I started taking Adipex on November 17, 2009. It is now January 25, 2010. I have to admit when I first started taking Adipex I felt like I was on straight speed. I couldn't sleep, eat, or concentrate. I still have bad mood swings and get upset very easily. I have no problem sleeping that wore off the 3rd week, I tend to get hungry later in the afternoon. I was taking a half of pill the first month. I take one pill a day now and do great except for my mood swings. My starting weight was 165lbs. I now weigh 138lbs. That's a weight loss of 27lbs. I still have 8lbs to go. I exercise 5 days a week on the treadmill for 30 minutes each time. If you are really wanting to lose weight and can overlook the side effects this is the pill! Good Luck!!

I have been on Adipex since the beginning of December and my starting weight was 271 and as of Thursday I weighed in at 246. I am very pleased with my weight loss and very disappointed in myself to have reached a whopping 270. I guess it's better late than never. I do experience some side effects which includes dry mouth and constipated at times. When this happens I drink even more water and drink a swig of vinegar..it usually helps. I have not incorporated exercise in my plan yet but plan to start next week. I wanted to get the diet down pact first..I do recommend this pill for anyone that has a lot of weight to lose!

I lost about 7 pounds within the first month. The first week or so I feel great, but it does wear off after a while and the dry mouth is bad but chewing gum definitely helps. Definitely works though!

I'M A 6'0 TALL FEMALE AND STARTED USING ADIPEX AND B6 B12 LIPOTROPHIC INJECTION ONCE A WEEK IN NOVEMBER. MY STARTING WEIGHT WAS 387.5 AND 7 WEEKS LATER AND NOW I WEIGHT 366.9. THAT'S A 20.6 LB WEIGHT LOST. WHEN I STARTED THE MED I EXPERIENCED DRY MOUTH AND SLEEPLESSNESS, BUT THOSE SYMPTOMS DISAPPEARED ABOUT 3 WEEKS AFTER STARTING THE MEDS. I WATCHED WHAT I ATE AND COMPLETELY ELIMINATED SWEETS AND SODA OUT MY DIET. I STARTED WALKING 50 MINUTES 3-4 TIMES A WEEK. PRAYER AND ADIPEX HAS CHANGED MY LIFE. I TRIED SO MANY DIETS AND THIS HAS BEEN THE FIRST TIME THAT I'VE LOST ANY WEIGHT. I STILL HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO, BUT I'M SO AMAZED THAT'S I'VE LOST ANY.

I'm 39 years old height is 5 "4" and I have been on Adipex for a month now and this medicine works. Before I weighed 19lbs and now I'm down to 181lbs. I haven't started going to the gym yet. I just watch what I eat. I take half of the tablet everyday around 10:30am. Yes I experience dry mouth but that helps in drinking lots of water. I had jitters the first week and that is gone now. It didn't bother me at all because I have a set goal. I just joined the gym and will be starting next week. I will update you after a week in the gym...Good Luck to all.

I have been on Adipex-P for about 2 weeks and have lost about 7lbs..the only side effects I have is dry mouth, mood swings, and falling asleep at night. Make sure you drink plenty of water! I would rate Adipex a 10.

I have been on Adipex for about 2 months. Started out at 262 pounds. At my 1 month check up I weighed 249 so I lost 13 pounds in the first month. It's a few days before my second check up and I weigh 239 pounds so I only lost 10 pounds this month. I feel stuck at my new weight.. So I need to change something about my exercise or my eating. I really feel like this medicine is great for anyone with a weight problem. Looking in the mirror I see a whole new person. I set my goal to high and I think that's what's causing me to feel like it isn't good enough. I had a friend who lost 80 pounds in 3 months on Adipex. So I guess it's about determination. So I'm back to the gym. I want to get down to 150 pounds. Where I haven't been in 7 years!

I have taken Adipex since February 2009. I am a 41 year old, 5'6" female. When I started taking Adipex, I weighed 187 pounds. By August, I weighed 150 pounds, which was my initial goal. I now weigh 143 pounds! Most of my clothes are now sizes 6 & 8. I feel great. Adipex has changed my life. It was super simple to do.

