Phendiet for Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) User Reviews

"I have been using this drug for 1 month, and I have lost 11 pounds so far. I still have 20 lbs to go. I had been exercising 6 days a week, for at least 2 hours a day, with lots of cardio, and the weight wouldn't come off until I started on the Phendiet. Since starting, I reduced my exercise to weight lifting and swimming 1.5 hours a day. My only concern is feeling like my blood pressure drops and like I need iron. I meet with my doctor every 2 weeks."

"I have been using the medication for almost 3 weeks and have lost 10 lbs. I'm also doing cardio every other night for 30 minutes and dumbbell/weights every other night (but that's a fairly light routine). I'm also eating a lot of protein and have cut out simple carbs/sugar entirely. Will slowly bring those back into my diet next week. I did try the HCG diet (along with a VLCD) a few months back and lost over 20 lbs, but that was a hard diet. This is much easier to manage and doesn't intrude on your lifestyle to the same extent. Since I'm only now 12 lbs above a BMI of 25, I'm sure I won't be able to take it for much longer...maybe another 3 weeks, as I will be on the high end, but still in the 'healthy' range within 3 weeks."
