We all know why everyone is taking it, but the reasons people give are pretty funny. So many "hormone imbalances" and a litany of other issues that are suddenly being healed. I think we know at least 30 people on it and I can think of maybe 2 or 3 that just own that they are taking it to get skinnier. Everyone else has a some other reason they say their doctor told them that they need to be on it. Lots of women taking it that were like 10-20 lbs overweight and are all of a sudden ripped. I know of a couple women that intentionally weigh themselves down at their doc weigh ins so he will keep them on it.
