For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "This pill works! I do advise that you eat breakfast, wait 30 mins, and drink water throughout the day. If you don't get hungry, eat something wholesome. My experience with headache and mood swings was due to me not feeling hungry, yet my body still needed fuel. Listen to your body! I'm at a weight that I'm happy with. I do exercise, it's my therapy. One seventy-three from 205! Also, it helps with my blood pressure. Eating is so much easier. I can think about what I need to prepare versus just grabbing the first snack, not so good choice that would satisfy me. Know your body, breathe, don't overthink, be happy. This is coming from me! It helped along with small positive changes. Peace!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started taking Adipex on a Saturday, which was September 1, 2018. I went to the doctor and weighed in on September 26, 2018. I have lost 15 pounds. I weighed in at 335 lbs and now weigh 320 lbs. I will go back on October 26, 2018, and I will definitely let you know. I haven’t had any side effects at all! I mean none!! I walk 5 days a week for 30 minutes, nothing else. I am very happy, and I am starting to feel better about myself."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "This product is the real deal. I lost 20 pounds in 1 month. The first week, I felt weird, like I was high. The energy is great. I never exercised because I was overwhelmed with my job & school. And I ate what I wanted to. I only drink lots of water and sometimes with Crystal Light, no sweets. Everyone wants to know what I am doing. I recommend this to everyone that needs a boost to drop the pounds. I started at 188, today I'm 162. That's a loss of 26 pounds in 5 weeks. Next week I will start exercising."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Lost 45 lbs on this medicine and couldn't be happier. This pill works. I have kept the weight off for 6 months now and desire to lose another 15 - 20 lbs, so I'm going back on it. My belly has shrunk! 5 ft 2 started at 212 lbs, now 167 lbs. Some people that haven't seen me in a while do a double take. Counting my calories, exercising 5 days a week, keeping a food diary, and drinking lots of H2O helps too. Good luck all!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started taking Adipex early February 2009 weighing in at 288 lbs. Exactly one month later, I weighed in at 268 lbs. Now, on April 3, I am weighing in at 255 lbs, only taking half a pill every other day. Sometimes I go a few days without taking it. I started out with a 30-day supply, and two 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 33 lbs 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."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started Dec. 15th, 2012, and this has been my lifesaver! I am 5'9. I was 252 lbs when I weighed in. I couldn't believe it. I had never weighed that much. I used to be an athlete growing up, and after 4 kids, my metabolism slowed down to nothing. Within the 1st month, I lost 22 lbs! I had lost 40 lbs by month 3. In total, I have lost 57 lbs in 6 months. I have been allowed to take it continuously, but I personally tapered it off so I wouldn't become dependent on it. I still have a month's worth of pills left over, and I'm still losing! I walk for exercise, but nothing major. Gum helps for dry mouth, and I drink a ton of water and eat off a small salad plate. My goal is 160 lbs. I hope to reach that by August!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "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 (e.g., 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."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "My starting weight was 285 lbs. After 3 months, I am 245 lbs. I take 37.5 mg in the morning and 15 mg around 2 pm. I will admit that in the beginning, I was not eating as healthy as I should have been. Now I don't crave the sugar and fats that I used to. My once favorite food, Philly cheesesteaks, are only mildly appetizing to me. I have to remind myself to eat during the day. The only problem is that if I stay up too late, I do start to crave junk food, carbs mostly."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "So I have always been a big girl! I have 3 kids and with each pregnancy there was added weight that just carried over, and you know how the story goes... I pushed myself and my wants and needs to the side and took care of everyone but myself. The more weight I put on, the more depressed I got. I got to 280 lbs!!!! My body was in constant pain and discomfort, and I knew I had to stop and do something about it. I started the pills last year and lost a total of 125 lbs!!! Not just the pills, but I started the gym, did zumba 3 times a week, and started eating good. The pills aren't the magic fix. They just help you, kind of like a kick start. Sure, I had side effects!!!! But nothing that would outweigh being close to 300 lbs."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "In Jan of this year I weighed 170.0. I had some gallbladder issues that ended up with it being taken out and caused some weight gain. It is now May and my last weigh-in was 141.4. I love my Adipex and I would recommend it for anyone. I have had two children and so my body has been through the ringer. I love the energy it gives me and the appetite suppression. I also like that it makes you thirsty and the only thing that helps is water. I am now a water drinker and I drink well over the daily recommendation. I love this!!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "My last post was in February 2014. To sum up my experience: starting weight: 161.4, height 5'3. Received two total bottles of 37.5mg pills, which lasted me from February '14 to June '14. I would halve pills, skip days, etc. if I felt the need, so these lasted quite a while. My lowest weight once all was said and done: 141.2 on June 20th, 20.2 lbs lost. Today, Jan 30, 2015, I weigh 146.2. I am happy that in 7 months' time I've only managed to gain 5 lbs (AND after the holidays, thank you very much!). This pill is great, but it's not a miracle. It also won't last forever as you can only have 3 refills a year if you meet the BMI requirement for medical weight loss. Taught me portion control."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have tried all the fad diets to no avail. I've tried over-the-counter weight loss pills and nothing has worked since Stacker 3 original formula was banned. I was told I would only get Adipex for 3 months. My third check-up is tomorrow, and I've lost 50 lbs so far. The pill is starting to feel like it's losing its effectiveness. Tomorrow I am going to start a 10-day break in hopes that when I start back up, it will be as effective as the first month. I've got another 40 to go, so hopefully it works. It's been great, though. 50 lbs in 2 months when nothing else helped before is very impressive. It's nice hearing all the compliments on the weight loss too."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started Adipex (phentermine) on June 26th, 2012. I weighed 239 lbs, and I am 5'4, a 42-year-old female. I had the typical spare tire that women have a tendency to get over 40. I was obese and in danger of getting a number of diseases that would have affected the rest of my life, such as diabetes, hypertension, and heart disease. I have come a long way. I am down to 178 lbs as of today. I am beginning to see a slowdown in results. I need to increase my exercise as I only lost 6 lbs last month. I did, however, manage to lose 11 pounds over Thanksgiving and Christmas. The doctor is extremely pleased with my progress, as is my husband. He has a new wife. I have never felt better. I have dropped 10 sizes. 28 pounds to goal. Go me."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started on 8/24/15. As of today, 9/6, I have lost 10 lbs in just under 2 weeks. I only take half a pill, which is just fine for me. I have very little appetite, I force myself to eat. I'm staying under 1200 calories per day, more like 800. My cravings for sweets are gone! This is strange for me because I love sweets. I'm not eating any bread or drinking any soda. Lots of water, fruits, veggies, salads, and protein. I have not exercised yet but plan to soon. I could not sleep the first few days and dry mouth is starting to kick in, it's tolerable. My goal is to lose 60 lbs by the end of the year."

