I was ordering once every few months from outfits like sisters, etc. It was just too expensive to renew every month. But I was not losing weight. I was saving the meds for energy to get around. (I laughed so loud when I saw the movie "Hairspray" around that time. The very plump Divine was talking about taking a diet pill so she could finish up her ironing...that was me.)

At some point my darling hubby got me Adipex! That was one hunk of chump change. Whatever place he got that from started calling every day, relentlessly.

I was always polite...they obviously did have our CC number and I didn't want trouble. Once when I said, "No thank you, I don't need Adipex this month." The foreign guy started to tell me about phen...I said, "Yes, I know, that's generic for Adipex."

He stammered something I couldn't make out. I don't know what he thought I said, but there was no calls for about a month.

Then they started up again. This time when I answered the phone I said very sweetly, "Thank you so much for calling, but I now have a doctor who prescribes it for me."

I don't know if I just lucked out on the right person, or if they just have finally stopped bugging people daily. But that seemed to work. No calls. Are they aware of the economics? With Adipex selling at $200 plus dollars a bottle, I don't think they could come up with a better deal than getting phen at $6?
(I know, as long as you have a blessed doctor who understands.)

Since my script may be very limited, I'm taking it seriously...no longer abusing. I want a lifestyle that supports my moving around with ease and fitting into nice clothing.
