Take a visit around the forum, look into the Weight loss diaries, the success photos, the chat room, you will find a TON of support, encouragement, stories and experiences that give a good idea of what is up with the whole phen thing.
Welcome and good luck!
How much are you trying to lose?

Welcome! CN is absolutely right. This is a great place for advice and support. My first piece of advice is remember that you are not going on a diet. You are making a lifestyle change to allow you to be healthier and happier. If you look at it as a diet, it's hard. Don't try so hard that you burn yourself out. Allow yourself to enjoy your new life. Look for healthier ways to enjoy things you like instead of trying to give them up completely. While you're waiting for your Phen, plan it out, clean out the really bad stuff from your kitchen. Check out fitday.com It's a free program that can help you get started. I go to it everyday and it really helps. I know people think I sound like a commercial because I mention it so often, but it has helped me soooo much. People always say track your calories and all that, but what do you do with that info? This gives you answers. Good luck and let us know how you're doing.
