Guest guest Posted December 22, 2007 Report Share Posted December 22, 2007 I've lost over 10lbs since starting on HC and a relatively low dose of Armour - 1 1/2 grains now. I'm not on what you would call a low dose of HC anymore - 32.5mg - but the weight started coming off when I was ramping up. I don't know whether to attribute it to the Armour the HC or both, but I don't want to lose any more at this point. My face isn't puffy, but my eyes are sort of sunken but that's mostly from my recent bout with severe insomnia that I might finally have figured out. > Also, is it possible that with > the low dose hydrocortisone I could possibly lose weight instead of > gain it, hence it would help me lose some of the weight I've gained in > the hips and belly area? any comments would be appreciated.
