I am new to the forum but not to the Phentermine. I have been taking the pills since about July 10th of this year.
I started taking a half of pill and did well on that. The next week I started taking a whole pill. I love the boost of energy it goves me. I am a big over eater.
This is my story: Once apon a time I was 87lbs. in high school and had 4% body fat.:eek: I wanted to gain weight so bad. After my first child and my second I lost all the weight I had gained. I tried everything that GNC had and nothing worked. I read somewhere that muscle is heavier then fat and that I needed to up my calorie intake. I started eating like a truck driver, making sure I always cleaned my plate and working out like crazy. I up my calorie intake with milk and strawberry quick. I got up to 135lbs. and I was happy. I finally had hips and butt. Well, needless to say I looked up one day and I was 174lbs, my face my belly and my @$$ were larger then life!! My husband did not complain because he does all the cooking (and made me that way)ha ha. but, I didn't feel like myself and I sure did not look like myself. I had to do something. A co-worker introduced me to Phentermine and I love it. I am down to 153lbs. I am able to get into my work clothes again. I was tired of wearing the same thing over and over again. I had to start eating better and I use the treadmill for 45 mins a day in front of the T.V. and I do 200 sit-up and now I have added 25 squats w/ my ball. I feel better and I look a lot better too. I still have 8lbs. to go. I want to maintain 145lbs. I think, I'll see.
I'm almost there.
I joined the forum because I am a BIG overeater and I LOVE FOOD! and I am going to need some support. Also information from fellow Phentermine users.
Will I be able to keep the weight off once I stop taking the pills???? Or will I start feeding my face again????
Will I keep working out???? Or just sit my butt infront of the television and chow down like I was doing????
I'll see what happens

Wecome to PhenForum, Monique!
It sounds like you have been very successful before and are in the midst
of doing it again. While you are getting the extra help and support that phentermine lends you, re-train your body and head about eating. Learn the right ways to do this and I am sure you'll have great results this time. It may even be the last time you ever have to diet! :cool: Losing is possible in many ways~ you can eat 3 huge candy bars @ 400 calories each every day and lose, but you will have learned nothing. Or you can eat
only nutritious mini meals every 3 hours and re-teach yourself about healthy eats! I hope for you, as I do for myself, that when we go off phentermine that we will NOT regain the weight but will continue with our new plan for eating and exerise!!
Please start your daily journal in the Phentermine Support thread so we can all get to know you!
