Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I have been using phentermine since May 19 2009, weighing 265lbs and on June 28, 2009 I weighed 246lbs and counting. I am doing this with little to no exercise. I hope to lose a total of 100lbs.

phentermine: I am 25 years of age and my weight has always been an issue. After I had my old son, now 8 months old, I got up to 300 lbs. I didn't want to get any higher. This was the kicker. I want to live a long healthy life and be able to interact with my son as he grows. I started Phentermine 37.5mg on June 10th and by the 24th I have lost 22 lbs. It has been hard I will admit. I've always been an emotional eater, never alcohol or smoking and of course no illegal drug use. Food has been my comfort all my life pretty much. Now I am just trying to find out what to replace that comfort with. I admit I haven't even exercised and I need to do so. I am planning on walking today and I'm going to absolutely have to stick with it. That's going to be the hard part.

phentermine: I have been taking phentermine for 2 weeks now. I was at 246 and now I weigh 238. I think that I am making good progress. I was having bad headaches, dry mouth and a little anxiety at first. So I decided not to take the medicine every day. I take it Monday-Friday and no weekends. I do a bit of walking, but I would like to increase the amount of exercise that I do. I have a goal of 3-4lbs a week. I hope to be down to 215lbs by August. Wish me luck.

phentermine: I went to the doctor on June 23rd and weighed in at 322lbs. I started Phentermine that day and as of this morning I weighed 312. That's 10 pounds in less than a week. I feel great, no problems sleeping and tons of energy. I can't stop chewing gum or drinking water. I have cut out all snacking and soda. I have to force myself to eat. I love this program I am on.

phentermine: I have lost weight on it and just to maintain my weight, I take it every other day. I am on the 30 mg. The first day I will feel some anxiety, but the next day I don't, but still don't feel hungry. It also helps to stop taking it for a week or 2, than start taking it again so you continue to lose weight.
Make sure you are exercising. You don't want to lose so much weight so fast and than end up with a lot of flab/extra skin. This happened to my sister who lost 60 pounds on it.

phentermine: I've been taking Phentermine 15mg twice a day for about a week now and have lost about 7 lbs so far. I do feel the dry mouth, a bit of the jitters, feel like I don't have a full night's rest. The oddest sensation has been anxiety while driving. I didn't see anyone report such a feeling but I've never had any issues behind the wheel ever before. I would like to continue on my goal and will give it another week or so. If anyone has had this occur to them before please share. Good luck to everyone.

Ionamin (phentermine): This medication worked wonders for me. I went from 230lbs in September 2008 to 175lbs in February 2009. When I took it, it just made me almost forget about food. I would sometimes forget about eating until late in the day and just ate because I knew I needed to. The only bad part was that it stopped working before I got to the weight I wanted, but I haven't gained the weight back as of June 2009.

phentermine: On June 11, 2009 I began taking Adipex pills and I have lost 10.8lbs, eight of which came off the first week after using the pill. I work out 2 days/week for 30 to 40 minutes. I am going to increase that to 4-5 times a week. I work nights at a hospital and walk a lot. I feel an energy surge, with sweat rolling down my back. I wear my hair pinned up to keep cool. Yes, my mouth is dry, but that encourages me to drink more water. I take half a pill before breakfast and prior to dinner. Adipex has helped cut my hunger tremendously. After working all night I no longer feel so hungry that I have to stop and eat breakfast or snack on junk food to feel satisfied before I get home. I go home and go to sleep. This gives me a sense of control.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started this 2 weeks ago. I was expecting all this energy but don't notice a change during the day. But I can't sleep at night. I have the dry mouth which makes me drink more water than usual. I thought I would have faster weight loss, but everyone says give it time. I lost about 6 lbs so far. I weigh 149lbs and am 5 6'.

phentermine: I started taking Phentermine in March 2009. So far I have lost 16lbs. Going from 191lbs to 175lbs has already made me feel so much better. I have a challenge from my Doctor to be down 20 more pounds by my next visit in late August. I'm gonna do it. I am very happy that I got introduced to this medicine. I was never able to lose this much weight on my own. For me this drug had some insignificant side effects such as dry mouth and sweating a little more than usual, but these have disappeared with time. I have been stuck at 175lbs for quite a few weeks, because I need to step it up with the exercise. I am so excited for the future because this time I know that I'm gonna make it.

phentermine: I started taking this medicine on June 10th, 2009. It is now June 19th and I have lost 5 1/2 pounds. This is not the first time I have taken this medicine. I took it 7 years ago and lost 60 pounds in 10 months. Never had a problem with it. It was the only thing that worked for me after several attempts to lose weight on other programs with no success. The main reason why I like this medication is because it curbs my appetite and I don't feel hungry as much and I don't have the cravings I used to have. I feel like I'm in control. A word of advice - I am noticing this time around, if you have any problems with pinched nerves such as pain and discomfort, this medication will increase that pain and discomfort.

phentermine: I started using Phentermine 37.5 just two days ago and I love it. I started at 5'6", 224lbs. This morning I weighed myself and I'm already down to 219lbs. I am hoping to lose about 50-70 pounds at least. I do get the dry mouth that others have said, but I don't have the energy boost, I do however have to pee like every 30-60 minutes I think it's because of the amount of water I'm drinking now.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started takeing Adipex in April of 2009 at 253 pounds. I have lost a total of 45 pounds. It works great, I have so much energy, I walk two miles everyday except for Sunday. My doctor brags on me all the time about my success. I am going to keep losing until I lose 100 pounds. The pill really does work and I eat what I want, just small portions and no soda at all just water. Good luck! Hope it works for you.

phentermine: I started taking this in April 09 2009 and its June 11 2009. I have lost 18 lbs ... its awesome. The only thing is I have bad constipation but that can be fixed. I do exercise 3 x a week and I do eat healthy but treat myself once in awhile. I recommend to anyone who wants to lose weight and keep it off.

phentermine: I took my first phentermine this morning, a 37.5mg tablet. I got the dry mouth later in the day, but still felt some hunger pangs. I probably haven't eaten as much as I should have today either. I've noticed a little more energy, but still took a short nap at 4:30 PM. That's probably because I felt motivated today and walked 1 mile, then later on rode my bike for 11 miles, which really wore me out.
My weight yesterday was 316lbs an all time high. I'm looking forward to becoming much lighter. I should be around 175 pounds. I have a long way to go.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started using phentermine on January 6 2009. So far I have lost 4 stones with no side effect within 5 months. I do exercise about 4 time a week on the threadmill and cut down on my fatty food. I don't even take this tablet regularly sometimes about 3 days in a week and it is still work for me. Good luck.