I started taking Adipex-P 37.5mg on April 1, 2009 and my starting weight was 210lbs. I went back after one month and lost 17lbs. I went back to my Doctor on July 30, 2009 and I weighed 168.5lbs which is a result of losing 41 1/2lbs! I am super excited and can't wait to lose more or at least to get to my goal of at least 135 to 140. The only one complaint I would have about it is the energy level totally disappears after your first or second week.

I was put back on Wellbutrin back in February 09' and I started at 223 lbs. A month later I went back for a checkup and lost 6 lbs on my own. I then asked about Adipex. The Doctor put me on it in March 09'. I lost 19 lbs the first month. It is now August 09' and I am down to 159 lbs --- below my goal weight of 165 lbs!! This is the last month I will be taking Adipex but I will continue my low carb, no sugar diet. I also exercise 2-3 times a week at the gym for about 75 minutes. It has really helped me change my lifestyle. There is no magic pill out there! You really have to be dedicated and be willing to work hard.

I don't take this medication for weight loss, I take it to stay focused. I have ADHD and had it for years before it was ever defined, or diagnosed. The nuns tested me out of school, I started college early and graduated. What it does for me is level me out, by that I mean, I can do my job, keep order at my desk and function like a "normal" person. It helps with my impulsive tendencies. I feel more controlled and less agitated, it mellows me out. My job as a legal assistant/paralegal is defined by order and ability to concentrate, this drug has been a miracle for someone like me. I have no side effects and never have while taking it, I sleep whenever I want, I feel great, eat normally. Without this drug I don't know where I'd be.

I started take Adipex June 2 2009. I have lost 28 lbs since then and feel so much better. I still have a long way to go but I feel motivated to do it. The only side effects I had was headaches, and dry mouth. But I drink tons of water to help with the dry mouth so that isn't such a bad thing. I would recommend this to anyone who needs to lose a significant amount of weight. You must do it right though and be sure to eat, sometimes I have to force myself to eat.

I started using another weight loss medicine on March 24th. The first 60 days I lost 22 lbs. During the third month I was not seeing any changes and switched to Adipex-P. I used Adipex for 45 days and have lost an additional 10-12 pounds. I did not experience any of the side effects or jitters except sleeping. I tend to only get 6 hours of sleep a night.

I have been taking Phentermine for 6 months. I was 250lbs 5'10" male. One day got tired with shortness of breath just taking a shower, that opened my eyes that I needed help. Now I'm 190lbs just taking this miracle medicine and just walk the dog type of exercise. Breakfast - Cheerios/2% lowfat milk and bagels with cream cheese. Lunch - chicken salad or shrimp salad with low fat dressing. Dinner - before 6pm - KFC grilled chicken 2pc. mash potatoes or rice. SNACK - 8pm any real fruit. AVOID ALL SODA EVEN DIET SODA, FRUIT DRINKS, ICE CREAM ANYTHING SWEET. "WATER ONLY!" It will be tough at first but stick to this for 1 month and you have survived. You WILL lose 10-15lbs. CHECK AND RECORD WEIGHT DAILY SAME TIME BEFORE BREAKFAST. GOOD LUCK.

On June 1, 2009 I started taking Adipex-P 37.5 MG. I have now lost 15 lbs. Going from 196.2 lbs. down to 181 lbs. I was hoping to lose much more, but I also know that if you lose weight to fast you can put it back on fast. I work out 6 days a week for about 30 to 90 mins. I will be going to Doctors office on Wednesday for check up.

Have been taking Adipex for almost 2 weeks. The first week I did notice an energy surge, but now I'm back to my normal levels. I have no appetite in the morning, a bit of an appetite for lunch, and have to watch what I eat for dinner. I vigorously exercise for 60 minutes 5 times a week. I have lost 10 lbs so far. I am glad for the help with the appetite, but am always contemplating the pros and cons.

I have always been a petite size person. In December 2008 I was 9 pounds from my goal. Due to emotional stress, I have gained around 25 pounds since then. After series of medical test and no answer, I started taking Adipex on May 29. The second day on it I cleaned my bathroom for 6 HOURS. I haven't had that kind of energy in years. But here is my problem: hunger and cravings? They are gone. Energy? Better than before my kids were born. The weight? Still there. I lost maybe 2-3 pounds. I watched what little I eat and I am more active.

