Hello Everyone!

I am a newbie on Phen 37.5 and have a bit of a concern I have read that this med is suppose to boost your energy and curb your hunger, but in all reality i haven't felt that way and I am still hungry I consume a healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner but find myself hungry through-out the day? is this normal? I can't complain I started Phen on 9/15/09 and have lost 7lbs. However I feel like am starving!!!! any comments or suggestions will be appreciated!!!

What do your pills look like, and who is the manufacturer?

Hi, JC! Glad to have you onboard with us.

There are several tricks to dampening that hunger. I hope others will add to this list:

Drink a cup of cold water before you eat.

Have bullion soup, hot, before eating.

Eat a salad first.

Stay away from simple carbs like sugar, potatoes, cakes, cookies..
Load up with complex carbs and proteins. They work best at keeping your appetite spikes in check.

Write down and measure everything you eat or drink.

Eat at least a total of 1,100 calories a day, 5-6 times a day.

Eat some form of protein EACH time..Eggs, milk, lowfat cheeses, poultry, meat, fish, nuts, beans, etc.

If you are still really hungry after you have had a form of protein and 15 minutes have passed, allow yourself to eat more protein.

I agree with both Jenna and Susan....follow Susan's advice for sure...and check the manufacturer on what meds you are taking...sometimes there are people who do not get along with certain brands.

Good luck!