phentermine: I started the medication on 5/28/09 and its now June 9th. I have lost 6 lbs in eleven days. I am happy with the medication and it definitely helps with the appetite. However, you do have to exercise and watch what you eat. I don't have those sweet cravings now. I have had little to know side effects. I really haven't noticed having extra energy but do have dry mouth. I chew sugarless gum and drink plenty of water.

phentermine: Gained 80lbs due to disabling injury and several surgeries and lack of inactivity. Have been on phentermine for 1 week. Had headache first two days, no other side effects except only sleep about 4 hours a night but feel rested. Anyway I've lost 10lbs so far. You do have to eat because if I don't make myself I wont. Have energy but not nervous, have high blood pressure (under control with medicines for years) no affect on it at all so far but keep it checked daily.

phentermine: Pros: Not too much stomach discomfort, even with an ulcer and irritable bowel syndrome, alters your craving for food - instead of fries, it's fruit. I've lost 82 pounds so far, with only 20 to go.
Cons: It alters your cravings, not sheds the weight for you. It must accompany a change in lifestyle. I had trouble with increased heart rate and I'm in my 20's with no heart problems. I was even unable to donate blood because the rate was too high. This stabilizes every time I go off the medicine. It also can make me restless. When my husband and I were both on it, we fought like crazy all the time. I thought I was crazy, but each time we would stop taking it, the fighting would decrease.

phentermine: I was very athletic and fit which helped me stay slim most of my life but after college I got an office job and sat at a desk all day. I needed a second job and ended up working from 7am to 10pm everyday. This made me eat as much as possible on my half hour lunch break and also left no time for exercise. I gained nearly 50lbs in the first few months of my jobs and became very depressed. I started phentermine a month ago and so far have lost 27lbs I now have energy to workout at least a little every day, I eat fruit and veggies in small portions throughout the day and do a quick run on my lunch break.

Adipex-P (phentermine): I started taking Adipex in January of 2008. At that time I weighed 230 lbs. Today I weigh 170 lbs and still losing. Lost 60 lbs.

phentermine: I started Phentermine 6 months ago and I have lost over 50 lbs. I was 222 lbs when I started and I am now 168 lbs. I exercised about 3X a week up until a few weeks ago. That really speeds up the weight loss - a pound a day was a normal loss. My husband who weighed 330 lbs, started in January and has lost over 70lbs with eating right and walking on the treadmill 4X a week. Cravings are virtually gone and you have to remind yourself to eat. You want to drink tons of water because you are always thirsty. My concern is how I am going to be when I stop the drug which will be at the end of this current bottle. I hope to keep losing and not let myself go above a 5 lb gain. I never want to be the "fat girl" again.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: This medicine will work. I have 4 children and needed to take off the pounds, which very hard to do when working and caring for your family. This medicine helped me in many ways but a controlled and well balanced diet and light exercise is key to keeping the weight off. Moderations/motivation is best and an old picture to remind you of what lerks around the corner.

phentermine: I was referred to a weight loss doctor from a friend of mine. I had lost 50 pounds 10 years ago on Fastin so I was all for taking Adipex. Don't get me wrong I have tried every diet in the book with no luck, so I chose this path. He prescribed me Adipex, with the help of it suppressing my appetite I completely cut out all my snacking (which was my biggest weakness) and cut out soda and starting eating right. I have been on it for a little over a month now and have lost around 25 pounds. I have not noticed any side effects. I also did not have any energy a lot of people told me would happen while taking Adipex, but I'm not worried about it. I'm very happy with the results so far, and looking forward to the future with it.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started taking it on May 8 2009 and I went in for my first weigh in on May 19th and I lost 12 pounds. So far it has been working for me. I started at 317lbs and now as of May 23 I am 300lbs so I have lost 17 pounds total. The only thing about it that I don't really like is that my mouth gets dry, which I guess is kind of good because then you have to drink lots of water. So far I like it and it's working for me.

phentermine: I have been on phentermine for a month and love it. The only side effects are dry mouth, lack of sleep and slight constipation. I did notice that after 2 weeks of being on it I did not have as much energy as I had in the first 2 weeks. I decided to take it Monday through Thursday and then start up Monday again. That seems to work better for me. I am down 14 lbs in one month and I am so excited, 40lbs away from my goal.Yeah.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I just started taking this 5/7/09 and it is now 5/20/09. I have not had any extreme weight loss. I am 5'9" and weigh 209lbs. I would like to get down to 150lbs. Have lots of energy, no appetite, so not sure why I am not losing. Never a soda drinker. Hoping it will soon start working for me.

phentermine: I started phentermine about 3 weeks ago and lost 10 lbs so far but may be more and definitely the inches are gone, but starting yesterday I started experiencing some chest pains and shortness of breath and its like a little pressure sitting on my chest/lungs. My doctor appointment is not until Tuesday but I will stop for now. I hate that because these pills do work, I have more energy, eating way less. I was just hungry all the time for no reason and it was hard for me to lose weight, exercising daily. My mom uses them and she hasn't had any side effects. She has lost 21 lbs so far. So my doctor may take me off, so if that%u2019s the case I will definitely have to buckle down and stay focused to lose the weight. Good Luck to everyone else.

phentermine: I just wanted to let everyone know that if you have been taking it for a while (a month or more), be careful about moving to quickly after being still for long periods of time or standing up to quickly. If you stand up to quick, sometimes your eyes will get tunnel vision and then start to go all black. I have been taking phentermine off and on for several years. I use it as necessary for a little while and then I get off. If you do not keep up with your diet you will gain the weight back plus some, maybe double. If used appropriately, it will work wonders and can help you reach your goals, but don%u2019t over do it. Know your limit.

phentermine: Started in March at 202lbs now in mid May I'm at 177lbs. I do eat 3 meals a day - low calorie but I make myself eat. Drink nothing but water even when dinning out and exercise at least 2-3 hours a day. I'm trying to stop the pills I now take one every other day. It's good to also keep a food journal.

phentermine: I have taken these pills for a little over a week now. I have to actually force myself to eat. You have to eat something or you will get bad headaches, well I did. I lost 5 lbs. I jog a mile in the morning and one in the evening. The pill gives you lots of energy and a very dry mouth it's great.

