My experience with Phentermine

**Cyn** · 06-22-2005, 03:13 AM

I get bad leg cramps when I am low on potassium also. Bananas will help--but that is one fruit I cant handle--too squishy I guess.

My girlfriend can't handle bananas either. They make the roof of her mouth
start itching like crazy and she gets mad.

:(

Glad to know I am not the only one--my family loves them. I can handle them in recipes but I just cant eat one plain.

I am really picky about bananas too. Sometimes I like them, but sometimes the thought of them make me queasy.

I don't know if anyone has ever tried this, but, I don't really care for bananas myself and I buy banana baby food and it's the same thing just in a different form. If you have the baby food, you can mix it in with anything you want (hot cereal, pudding, etc.) to mask the taste if that's the problem.

I know it sounds goofy, but it makes leg cramps go away really fast.

I've never taken the vitamins, but I think that most of the multi-vitamins have potassium in them.

Hi, I am new here... I have been taking Phentermine 1 week on one week off, working out, and doing southbeach diet.. I started at 158 and my goal is 125! I am at 142 now...

I can say that you will get your potasium better in a supplement rather than a banana. Banana's are very high up on the glycemic index... the less sugar your body takes in the better. if fruit is what you crave try strawberries! They are very high in fiber! I have found a high fiber/ low bad carb(refined carbs- ie white bread, potatoes) combined with whole grains is the best bet! No more ups and downs when your blood sugar is under control.. and this helps when you aren't taking phentermine to help with your appitite!!!

good luck to you all!!!!