I've been taking Adipex for almost 2 weeks now, it is amazing. I feel great and it has suppressed my appetite. It has changed my eating behavior and the most amazing part is I haven't missed it. I'm not one for dieting but I've lost 7lbs and counting. I do experience dry mouth, but it is manageable. Good luck.

I started taking Adipex back in March of 2009. I was weighing in at around 294lbs. I am currently down to 270lbs and feel great. I would have to say that this has completely changed my whole outlook on life. I have changed my eating habits and I exercise at least three times a week.

I am a mother of two working part time and attending school. Not only did this medication help me lose weight it helped me focus and concentrate in school. I am the happiest I have been in a very long time. I am not currently off Apipex and now my doctor is putting me on Adderall to help with me studying in school.

I started taking Adipex 2 weeks ago. I weighed in at 232 lbs. As of today I weigh 222 lbs. So I've lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I tried taking Alli in January along with the Special K diet and exercise and lost maybe 5 lbs. I am so excited about Adipex. It has helped me cut my portions down. I still eat normal food, just not as much. I have to force myself to eat. So far the only side effects I've had is dry mouth, but that has helped me drink lots of water. I've also had a little constipation. I have stopped drinking Coke. I have had some, but I don't have the desire to drink it. If I get a coke from somewhere I only have like 3 sips out of it and end up throwing it out. I love Adipex.

I've been on Adipex for 3 days now. It has totally suppressed my appetite. I eat a small breakfast most of the time in the morning. Then at lunch and dinner I have to force myself to eat. I eat fruit and drink lots of water. I also exercise with my husband so I am determined to be fine this summer. If Adipex hasn't worked for you then you are doing something wrong.

I started taking Adipex exactly a month ago. I have never had so much energy in my life. I have now decided to jog to work instead of the usual drive. My office is 35 miles from my home, but it is no problem whatsoever. I think I have lost a total of 9 lbs, and I am planning to lose much more. This medicine definitely works. I would recommend having a few gallons of water with you at all times as you can become dehydrated if you are not constantly drinking. I am considering a full time IV of water.

I started taking Adipex-P June 2008, I was 193 lbs (F- 5'3"), today I weigh 158 lbs. At first I didn't really like the side effects, dry mouth, constipation, couldn't sleep, really bad headaches, so I went back to my doctor about a week after starting the pill. I had lost 10 lbs, I didn't want to stop. The doctor suggested I cut the pills in 1/2 and to try to eat and drink more often, comes out that it worked for me. I would take a 30 day supply, cut the pills in 1/2, and I don't do weekends, after that 30 day supply was done, I get off the pill for a month...make sure I don't just regain the weight. Oh, and I don't exercise or eat healthy, I just watch how much I'm eating. Also No soda.

I started a diet exactly 32 days ago. I went completely cold turkey, no soda, no sugar, sweets, or fast food. I worked out on my WII every night for the first week and got bored. Then I got a gym membership and I work out 1-1.5 hours every night. I ate almost every 2-3 hours fruits and veggies. I lost 15.4 pounds the first month on my own. I had a follow up with my doctor and asked him about Adipex. He seemed pleased with my question and wrote me a prescription for 30 days. I have now been on the pill for 3 days only, I went from eating 5-6 times a day and drinking 4-5 bottles of water and my 1-1.5 hour workout to now drinking 6-8 bottles a day. Already lost 4 lbs!

I have been on Adipex for 3 weeks now and the only changes I have noticed in me and my body is that I have horrible cotton mouth and I am extremely constipated. I have maybe lost 1 lb since I started taking this medicine. I am extremely disappointed in this medicine it has done nothing for me.

I started taking Adipex early February 2009 weighing in at 288lbs, exactly one month later weighed in at 268lbs. Now April 3 I am weighing in at 255lbs, only taking half a pill every other day, sometimes I go a few days without taking it. Started out with 30 day supply, 2 months later still have 7 pills remaining, so it really doesn't take much. I love it, it gave me a boost of energy so with exercise and a healthy diet I have lost 33lbs in 2 months! NO SODAS AT ALL. I do not deprive myself of sweets, if I crave chocolate, I may eat 1 or 2 cookies. It has changed my life completely.