phentermine: I've been using Phentermine for 3 months now. My doctor gave me a 30 day supply, but I still haven't finished it. I take it every other day, or every 2 days. Before I took the pills I weighed 238lbs. I just had a baby in January (3rd child), and I wanted to take the pills to help me lose the weight. I went in last month for an appointment and I'm down to 194lbs. So, it does work. But sometimes I get headaches, or I get very tired, and need to take a 30 minute nap and that's why I take it every other day.

phentermine: i just started taking this medicine. I am 5"2 and 183 lbs and have too much energy that its making me nervous. I have had a hard time sleeping and have had a lot of cotton mouth. I have to say though it is working. Before I started taking it I would eat everything in sight. Now my mom has to force me to eat. I have had no weight loss because it's only been a few days but I'm praying that it will come off soon.

phentermine: I started taking phentermine 37.5mg on May 5 and I have changed the way I eat but mainly just portion control and no sodas and a lot of water. I don't eat after 8pm and I have lost 6 lbs so far. However I am not experiencing the energy or the appetite suppressing that everyone says. I seem to still feel hungry even after I take the pill. I'm not going to give up - I will give it at least 3 weeks.

phentermine: I have been taking phentermine for about 6 weeks. I have lost 10lbs, but it is not the "miracle drug" I had heard some people claim. I definitely have dry mouth which is making me drink a lot more water and I also suck on mints a lot. My biggest concern is shortness of breath. I haven't seen anyone else mention this. I am going to try a lower dose to see if that helps.

phentermine: I started taking this on April 18, 2009 and as of today May 2, 2009 I have lost 6 lbs. The first week I lost none, but since last Monday the scale is showing 6 lbs less. I have dry mouth but don't mind it - helps me drink plenty of water. I love how I am able to function without thinking about food non-stop. I hope to lose 12 more lbs.

phentermine: Just been on phentermine for 2 days now, the first day I felt "high" today I feel normal. I have not got a boost of energy, but I did wake up very early this morning. I need help with food cravings, not so much hunger. So far so good, I have not gotten that "taste" for something in the last 2 days.

phentermine: I have taken this medication from time to time for many years with wonderfully positive results. For me, it completely eliminates my appetite which can be a problem if you aren't careful. I strongly recommend this medication for people who are serious about controlling their weight but who also understand that simply taking a pill is not the answer for anything. Beware of becoming dehydrated. Do not interpret the 'slight buzz' as a sign of feeling better. This medicine increases your metabolism, thus, more energy. I keep strict records of how long I allow myself to take it. And because it can be habit forming, I 'prepare' myself before I take a break from it. If you have drug or alcohol issues this medicine may not be appropriate for you.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started taking phentermine on October 18, 2008. At that time, I weighed in at 263 lbs. I'm 5'10 so I carry weight very well. As of my weigh in yesterday (April 30, 2009) I've lost 41 lbs. The only side effect that I've had to deal with is insomnia; but over time, that has gotten easier to deal with. I'd recommend this medication; however, I would also stress that the weight you put on wasn't put on overnight and therefore, won't come off overnight. Slow and steady wins the race.

phentermine: I started taking Adipex a week ago today. It has made me eat half of what I used to. I love the way it makes me think about what I am putting in my mouth. I have had the dry mouth and sleepiness at night side effects. In the last few days I have started experiencing severe blurred vision. I was just wondering if any one else has had this problem. By the way I lost 5 lbs the first week.

phentermine: I have been taking Phentermine on and off since February 2009. I am 5' 3" and I weighed 169 pounds. Immediately I had great results. I had tons of energy and was extremely happy. I wouldn't take them on the weekends but would continue to eat sensibly. The pill made me actually crave water and looking at food was like looking at a pile of rocks. I actually was worried that I wouldn't want to ever eat again. I eat 2 apples in the morning and snack on walnuts/craisins during the day and then I eat a meal at night. So far, I have lost 19 pounds. I would like to know if anyone is having a clinched jaw, red eyes that seem to have a slight jabbing feeling to them? I'm not sure if it's my late nights/stress or side effects from Phentermine.

phentermine: I am on week four and have zero side effects. The first three days I was a bit jittery, but that's it. I have tons more energy and have stopped craving carbohydrates and alcohol. I eat much smaller, healthier portions and am exercising more. I have not experienced the drastic weight loss others have, but so far it seems to be steady. I was down 4 lbs after two weeks. I'm hoping for more weight loss at my weigh in this week.

phentermine: I took Adipex 4 years ago and lost about 30 lbs. I just started taking it again. I am getting married in October and need to lose 30 lbs. Today is day 4 and I have lost 3 lbs. I do have some side effects, dry mouth, which is good because I drink lots of water. Headaches, which I just learn to deal with because the weight lost is more important and sometimes I get a nervous feeling. I would recommend this drug if someone needs to lose weight.

phentermine: Started on these at the end March. Lost 10lbs in the first three weeks, not a great deal, but I only have 2 1/2 stones to lose. Had no appetite in the first week but it has returned a little in 2nd and 3rd week. Not that much though and I'm eating much healthier. However,just weighed myself this morning, at the end of my 4th week and I'm gutted to find I've only lost 1 lb. Although I did have a little bit of chocolate egg and haven't had the chance to go on my wii fit as I usually do nearly every day. Now I'm wondering whether I should stop the tablets for a couple of days to kick start them again. As I have read that others have done this. Only thing is I had headaches for first three days when I started them and don't want a repeat of that.

phentermine: I took Adipex 2 years ago. I lost 15 pounds then gained it back plus some over this time. Now I am trying the phentermine 30 mg. I'm on my 4th day plus I am taking chromium too. I have lost 5 pounds. The doctor told me to take 2 a day. I was skeptical. Don't really like taking 2 so I'm going to cut back to one a day. Have to make myself eat. I have cut out caffeine and sweets. I am not a healthy eater so my main goal is portion control and not eating late at night which is a habit. I don't really like the side effects but when I took Adipex I was fine after the first week so I hope this is the same.

phentermine: I started phentermine at the end of January. I started at 222 pounds. I am 5'4" which gives me a BMI category of Obese. I was skinny in high school 15 years ago but have had two children and haven't exercised like I should have. It is April 23rd, and I have lost 33 pounds so far. I have gone from a size 16 pants to a size 9-10. I do have dry mouth but I keep lifesavers with me and that is enough to take care of it for me. I wish everyone good luck who is starting their journey to a better life and better health.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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!

