
