I started using Adipex on March 31. Today is April 2nd. I used to drink at LEAST 2 cups of coffee a day. I haven't thought about or needed coffee at all since I've been taking Adipex. I was a chronic pusher-of-the-snooze-button 20 times every morning. Now, I wake up feeling refreshed and energized. The dry mouth? I personally think it's the best part. I'm drinking a liter of water a day. I don't think I drank a liter of water the entire year of 2008. I haven't weighed myself yet. I'm trying to hold off as long as possible but I can say that my face has gotten a lot thinner. So if I haven't lost any weight I know its coming.

I began talking Adipex since March 10, 2009. I am down 14 pounds. I found that after a couple of weeks I was getting a tolerance to the medication. I stopped taking it for two days and the weight started to fall off again. I exercise at least 3 times a week by walking and running on my treadmill and using stretch bands. I feel great. I still have twenty pounds to go, but I am eating MUCH healthier and do not crave junk food anymore. Make sure you change your eating habits so you don't gain the weight back when you get off the medicine. This is just the jump start that I needed to get back in shape after having two kids.

Awesome. It really works with little to no side effects. The worst that happened was in the first 2-3 days I had the "feeling restless or aggressive" symptom and the extremely dry mouth. After that, I was fine.

I started using phentermine (Adipex-P) in the later part of February, 2009. My first weigh in was 233 pounds. I now weigh 203 pounds. The only side effect I had was a slight case of the jitters that lasted about a week. Other than that everything has been great. I do exercise a few times a week, most of the time. Nothing crazy, just the treadmill and weights, when I feel like it. I do have high blood pressure and I take lisinopril 10mg for that. I also keep up with the calories and sodium I take in and I only drink water, if I need flavor I buy the pour in packs (ex. Crystal Light, or Sam's Choice). Just the fact that I don't drink ANY sodas is a big accomplishment for me, because I was a Pepsi-holic.

I was on Adipex in May of 2007. I lost 60 to 70 pounds in 3 months time. I got sick and had all the bad side affects. I stopped taking it in a years time and gained all the weight back and then some. Got depressed because I couldn't fit into my clothes again. I am back on Adipex now. I need this drug to lose the weight. Just be careful taking it and don't drink with it. It does work.

I have taken Adipex now for the second day. I feel great and just for fun I decided to weigh myself and I lost 4 pounds the first day. Granted all I did was pee, this was probably because of all the water I drank. But, I stayed on my food plan and am doing great. This pill is a great motivator for me.

I took Adipex for 8 months and lost about 20 pounds. I just started taking it again and am down an additional 12 pounds. I am very thankful for this medication for I feel like it's given me the life I've always dreamed of. The only side effects I've ever felt are: dry mouth, insomnia and I was depressed when I stopped taking the drug. My results have outweighed the side effects on all counts. I strongly recommend this medication to anyone who is interested in losing weight.

I've been taking Adipex for 13 months. I've lost 50 -55 lbs. I saw the biggest loss in the first few months 10-13 lbs. The next several months I lost 4-8 lbs a month. The past couple of months I have remained at the same weight. During the past year I have been eating sensibly, but not dieted. I have not exercised either. Now that my weight loss has tapered off and I am not to my ideal weight, I intend to start a regular exercise program and hope to shed more lbs. I've not had any side effects and will continue taking it till I reach my goal. I was 269lbs and am now 217lbs. Was a size 20 -22 and now a 16. I want to lose another 50 lbs.

I have been on it for about a month on and off and lost 20 pounds. I didn't excercise at first, but have made it to the gym everyday this past week. It makes you aware of what you eat and how much you eat. I put myself on a strict eating plan of all fruits, veggies, and lean meats. I have 3 friends who have taken it and it has changed their lives! It is a miracle pill! I noticed in the beginning I would wake up multiple times a night (but would always have maximum energy all day) so I took a Benadryl at night and it fixed it until I forgot to take it, and I realized I sleep all night without it now! It has helped me, and for me I don't consider it a quick fix because I'm more aware of what I consume. Just 40pds more to go for me!

I started taking Adipex in June of 2007 and stopped taking it in April 2008. I lost 55lbs with it but I quit cold turkey in May on 2008 and since then I have gained most of my weight back. When I went to talk to my doctor about getting back on it he told me not to stop taking it all at once but to lower my dosage slowly. That's why I gained most of my weight back. He put me back on it 3 days ago and I have already lost 5 lbs. So I do recommend Adipex to anyone. Just make sure your doctor does approve it because it can speed your heart rate up and give you lots of energy. It is great.