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: April 16, 2009. I have been taking phentermine for a month. When I first started to take this pill I weighed 220lbs and today I weighed in at 200lbs. This pill is the best working diet pill I have tried and I am only taking a phentermine 15.7mg. If you really want to lose weight try this pill. The only side effect I had was cotton mouth but it doesn't bother at all.

phentermine: I took this pill some years back and didn't like the effects. Fast heartbeat and feeling like I was always high, dry mouth. Now in 2009 I needed something to jump start my weight loss. So I went to a weight loss clinic the first day I had a headache. I dont get excess energy but I have no side effects. I'm just hungry now but I eat 3 small meals a day and went from 209lbs to 187lbs as weighed yesterday. I exercise daily and drink nothing but water.

phentermine: I am 5'2 and 210lbs as of yesterday. I have been taking Phentermine 15mg for 30 days only. Today is my 2nd day and I have only experienced dry mouth and a little more energy. I have read that people have a lot more energy and don't think about eating. Well yesterday I took the 1st pill at 5.55am and I was hungry by 10.30am and sleepy again by 12noon. I tried taking a nap around 7 but couldn't get to sleep. Went to bed around 11.30pm slept fine. I am hoping to lose 65lbs but I will settle for 55lbs. I just wish the doctor would have started me on a higher dosage. I am drinking a lot of water and I plan on working out on the Wiifit for 1 hour a day. I will write back in 2 weeks if I lose any weight.

phentermine: I started taking phentermine the second week of March, I weighed 196lbs, and am 5ft7. In a month I have lost 24 pounds, I weighed 172lbs this morning. I have never felt so good in my life. I walk about 3 miles a day, and only drink diet soda, I don't eat very much. I usually eat celery, yogurt, and veggies. I do get a lot of headaches, but to me it is worth it. This pill has motivated me to set goals for myself and to get in shape, like I said I feel great about myself now. The boyfriend is so jealous, because I am shrinking away. I take my pill about 8am, the earlier the better or else you will never go to bed. If you are looking for fast weight loss take it, but you also need to exercise and learn to eat right.

phentermine: I started taking it on March 17th and was weighed in at 178lbs. Since I am only 5 foot tall you would say I was rather large. I just went for my 3 week check up and have lost 8 pounds. The only side effects have been sleeplessness and dry mouth, which in turn was a good thing. Now I drink lots of water and before I didn't drink any water. This stuff really works. I would recommend it to anyone who has a weight problem.

phentermine: I started taking these pills about two years ago. At first it really jump started my weight loss. I weighed 195lbs to begin with and within a few months I ended up at 170lbs. There were a few side effects though. It gives you awful cotton mouth, moodiness, headaches and insomnia. I would stay awake for days at a time. After the initial weight loss, I guess my body built up a tolerance and it stopped working for me. I gained back all of the weight and more. It is a great motivator, but it really does come down to diet and exercise if you really want to keep it off.

Ionamin (phentermine): This product was awesome. I went from 192 lbs in September of 2005 to 138lbs in January of 2006 without any form of exercise. I was working 2 jobs and it gave me more energy than anything else I've ever tried. Some days I would have to force myself to eat something because I just wasn't hungry.
Then, they took the stuff of the market (in Canada at least). Neither I nor my doctor can get it anywhere. I didn't have ANY side effects other than losing ugly fat.
Bring this stuff back! I know plenty of people who tried this and ALL loved it with great results. Since being off Ionamin, I'm back at 174 lbs. There is nothing on the market like Ionamin. Please bring it back.

phentermine: I started taking this medicine in 10/2008 (1 pill a day in the beginning/2 pills a day in the end). I weighed 240 lbs (male) and had been stuck here for 2 months following a 20 lb weight loss. This medicine saved my life. I took it from 10/2008 until 03/2009. I now weigh 182 lbs. I learned portion control and the right way to eat. The medicine helped give me energy which helped me learn how to exercise. I had a few side effects in the beginning. I was constipated for the first month or so. I had to pee a lot. I suffered from dry mouth and had a hard time sleeping for the first couple of weeks. These symptoms all went away after about 3 or 4 weeks. I stuck with it and am glad I did. Stopping the pills was no problem for me.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I've taken this pill on and off for a year. I too had dry mouth and restlessness along with aggressiveness but I ran across a solution to rid myself from all of the above. I take Calm which is magnesium and is all natural. It is good for all of the above symptoms including constipation. I use the powder form and it states you can use as much as you like to get the desired results.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started taking Phentermine because I was obese and had high blood pressure. In a matter of 3 weeks I lost 19 lbs and still losing. I took 1 pill in the morning at about 9 and munched on pork rinds. For lunch I ate a can of soup or similar food that was about 150 calories. I drank sobe 0 calorie vitamin drink and ate a normal size meal for supper. I was not hungry and my blood pressure has dropped. I feel wonderful. No side effects at all.

phentermine: I started out at 208lbs and have been doing a limbo for the past year never going past 203lbs in weight loss. This is with crazy workouts at the gym, an all liquid diet until I get sick, the works. So my doctor prescribed Adipex for me. Well, the first day I took it, and a few hours later, being Saturday, I wanted to take a nap. So I lay down for 20 minutes and then got a huge spell of energy. That night, no sleep whatsoever. In fact, I got up at 6:30am out of boredom and rearranged the living room furniture. Side effects were cotton mouth, a few jitters and weird dreams. Got to sleep after the second night, but have dropped 8 pounds so far. I hope it keeps going. My goal is 150lbs.

phentermine: I started taking Phentermine last summer to increase my energy and as a nice side effect to lose weight. I was walking (fast) 3 miles everyday. I was on oral diabetes medicction. Through the exercise I lowered my choloesterol 41 points, got off the diabetes medicines and lost 9lbs. Phentermine did decrease my appetite, but didn't help me lose weight. I ate EXTREMELY healthy, watching carbs, calories, etc. The side effects were horrible constipation, I would drink HUGE amounts of water everyday and still had extreme DRY mouth and skin. Phentermine did increase my energy, sometimes feeling very jittery, especially at first, finding myself wired and only sleeping 3-4 hours a night. NOT WORTH THE SIDE EFFECTS FOR ME.

