For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started phentermine Saturday 09/05/09 (Labor Day weekend). Day 1 I took the pill, leaving me with a morning and afternoon full of energy and a loss of appetite. Day 2 I had lots of energy and didn't eat my usual meals. Labor Day (Monday) I had a small appetite. I only had a piece of steak that was the size of my palm, 2 bites of macaroni and cheese, and 2 bites of collards. Day 4 I took the pill after 10 AM, so I was sort of hungry throughout the day. I haven't weighed myself, but I feel like it is working. I will keep you posted."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "So far, I've been on this medicine for 10 days. Pretty impressive, as I've lost about 8 lbs already. Cardio is important, so I've managed to do it about 7 out of the 10 days. The first day I used it, I felt as if I could run a marathon. Since then, I've lost the cravings and most of my appetite, but still manage to eat right and in small portions. This stuff is a Godsend, really."

Phentermine for Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I just started Adipex on 8/20/10. I haven't weighed yet, but I will on 9/02. I will post my results. I currently weigh 195 lbs, and I'm 5' tall. I had my daughter about 2 years ago, and the weight never left. I kind of jumped on in. I bought about 10 bottles of water at 8 oz, so I can drink them daily. I start walking in the morning and cardio in the evening. I will keep that up for two weeks to see results. If my routine works, I will keep going. The first day I took it in the morning about 30 minutes before I ate a bowl of cereal, and I wasn't hungry for the rest of the day. I actually forgot to eat. Day 2 was the same way, and day 3 I had breakfast and made myself eat a light dinner before 7. I love how it curbs my appetite. That's progress. Will repost on 9/2. Stay tuned."

Phentermine for Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I just started Adipex-P 37.5 mg on March 6th, 2011. I am in the military and am a single mom of two. I work and go to school full-time, so it's hard for me to work out every day even though I'm supposed to. I have never really had trouble losing weight until I started working night shift in May. I would only eat one meal a day, but since it was late, I gained the weight. I am 5'5" and weighed 184 lbs before I was put on this pill. The first day I took it was right after the doctor's appointment. By 5 pm, I had only eaten one piece of ham. I bought a salad after I took the pill and tried to eat it when I got home at 6 and couldn't because I had no urge to want to eat. It's Wednesday now, and I've lost 4 lbs already."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I am a 30-year-old female, 5'6" and 249 lbs. I just started phentermine today. Already, I feel suppressed appetite and tons of energy. I was 115 lbs at 17. I started taking the Depo birth control shot and gained 50+ lbs in just a year and could never get it off. I got pregnant with my first child at 22, gained 40+ lbs with her, started taking A.C.E. in 2013 at 26 years old, and lost 60 lbs in 4 months, then I got pregnant with my son and gained 50 lbs. Then, in March 2016, I quit smoking and gained even more. No matter what I do in between, nothing works. My doctor believes this will work. We'll see!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have been taking phentermine for a week now, and I feel much better. It has curbed my appetite, and I am not sleeping as much. I used to be so tired all day. I am feeling a little discouraged, however, because I have seen all these reviews of people losing like 7 pounds in a week/two weeks. I have not lost even one pound so far, even on an 800-calorie diet. I am hoping that after a couple more weeks, I see a difference. I may update in the future if I remember!"

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "Second day taking it. Today I felt weird, no energy, just concentrated on things more. No appetite, but made myself eat something small and healthy every three hours. I have 110 lbs to lose, I hope this helps. I walk at night after work and gym in the morning for an hour."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I have started my diet pills in December 2014. My start weight was 272 pounds. My goal is to be 150 pounds according to this height and weight chart. I've lost 6 pounds in December and another 6 pounds in January. I work out to these workout videos at night, and I'm cleaning throughout the day at home to exercise as much as I can. I also drink lots of water throughout the day as well. The side effects I have with it are dry mouth and no appetite, but I make myself eat little at a time. I'm very happy with the results so far with the diet pill. Nothing else worked for me, and I'm very happy to have found a diet pill to help me see results. I have lost 14 pounds so far. I've been on them for 3 months now. I will update in a couple of months."

For Weight Loss (Obesity/Overweight) "I started taking phentermine 37.5 today. I have read a lot of comments here, but I don't think I have read of anyone else taking topiramate with the phen. This is my first time on either drug and am pretty impressed so far. I have had little to no appetite today and have had to force myself to eat. I am diabetic, so I am no stranger to carrying a bottle of water. Any suggestions to help me get the most out of phen would be greatly appreciated."
