I found this out by chance, because my mom had 0.1mg pills and I laughingly took a few thinking they were a placebo amount.

I thought I was getting too fat in 2015. I went on an "eat half" diet. Literally lost weight eating pizza and drinking beer, just less than I needed. Lost 12 kilos. After this, I just ate as I felt like, with…