phentermine: This pill is a miracle. I started taking Phentermine 37.5 January 23, 2009. I went for my follw up I had lost 13lbs by March 6th. I work out daily and eat small portions throughout the day. I havent had any problems with taking the medicine. The only problem I have had recently is nausea. Your appetite really is gone. You have to make yourself eat. If you don't you will put all of your weight back on. I have lost several inches. I went from a size 16 to a size 12. I'm happy and good luck to everyone. There is hope.

phentermine: I've been taking phentermine since January. I wanted my health back on track so my doctor recommended this drug. I have been working out 4 times a week for an hour. I was 260lbs and am now 212lbs. Doctor still wants me to get down to at least 170lbs so he can take my off some of my medicines and keep me in maintenance program for about 9 months. I drink lots of water, count my calories and exercise. No complaints, just happy my health is much better.

phentermine: I started taking Phentermine 6 weeks ago. I have only lost 6 lbs. However, I feel like I'm on an emotional roller-coaster and I'm not sure if it is because of the medication. Some days I just want to cry for no reason at all. It also makes me sleepy. Not jittery. I have always had trouble sleeping so I can't say it has caused my insomnia. It does make you not hungry though. I have to remind myself to eat. Sex drive seems to be disappearing too.

phentermine: Started taking Adipex a week ago. Cut out all caffiene, sugar, and alcohol. I've been working out as well. I have not lost one pound. Very frustrating. I take half of a 37.5 tablet. Just left message with my doctor maybe taking the whole tablet will help. Just need to lose the last 20 pounds. One good thing my energy is up which is confusing why I can't lose the weight.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started taking phentermine in May 2008. I was 5'2 and 185lbs. By July 2008 I was down to 166lbs, as of March 2009 I am 140lbs. I feel wonderful. This drug for me was a life saver. Lately I've been using phentermine every other day just to 'maintain' but a good suggestion for those at the point were their scale number won't seem to budge any further, stop taking pill for 3-5 days. You'll drop weight quickly once you restart again. My only side effects are dry mouth and occasional jitters.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I started on February 6 and today is March 5 and when I started I weighed 197lbs. I am now 173lbs, of course I have been exercising like crazy. I walk 3x a week for 4 miles on a track. Other days I get on my treadmill or stairmaster and I do squats everyday to firm up the loose skin from the weight loss. I can honestly say this is a miracle pill. The only thing is that I have problems sleeping. I have not had a good nights sleep since I started taking them and my skin has been breaking out. I only drink water but sometimes I get an urge for some juice or half a soda just for the thrill. I eat fruit all throughout the day and maybe 2x week I will eat a meal for dinner but I still don't eat much of that. I just crave real food.

MY DOCTOR MADE ME DROP 15 lbs BEFORE SHE GAVE ME THE PRESCRIPTION DUE TO THE FACT WHEN YOU STOP TAKING THE PILL IF YOU DO NOT HAVE GOOD EATING HABITS YOU WILL GAIN YOUR WEIGHT BACK AND SOME. THE FIRST THREE DAYS I DID NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT FOOD BUT I AM STARTING TO FEEL LIKE I WANT TO EAT AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN FEELING DIZZY SOME PARTS OF THE DAY. I AM GOING TO GIVE THIS THE 30 DAY TRIAL BUT I AM PRAYING IT WORKS.

phentermine: I started phentermine on February 13th. I started at 230lbs and now weigh 204lbs. This pill is a miracle for me. I've had six children and the last was a c-section and at 28yrs old I just couldn't lose the weight. My goal is to get to 150lbs, what I weighed before all the children. A note to everyone the pill won't do it all by itself. At some point you will need to exercise and start watching what you eat. After the first day I've had no side effects except for dry mouth.

phentermine: I started out taking the generic of Adipex but I didn't stick with the guidelines the doctor gave me (quit your pop, exercise) so I only lost about 5 pounds in the month I took it. I also kept forgetting to take the pill but I'm going again tomorrow with my mom to try again. But on a positive proof story, my aunt lost about 28 lbs. in her first month and has lost at least sixty pounds since September or August of 2008. However, she never quit her pop and didn't exercise until recently. How on earth did she lose all that weight??? I'm quitting soda until I reach my goal weight, and then I'll drink it only in moderation. I've also gotten a head start on watchng what I eat, by cutting out fried things and packing my lunch for school.

phentermine: I was really over-weight when younger at 185 pounds. I dropped down to 140 pounds on my own with working out and eating healthy. At 26 years I went up recently to about 150 lbs and could not lose the weight again. I started taking phentermine 30mg on 2/10/09 and have already lost 10 lbs. First I thought it might be excess water weight. Either way it really helps you think about what you are eating and how much. You get full faster too. Clothes fit better already. I have a hard time sleeping as it is, but I don't think the pill made it worse, just get really thirsty and dry mouth, however, at least drinking a lot of water is good for you. I didn't get the high energy everyone is talking about, but my sister did.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I agree this product will make you drop the pounds. I took it a few years ago to lose weight after having a baby. In 6 weeks I lost 17 lbs. I have gained that wieght back plus more. I've decided to try it again. I have so much energy I can't sit still. The down side is I can't concentrate. I'm very moody. I can't fall asleep for at least an hour after going to bed. Sometimes I can feel my heart beating to fast. If I don't start showing serious weight loss I may stop taking it because of all the side effects.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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!

phentermine: I've been using phentermine to lose the remainder of my baby weight. It's been 2 weeks and I have lost 14lbs I do exercise and already eat right but after I lost the first 50lbs, I turned to this for a plateau breaker it broke my plateau and its helping me get back within navy standards with nothing to worry about. I recommend this to anyone who fully understands the effects of this controlled drug and has a very good understanding of healthy eating and the importance of exercise. Please note that this is a temporary medication - it is not meant to be used past a 12 week period during this time you are supposed to learn how to make healthier lifestyle choices.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I have been trying lose weight since I had my son two years ago. I worked out with no results. I have been taking Adipex for two and a half weeks and I have lost 13 lbs. I had a big burst of energy the first day I took Adipex, but could not sleep that night. The next day I did not have any side effects or burst of energy. The only problem I still have is the dry mouth. This has been a miracle drug.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I am 41 years old and have been taking phentermine as of September 2, 2008 to December 20, 2008. I have lost 35 pounds. It has been a huge blessing in my life. I went from a size 20 pants and 2x or 3x tops to a size 10 pants and from large to medium tops. It is awesome. It has been a great experience but be sure to see a doctor before taking this medication. The side effects I experienced were dry mouth (I chewed sugar-free gum all of the time and drank lots of water) and constipation. It seems to get better after being on the pill for awhile. Energy (treadmill 5 to 6 times a week and get this - I love it). I'm taking a three week break right now. I'll let you know how it goes. Good luck.

