You may not of lost physical weight but inches will be adapting and redistrubuting (sp*) the weight you have lost.

Fast rapid weight loss will come back on once phen is stopped being taken, so best to take things slow and steady and it should remain off a heck of a lot longer and fingers crossed for good.

thanks i needed to hear that lol it picked me up a little you know you are right though cause all though i havent lost loads i can feel my pants fitting me better usualy by lunch i have to undo them to breath lol but today they stayed shut all day;-)

I wore my new combats today (a size 16 from peacocks!!!) and wore them all day and realised when I went to take them off they are fitting really well, but it is insentive to keep on loosing as I was in a 24 from Evans back in September! and my combats are the first pair of trousers I ahve been able to buy from somewhere other than Evans in a good few years!!! (I am only 4ft 11" tall!! so 1lb looks like 10lb on me!!)

You will get there hun and whilst you get there we here on this forum are going to be jumping over each hurdle you come accross and holding your hand as you do it and we are also chanting your name so loud as encouragment whilst we do!!

ps I have used the uk sizes of my combats/trousers as from memory you are also in UK so you will understand...


to the Americans reading I am now in a USA 12 .. was in a USA 20 back in september

Well Carolyn, when we are kind of average sized like you and I are now, the weight comes off slowly because the body loses by percentages. Lets say a lot of us here on phenforum are losing 5% of our body weight in a month-

A 300 lb lady or man would lose 15 lbs, Lea would lose about 8 1/2 to 9 lbs, you would lose about 7 1/2 lbs and I would lose just 6 1/2. We would all be losing at the same rate, and those of us on the smaller end of the spectrum are doing just as good and can be as pleased with our progress as the larger gals who are losing more pounds.

Sorry to bore you with math, but that's how it works. Under 150 lbs, there's no way we could be losing as fast as other people.

You can just reorient your motivation and get back to making progress -- you already have by posting here.