In the last year I put on 30lbs going to 207lbs. I have been on Adipex on and off for about 6 weeks. The first 2 weeks I lost 15lbs with diet and exercise, going to 189lbs. I had to stop for a week because I had major constipation. I gained 2lbs back. When I started back with 4 prunes nightly, I have lost another 4lbs. I think the week break helped to get the weight loss started again.

I have been on Adipex for 2 weeks now. I do have a some sleeping problems but it is getting better. I have had some dizziness also. I was 246 lbs and at my 2 week weigh in I was 235 lbs. I have changed the way that I eat and have had no time for exercise. I love this pill.

I think that Adipex is the best diet pill they have come out with yet. I will swear by this pill. I used to wear a size 18 and now I'm in a size 10. This is no lie , I would even do a commercial for this product. My friends know how big I use to be and now... wow. I have a before and after picture of myself. This pill really does work. Felicia

I have used this pill off and on for the past 9 years. I have to say it's the BEST pill for losing weight and the ONLY thing that has ever worked for me. I gain at least 60-70 pounds with each pregnancy, so each time I have a child, I have a MASSIVE amount of weight to lose, and each time I take the pill, I go right back down to my size 4 within 4-5 months ( no exercise). My tips, after taking it so long are the following: ALWAYS take way before breakfast--take the first thing in the morning, and if you really want to get results, don't eat any carbs for breakfast. NEVER go from taking one a day to stopping, because you WILL gain it back. You must wean yourself off SLOWLY and you'll be fine.

I started using Adipex March 08 weighing in at 332lbs. As of September 08 now 284lbs. Lost 48lbs in 6 months. At first had a little trouble going to sleep but that went away after a coule of weeks. I think that the pill is totally worth it. Now I have REALLY picked up my exercise routine and I am now very cautious about what I eat. Very little starch at all. Exercise consists of 3-4 miles on treadmill at 6-7 mph then 30-45 minutes in a sauna EVERY DAY. I would suggest taking the pill for 2-3 weeks then laying off for a week. This is what has worked for me.

I began taking Adipex in August 2008. I have been sticking to my doctors weight loss plan of a 600 calorie per day diet. It has been 6 weeks and I have lost 23 pounds. I feel so much better and plan to continue Adipex and my diet plan until I reach my goal weight. When first beginning Adipex I had some trouble sleeping and found that I was dizzy often. Keeping some hard candy in my purse to eat when feeling dizzy seemed to help level out my blood sugar. After the first couple of weeks sleeping and dizziness troubles went away. I feel that with the amount of weight I have already lost in a short amount of time this drug is totally worth any and all of the side effects that I experienced.

I started taking this pill on 5/24/08 and have already lost 9 lbs. I weighed 180 LBS and now I weigh 171 lbs. I am really excited about this medicine. I needed a jump start because I craved sugars and carbs alot and had been working out 4-5 times per week since January and not lost any weight. I haven't worked out because the doctor says to see how the pills affect me and then start slowly incorporating exercise. He has me on a strict plan and I will be off them in 6 weeks.

I started taking Adipex on March 15th. Today is May 28th and I'm down 15 lbs. It seems to be very slow coming off, unlike the other users who say the weight just 'drops off'. It's not what's happening to me, however I do take an antidepressant that may slow the weight loss down a bit. I have changed my eating habits completely, however I still haven't found the time to exercise. If it's that time of the month, I may even go up a few pounds, then the following week, I'll be back down. It's definitely worth it.

I started taking Phentermine HCL March 18, 2008 weighing 194.5lbs and today (May 8) I am weighing in at 178lbs. I have more energy to work and play with my son. I have not had any trouble sleeping, and my life has only gotten better. It was recommended to me by a friend who has lost 50 pounds since December. I would recommend this to anyone who has tried every other diet pill. This DOES work. It won't leave you disappointed. TRY IT!

I weighed 210 lbs. And now with eating healthly and exercise I weigh about 180 lbs. I lost 30 pounds and I'm very happy with myself and thankful for my family and friends with all their support.
