Beginning a log for Appetite Suppressant 5.75.
My wife has asked for help with losing about 10 lbs or so. We have tried other weight loss subs from other vendors, but none had any effect. So I suggested we try this one.
About us:
We're currently in our mid 60s (year 2020)
Exercise daily
My wife once in the past allowed her weight to creep up to about 165+ though she is only 5'4". She was able to bring it back down to about 135 and keep it there for a couple years, but it is now creeping back up and she wants to nip it in the bud.
In the past, we used calorie counting (I say 'we' because I join her in whatever disciplines she is following for ease of cooking, scheduling, etc.) and had tremendous success using the app 'My Fitness Pal'. She still uses it, but it is no longer 'working'.
We're sexually active together several times a week, and have a fairly active and busy lifestyle in general.
We eat healthy and have currently been very content with the results of a higher healthy fat, lower carb diet. This has worked marvelously for me, I have mostly kept my weight in the range I desire for a decade, which is 191 plus or minus 8 pounds. I'm 6'2" and the last time that I weighed over 200 was over a decade ago. I did it intentionally because I was seeking to pack on muscle.
Our eating habits include dinner together every evening, but we only enjoy a breakfast on Saturday. Only have lunch/brunch on Sunday. Breakfast would be a cup of "Bulletproof Coffee" often with some collagen protein. I will have an occasional protein shake to keep my protein intake up. Thanks to the Bulletproof Coffee and higher fat diet, I no longer have sugar cravings and I do not get hungry very often.
My wife has cravings for nuts, especially salty. Other than that she's not much of a muncher.
So tonight I'll begin playing the App Supp sub. But before I do, I wanted to ask Shannon (or Ben or someone with experience with this sub):
1) Since I'll be playing this at night, I will be hearing it as well as my wife. I am at what I consider my ideal weight, what effects would I expect to see from this sub?
2) Should I try to have her listen to it in her office at her computer, etc. rather than at night so that I won't be exposed?
3) If there would be ill effects for me, how would they manifest?
4) Is there a chance that the sub would want my ideal weight calculation to be greater than 195lbs? (I'm 6'2")
Thanks!

You should expect to discover whether you are actually at your ideal weight nor not. If you are not, you'll start adjusting your appetite to lose weight. Unless you somehow successfully reverse resist. If you really are at your ideal weight, the sub should produce little to no effect on how much you eat.
Quote:2) Should I try to have her listen to it in her office at her computer, etc. rather than at night so that I won't be exposed?
Only if you think you'd rather play something else while she is using it... otherwise, just play it at night and see how it affects you.
Quote:3) If there would be ill effects for me, how would they manifest?
There should be no ill effects. The only possible negative effect you can have (that I can think of) should be reverse resistance. Reverse resistance isn't something a lot of people experience, and almost never will someone experience it on weight loss unless they have been seriously traumatized emotionally and they associate food with security.

The algorithm I use is a secret because not only of trade secret, but because American (United Statesian?) culture strongly tends to distort what is and is not reasonable when it comes to things like this. I prefer not to answer questions like this for that reason because it can influence responses and results. Expectations and preconceived notions and all that. The algorithm seeks your ideal weight, and it is highly accurate unless you're a child under ~16, pregnant or an active athelete.