phentermine: I am a 38-year-old mother of 2 and weighed 241 pounds and started using phentermine on August 12. I was extremely unhappy with my appearance AND my health. I had high blood pressure and always felt tired. I see my doctor every month and can't wait to be weighed in. Today I weigh 194 lbs - and plan to continue to lose another 35 or so at least. My blood pressure has dropped to normal levels and I've begun a regular exercise program. I've had to buy all new clothes and I even started to exercise with the dream of fitting into a bikini by summer 2009. My family is amazed and I receive comments every day about how great I look now. I went from a 20W to my current size 14. Size 8 here I come!

phentermine: I am a registered nurse and I have been taking phentermine for 6 weeks. My goal was to lose 28-30 pounds in 3 months. Instead, I have lost 21 pounds in about 6 weeks! I am convinced that the 'drug' has been a huge help in getting me over the hump, getting started on weight loss. However, I realize that food choices have to become a lifestyle change that I will live with, or the weight loss will reverse. I do not intend to continue with the drug after the current month. I hope that by eliminating the empty calories (simple sugars, starches, etc) from my diet, I will be able to maintain a healthy weight for the long term. Its important to keep protein snacks on hand to prevent hunger during the day, and to keep up my metabolism.

phentermine: I took phentermine for a month and lost 28lbs. IN A MONTH!! Talk about killing your appetite. My family was getting worried because I never wanted to eat. I had to remind myself to eat at 6:00. I told them not to worry because this is what I wanted (to not sit around and think about food all day). People are talking calories this and work-out that, but on phentermine, you automatically exercise because you have this amazing amount of energy that just keeps you going and keeping your mind off of food. It works and I love it.

phentermine: I started using Phentermine since 11/17/08. I weighed in at 330lb and on 12/13/08 I returned to the doctor's for a follow up appointment and weighed in at 310lbs. In less than a month I lost 20lbs! I was very excited about this! I must say I have been going to the gym 4-5 days a week, and I have changed my eating habbits a little as well! Phentermine works, but as my doctor says you have to be will to do some work yourself to see great results! I recommend this if you are overwight and have had trouble losing weight!

phentermine: I love Phentermine. I started taking it in January of 2006 (losing weight was my New Year's Resolution). I took it off and on that whole year, and began working out. I lost 70 pounds, and now, two years later, I've kept it off without using it. Love it.

phentermine: I've been taking Phentermine for 2 weeks. For about one month before that I was taking Bontril (Phendimetrazine). I liked the Bontril but it didn't curb my appetite as well as Phentermine does. I try to stick to 1100 cals/day but I do some calorie cycling now and that way I'll go above 1100 so my body doesn't think it's being starved long-term. I hope that will help prevent a rapid gain when I go off the medicines.
Since starting these various medications I've lost about 11 pounds (from 200 to 189 as of this morning). The Tanita scale at the clinic indicates that my water composition has remained about the same while fat percentage has decreased and muscle mass has increased. And I'm not even exercising, so that's pretty cool.

phentermine: This is my 2nd time taking this and the first time I lost 15 lbs in the first month and couldn't loose anything else. Now with my second time I have lost 8 lbs in two weeks. It is true it works better to take it for a 3 week period then a break for a week or 2. I eat 4 x 400 calorie meals a day and excerise 3-5 days a week.

phentermine: I started taking phentermine 5 days ago, and have lost 7 pounds. As several others have mentioned, I also have constipation. I think its simply because I am eating 1/5 of what I was eating prior to taking the pill. I am sleeping fine, however, I do sleep less. I have more energy and am a bit irritable.

phentermine: I love this medicine. It has no side effects and after a week or two you WILL lose weight. The only thing I will say is that you should take it for 3 weeks on and then one or two weeks off. Once you quit and start back, it is just like when you began. It is a miracle drug.

phentermine: I am a 25 year old mother of 2. I first weighed in at 227 lbs as of November 5th. Now I weigh 209 lbs. I do recommend it but don't allow yourself to believe others stories. Generally you will lose one pound or three pounds a WEEK not 15 or 10. Don't go out to eat all the time.

phentermine: I started this supplement October 29th. The first few days were a little rough for me. I had bad headaches, dizziness, nausea, and low energy. I worked out some kinks. I have to be sure I don%u2019t take the medicine on an empty stomach. I usually have a protein bar just before time to take it or just after. The Nausea, headaches and dizziness have subsided and my energy is picking up. I have not weighed in yet but I feel confident that I have lost some weight. This is a good program; I have known several people that have successfully lost weight with it. Just hang in there, the first week may be a little rough but it will get better. Also I have not had any trouble sleeping at night and I feel fabulous in the mornings. I have not overslept since starting the medicine and that is normally a daily thing for me.

phentermine: I've been on Phentermine for 3 weeks now. I started off weighing 231 lbs. Now, I'm down to 214 lbs. I've not experienced the side effects reported. I have an active job which zaps my energy, which may be why my sleeping habits have not changed. However, I can say that I've been more productive at work, and on the weekends, I have about a 2 mile jog's worth of energy to burn.

phentermine: I've been on this for 4 weeks and have dropped 14 pounds. I am so happy. The worst side effect for me has been the dry mouth. I've been chewing a lot of sugar-free gum. It's worth it to me, though. It has suppressed my appetite. The world doesn't revolve around me stuffing my face now. I have more energy to take the dogs out for walks. Just can't see me dragging all this weight around for the rest of my natural days.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I've been taking Adipex for 2 weeks tomorrow and I am down 10 pounds. It controls my appetite and I haven't craved sweets at all. I eat what I want but I just don't eat as much of it. I get full pretty quickly. I am teaching myself how to eat so that I won't gain the weight back. I have had some insomnia. I also get a weird taste in my mouth. I've noticed an increase in energy. My clothes are already looser.

