1. Are you taking
30mg or 37.5mg
30mg. Here's a chance to make a correction...I thought I was taking the
37.5's
2. Where did you buy your phen from
local pharmacy...cheap! ...after finding the Net stores shut down, and a lot of whining to my internist.
3. What time of the day do you take your phen
Before breakfast
4. At what time do you notice the effects wearing off
Depends. Some days I don't notice until late at night. Other days I need a little will power too, especially if its been a bad day (emotional eating)...or there is something too yummy for words in the fridge
5. How much weight did you lose in December (just december)
I've lost 22lbs or more since May 1st. (started May 1, first weigh in was the 25th.)
6. If you have taken 30's did you like the 37.5's better or if you have taken 37.5's did you like the 30's better, answer N/A if you have not tried both.
I honestly did not notice the difference...that's why I wrote mistakenly that I take the 37.5's. I've been on both, even 37.5 twice daily by prescription. I was lucky to get the 30's, once daily, and that's been my attitude. I have to lose weight before my doc even thinks of refilling, so I'm sticking pretty close to the plan (with a few slip ups)
I like the phen in pill form, so that you can break it up, as Jessegirl does. My prescription comes in capsule form, and I'm not as happy with it for that reason.
7. At what time of the day do you notice hunger start
hey, I could
always be hungry. For me, I don't think there's a majic pill yet that wipes that clean, except for Preludin, which I've never seen anyone prescribe in 3 decades...makes you manic...too much phen in one day does the same to me.
Phen taken as prescribed, at least gives you a
chance to turn your attention to other things. It also over-rides the weak feeling that might result from cutting back hard on food intake.
8. How long have you been taking phen
1993, but not continually