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!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I took Adipex (37.5) from February 2012-April 2012, and in that span of time, I went from 300 lbs down to 170 lbs. That is a loss of 130 lbs. I hardly ate anything but grilled chicken, fruit, and Powerade. I walked at least 2 miles every day. I got pregnant at the end of May 2012, so I had to stop taking it. My baby is now 2 years and 5 months old, and my weight has gone back up to a very uncomfortable 240 lbs. I still exercise regularly but not as often as I should. I have an appointment in 3 weeks to get Adipex again, and I am hoping and praying that I have the same results as before. This is a great aid in losing weight for anybody who struggles with losing weight by diet alone. Wish me luck...will update in 90 days!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I took Adipex two years ago and lost 70 pounds! I'm 5'11" and went from size 20 to size 10/12. Don't let that 1-2 pounds per week loss without exercising fool you into thinking you don't have to. You should at least walk every day or do some sweat-producing exercise 3-4 days a week to get the most out of it. I used the seated elliptical 4-5 days a week. It's quick if you commit to exercise, water, and the meds. No eating after 8:00 pm. I've lost from 2 lbs to 21 pounds per month with exercise. I've gained 20 pounds back over the two years and am now wearing a 14. I went back on Adipex a month and a half ago and plan to get down to a 10/12 by June 30th. ;-)"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Teva changed Adipex formula (no blue dots anymore), and although they say that was the only change, these are worthless. Not only did the cost go up, but they are ineffective. I spent $600 for a 90 supply!!! I have to take 3 whole pills to get any effect, whereas the pills with blue dots, 1 to 1.5 was sufficient. All it does is make my face super hot and makes me super tired. I have called and reported it to Teva also, but nothing is being done. Not okay to do this to consumers and take advantage like this."

I no longer have dry mouth like I used to, which is great. I'll update again in about a month when I go back to the doctor. Side effects at this time are 0."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been on this medicine for nearly one week. I have lost 8 lbs since starting this medicine. I take half a dose on an empty stomach and then drink protein drinks for both breakfast and lunch. Then, I eat a light supper and have been eating about 1100 calories or less a day. I go to the gym about 3 to 4 times a week. I have noticed a change in my weight every day. I haven't had any side effects, my blood pressure has been running great. I don't experience any nausea or vomiting with this medicine while working out. I am planning on taking this medicine for 1 month and then taking a rest and starting it again."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am just over halfway through my 3-month Adipex regimen and am feeling great. For anyone struggling with weight loss, I highly recommend asking your doctor about Adipex. My physician was very quick to prescribe it as soon as I asked about it, as he could tell I did my research. I am 5'5, 25 y/o, and started at 193.5 lbs. The biggest pro about this medication is that it almost completely rid me of my uncontrollable cravings (I don't even think about chocolate anymore). With that out of the way, I am now able to more easily make healthy changes to my lifestyle. I have started eating more vegan-like and making being active part of my daily life. So far I am down 19.7 pounds. I feel like myself again!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I lost 30 pounds in less than 3 months with this drug, a sensible diet and exercise. I had started and quit a few diets before taking this medicine because I never felt satisfied after a small meal and I always wanted to snack. The first day I took it, I was shocked at my lack of interest in food. I would eat, but not with the same vigor and certainly not the same quantities. I noticed my mood was improved and that I had the energy to do things, including obsessive cleaning of my house. After several weeks of taking it, the medicine didn't seem as strong to me; however, my new eating and exercise patterns were established. Good diet starter but not a permanent solution."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I took Adipex for 6 months. My starting weight was 210.0, and my ending weight was 165.0. That was a year ago. This is my advice: #1. You may not feel like eating, but do it anyway, or you'll slow your metabolism down to a crawl and stop losing weight. Just watch what you eat! #2. Take vitamins! By the time I hit 165#, my hair was starting to fall out, I couldn't focus, and I was constantly tired - sometimes I'd nearly pass out because I didn't feel hungry and just wasn't really eating more than 500 calories a day. Even sitting still, your body burns way more than that! #3. Be prepared to gain some of that back when you come off the pill. I wasn't prepared at all, and I gained it all right back. Still, great pill!"
