I am a 32 year old mother of 2 and have not been able to get my pregrancy weight off since my last child which was THREE years ago. I have tried everything and I do mean everything. I just could not keep my appetite under control.I am also a stay at home Mom and I am around food all day. A friend of mine started going to a Dr. for B-12 shots,Phentermine and eggs,meat and cheese diet for a month then you add veggies after the month. I hesitated at first because, I am not a big meat eater. However, I was desperate well, after two weeks I lost 15lbs. of course my starting weight was 207. I was thrilled but, I started not feeling well without the carbs so, I slowly started adding veggies and some bread and boy do I feel better. I know, it will slow down my weight loss but, I would rather feel better than sick. I was taking a whole Phentermine 37.5mg tablet for the first 3 weeks. However, yesterday I cut them in half and took one in the morning and one in the afternoon and it really cut back on the heart pounding and I don't feel so wierd. I have been exercising now 3-4 times a week for about 3 months bascially doing cardio I increase my cardio by one minute each week and will continue to do so, until I reach and hour. I also, do sit-ups and lunges and push ups. I am going to stay away from the weights until I lose at least half my weight; I tend to bulk up too much with the weights and when I am so heavy it makes me feel fat. Well, I guess for now that is my story and hopefully each week I will weigh a little less and feel a little better.
