Hi I'm new to the board and figured since I check the reply's everyday and get help from this site I might as well start a diary myself. I am 5'8 and weighed 192 when I started this diet on October 22. I am on the Adkins diet because I know it works, last year at this same time I weighed 155 because I lost 35 lbs. on the Adkins diet in about 3 months and then I was maintaining that weight for the rest of the year. Vacation time came and I decided to reward myself for staying on the diet so strict for 1 whole year. I was going to eat whatever I wanted for 10 straight days while at the beach. I only gained 5 lb.s at the beach but never got back on the diet after that and here I am again a half year later and heavier than the last time. I am eating under 20 carbs and trying to stay around 1000 to 1200 calories a day which isn't hard taking Phentermine, and trying to drink around 60oz. of water a day. This is my first time trying Phentermine and it is working just great. I have been taking it for about 2 weeks and I have no side effects except the dry mouth, and the fact that I have to force myself to eat. I have the 37.5 but I only take half a pill a day. I thought I would build a tolorence up by now but I haven't. One half a pill is almost too much for me, I think I am very sensitive to amine's?? Anyway I have lost a total of 17 lbs. as of today and I feel so good, I want to start exercising but I am afraid I will stop losing, everyone here including my friend here in west virginia is exercising and not losing anything. She has been on it for 3 weeks and walks like crazy eats under 1000 calories and has lost nothing at all. She is so upset that I am losing and she isn't. She isn't on the Adkins like me and I know that is boosting my weight loss but still, 3 weeks and nothing? Well I better stop before I start to tell my whole life story. Thanks for this web site Ian, you are helping so many people.