phentermine: I have been taking Phentermine since 09/18/08 at 191 pounds. Honestly, I haven't weighed in yet, but I feel terrific. My energy level is way high. I'm a 40 year old college professor, and have been used to taking naps before working at night (I would always be grumpy if I missed my naps). Since I'm now on phentermine, I am a more positive person, alert, super-alert. I hate washing dishes, pots, and now I have so much energy and willingness to be more in the kitchen and cleaning. I sit with my son to help him with his homework. Now I find time to do stuff instead of "relaxing" or "recharging" my batteries in my bed. This pill is amazing. It has changed my lifestyle so far. I do have some difficulty sleeping and dry mouth, but it's great.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I took this medicine about 3 years ago and I went from 230 lbs and then at the end of the 3rd month I weighed 140 lbs. I was so excited that I had lost the extra 90 lbs that I had been carrying around since 6th grade that I had better self esteem more confidence in myself and became a stronger person in general. Then In 2007 I went through a nasty divorce and I gained all the weight back. I'm 219 lbs now. I am going to get back on the medicine because I know that it works. I highly recommend this diet pill.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

Phentride (phentermine): I am 5'3" and have Chronic Fatigue and Polycystic Ovary Syndrome and both of these caused me to gain up to 175 pounds. I have tried everything to lose weight and none helped. I started taking phentermine 4-2008 and I have gone from a size 12 to a size 9/10 in 2 months. It does give you a little energy boost, I noticed I wasn't craving sweets anymore and I wasn't binge eating. The phentermine gave me control over what I eat and when. I now make healthier choices, because I want to be healthy. There have been days that I would forget to eat, that is how strong phentermine is. At first I had a hard time with the side effects of headaches, stomach pain and dizziness, so I only took a 1/2 of pill. Good Luck.

(phentermine): I have been taking Adipex for 2 weeks. Starting weight of 185 lbs and I have lost 8 lbs. I walk 30 minutes in the morning and 45 minutes in the afternoon 7 days per week. It really has decreased my appetite. I eat a healthy breakfast, cut back on my portion size for lunch and supper and eat nothing past 6:00 pm. I have not craved sweets and some food does not even appeal to me. I want to lose a total of 50 lbs. I do worry if I will gain the weight back once I stop taking the medicine.

phentermine: I started taking Adipex 2 weeks ago yesterday and I went for my weekly weigh in and I am down a total of 8 pounds. I was told if I can get through the first week I would be fine. Well the insomnia was killer the first. I wasn't even getting to sleep until around 3:30 or 4:00 a.m. and then getting up at 7 or 8. Things are much better now. I am in bed around midnight which is normal for me. I love how it boost my energy. You can eat off my floors, my house is so clean. I have not had any other side effects. Here's hoping to even more success....

I started at 228lbs and now I weigh 215lbs the medication does work but I will start exercising and eating right with it and I will let you know how far that takes me. I truly couldn't have done this much without this great pill.

My last doctors visit was Friday July 25 and so far I have lost a total of 36.5 lbs. This pill is great but it helps you become stronger towards the problem and if you exercise you have a better chance of not gaining all the weight back. The doctor told me that patients generally lose about 14 lbs the first month 12 the second and about 8 the third.

(phentermine): Adipex-P really works as an appetite suppressant/metabolism booster. I really loved the energy. I've used it several times over the last 12 years and have found that the weight gradually returns when you stop using it. You have to permanently change your eating habits and add daily serious exercise to sustain any loss.

I've been trying to lose the weight with a nutritionist and through exercise. I even ran and trained for a 1/2 marathon in 2006 and 2007. The lowest I could ever get was 150 lbs and if I quit running long distances, the weight comes back. I started taking phentermine on July 2 and have lost about 10 pounds.

phentermine: I have been on this drug since June 1, 2008. There were two weeks I had to stop taking it, so to date (7/17/08) I have been taking it for a month. I have lost 17 lbs as of today. I have tried everything, but this is the first time that I finally feel like I am in control. It is easy to say no now to junk food. And I get full very quickly. I have not changed my diet yet, just portions. My next step is to start exercising more regularly and start on a healthy meal plan.

Just to let you know I also do light exercise about 2-3 times a week and I have changed my eating habits to center around proteins which also keep you full as well as the pills. I do eat out like 1-2 times a week and still get whatever I want but I immediately wrap up 1/2 my food for the next meal or next day and if I go to a fast food place I get a happy meal instead of a regular meal.

(phentermine): I started out at 200lbs and within two months went down to 170lbs. During the 3rd month I went down to 162lbs. I feel somewhat stuck at this point with the weight loss going much slower. I do however notice a big appetite change when I take the pill and don't. The insomnia goes away in a week or two. The earlier you take it the better. It's by far my miracle drug. I love the extra energy to help keep up with the kids and house work. I should have started this years ago.

I started going to the gym and within a few weeks found out I was pregnant. Well my daughter is now 7. I am heavier now than before I got pregnant. 100 lbs heavier. I was borderline diebetic so I am taking this medicine again so I can spend fun time with my daughter and not become diabetic. I love it.

phentermine: Through diet I was able to slowly lose about 35 pounds over about 8 months. When I hit a plateau and was not losing any more, I started this medicine- and eventually had enough energy and motivation to start exercising again. I have lost over 60 pounds in the last 7 months and am getting ready to wean off of it - I have no ill effects while taking it.

(phentermine): Adipex-P (Phentermine) is awesome. Not only does it take the hunger away, it boosts energy. I've been on Adipex-P and went from 196 to 135 lbs in 4 months, with only 30 minutes of exercise 5 days a week, plus the significantly reduced diet that this pill allows. It made losing weight easy.

phentermine: I started taking phentermine on March 14th at 335lbs. Today June 16th, I weigh 308lbs. The pill is great for supressing your apppetite. When I first started taking the pill, I had to make myself eat because I felt no desire for food all day long. I pretty much eat whatever I want and still lose weight. I believe that the lack of desire has caused a change in my portions that has been the main difference. I suffer from insomnia and anxiety but it could be because I have a lot of job stress lately.

(phentermine): I started taking Adipex 3/6/08, I was 182 lbs. By 6/3/08, I was down to 152 lbs. 30 lb loss is great. I have 7 lbs to go. The program is great, if you follow your diet plan and stay hydrated. 200cal.for breakfast at 7am, 350cal. lunch at 12pm, and 450cal. for dinner at 6pm absolutely no snacking in between. My only problem was constipation. Suddenly ceasing the medicine may cause side effects. Overall I love Adipex. Love it, Love it, Love it!

phentermine: I just started taking Adipax on May 19 and today is the 9th of June and I have lost 23 lbs. I also included a diet of 1200 cals a day and 45 minutes of exercise. I could not be any happier with the results. I have had no side effects.

