Hey! Is it normal to feel sharp stomach pains, lack of appetite, nausea ? My dr wants me to eat 1500 cal a day and 500 cal 2 a week. Today I barely made the minimum... and I'm scared to be constantly nauseous at work..

I just started with Phentermine. My doctor suggested I take 2 stool softeners every morning with my pill to avoid cramping. I have nausea after I eat and it dissipates after I drink water.

Yes, Stomachhurts; these should slowly go away the stomach problems and nausea etc also tries to drink more water and take the medication you can do this almost everyone loses these side effects.

Stomachhurts; This part about gaining is just what I have heard some gain then start losing due to water etc. if you don't lose that by tomorrow I think you should check in with the doctor just to make sure. have a good day but always best to be safe than sorry. hope the other side effects start to go soon.