(phentermine): I've been using adipex for exactly two weeks and have lost two inches around my waste. I weighed 172 lbs when I started. I have not yet checked my weight because I don't want to discourage myself. I'm only going to check my weight at my monthly doctor's visits.

Fastin (phentermine): Phentermine has worked very well for me and my own personal situation. I was formerly anorexic/bulimic with a habit of severe calorie restriction, phentermine has worked amazingly. My metabolism went into hibernation after 5 yrs of damage & I gained 180lbs post rehab. By taking phentermine daily, I have the metabolism of a nomal 22 year old girl. I lost 30lbs/90 days initially. Now I'm losing 30lbs/month. Occasional moments of feeling weird/adrenaline rush is worth it.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: Out of all the diet pills I have tried, phentermine has been the best yet. I have been on it for two weeks now and have lost 18 lbs. I weighed in at 194 lbsmand now am 176 lbs. I have energy now that can last me for days, I always feeling like running or doing something extremely active. I've noticed that I'm not as hungry as I used to be. My goal is to lose 50 pounds before or by September of 2008. I believe that I can reach this goal way before that time comes, if I keep it up.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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.

phentermine: I have been taking phentermine for 3 weeks, and have lost 10-15 lbs. It has increased my energy level substantially. I went off of it for 3 days and saw a little bit of a difference with my appetite and energy, but also had tubal ligation during that period. I have not noticed any side effect last longer than a few days. Great appetite suppresant.

phentermine: After 2 years of very slowly losing pounds to reduce blood pressure,doc prescribed this drug.I reached my half-way weight loss goal(13lbs) after a month taking it daily.I stopped taking it and kept exercising and gained about 4lbs back.Doctor advised I keep routine and take drug for 2-3 days if I gain a few pounds. This drug was extremely encouraging after being stuck in a weight loss rut.Drink tons of water,you do not want to dehydrate on this! Be very aware of mood changes and addiction.

(phentermine): I started Adipex in 2006 weighing in at 215lbs and used it for 2 months, got down to 185lbs, which is less 30 lbs. I stopped taking it and gained 15lbs, give or take. I started it again 2 days ago at 196lbs and weighed in today at 189lbs. The positive thing is I crave water, and since I am never hungry I eat healthy because I don't want to eat anything.

Adipex-P (phentermine): 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!

phentermine: I've been using adipex for a week now and it really works.
Normally I would eat snacks and top of snacks but with it you really have to make yourself eat. The first two days I had a headache and I can not sleep past 2:30 am. I'm walking and doing a lot around my home.

phentermine: I have been taking this for over 1 year every day. I love it!
Pros.
I went from 289 to 175 that is like 115 lbs lost!!!!
I feel so much better about myself and my apprearance!
I have never had so much energy and been so productive in my life!
Cons.
You really wake up several times in the middle of the night, so you do not sleep enough but you get use to it.
Exercise is very important along with changing your eating habits.
The first few days your are kinda in a dreamlike state.

phentermine: I have been taking this pill since April 21, 2008 when I weighed myself in at 191 lbs. On April 23rd I weighed in at 187.4 lbs and today on the 25th I weigh in at 184.7 lbs. The weight is coming off real well but my concern is the weight is coming off too fast. The pill is great. Overall my goal is 170 lbs I will be there in about 2 weeks if the weight keeps coming off like this - I will update!

Fastin (phentermine): When I started taking this medicine in December along with Metformin and Simvastin I lost 66 lbs. I started at 306lbs and now I weigh 240lbs. I am unsure if the drug is having any effect on me any longer - I will know when I see my doctor again. Perhaps I am just at a wall for the time being. Anyhow I think it works great.

phentermine: When I started taking Phentermine I weighed 183 lbs. Within 4 months I got down to 148. It is crucial that you take the time while on Phentermine to change your life style. Learn to cook healthy meals...work with a nutritionist, and a personal trainer if you can swing it. Change needs to come from within you!

phentermine: I have been taking phentremine for 2 weeks now and in the first week I lost 9 1/2 lbs. I absolutely love this pill. It has helped me control my cravings, so that I don't feel hungry anymore. I am also on a diet plan, where I eat no bread, rice,crackers,potatoes,carrots,brown rice,tortillas, pita...etc. Basically anything that has a lot of starch. I have energy and feel really happy, I have been doing squats and lunges, although this week I have slacked, but I have been faithful to my diet.

phentermine: I have been on Phentermine for 1 month and as of Feb 27 I have lost 15lbs. One of things I have really come to realize is that Phen will curb your appetite but it is VITAL that you learn how to eat properly and incorporate exercise into your daily routine. Not only will this speed up your weight loss whilst on Phen developing good habits is the only way to maintain your new weight once you finish.

After 3 weeks The medication no longer supressed my appatite but because I could'nt eat for the 3 weeks my stomache had shrank & I'Ve been able to maintain my 130 pound weight for 2 years.

phentermine: While this medication may seem useful & effective in the beginning, be careful. I've been taking this medication off & on for approx 10 years. I've found the longer I'm on the medication, the more addicted (mentally & physically) I am to it. I love the energetic, invincible feeling that it gives me in the beginning, however, I've found that I am more irritable & moody now too. I have gotten to the point where I feel I can't function without it, although it's lost its suppressant effect.

phentermine: I have been using phentermine for approx. 3 months and I've lost 42 lbs. I look and feel a lot better, and am working on losing another 40. I watch my diet and exercise. I take a day off every once in awhile and have whatever I want, but I make sure to get right back on track the next day. Pentermine is not a miracle pill, you still have to work at changing your lifestyle.

phentermine: I have been using phentermine for approximately 6 weeks and have lost 15 pounds. Although the product is working great. I have experience severe constipation with phentermine. Even with drinking a lot of water and a high fiber diet. My dr. has had to prescribe a laxitive for me. I guess you have to take the bad with the good. Or like me, I gave up phentermine and have been working on losing weight without diet medication.

phentermine: I have used phentermine periodically over the past year. It controls my carb cravings, while no other over the counter diet pill even comes close. It also seems to prevent migraines that I have suffered with since I was 11 years old. I am grateful for this drug and hope it continues to be made available.
