1st compliment from someone who doesn't know I am using

phentermine. I was SOOOO happy when she complimented me. I asked where she most noticed the weight loss, and she looked me up and down and said "everywhere". LOL....the first place I noticed the loss was my boobs...of course. I have dropped a scrub pant and jacket size (I use scrub size as an indicator as I almost live in them working 12 hour shifts). I can't wait to weigh in this Thursday so I can see where I'm at!

That's so great! I am looking forward to the day I get a compliment from someone who doesn't know I using phentermine. Can't wait to hear how the weighin goes on Thursday.

Didn't that just make your day!!! I love it when people notice the changes in my body. Because sometimes- I can't see it, and it is usually then that someone says "wow...you are looking good- how much have you lost?"
Keep up the good work!

The only person who knows I'm using Phen is my hubby, & he didn't find out until after I was already using it for 4 1/2 weeks!!! But, he noticed I had lost some weight after I lost my first 4 or 5 pounds! It was pretty cool! Then, he didn't say anything about it again until I had lost 9-10 pounds. He just blurted out one night "WOW! You've really lost some weight! How much have you lost???" Well, for one thing, I didn't even tell him I was "dieting", so he wasn't suspecting anything. I didn't wanna tell him this time cuz then he watches EVERYTHING I eat & teases me if I eat something that he doesn't think qualifies as "diet food"...LOL... So, anyhow, he would make comments every once in a while about me getting "skinny". Then he started saying I was getting "too skinny"...Whatever! Then he found out about the Phen, & he was a little upset! He said I had a mental problem & didn't need it...Oh well, that's just his opinion! I haven't told ANYBODY else, but TONS of people have noticed that I've lost weight!!! They pretty much noticed after I had lost 14-15 pounds...it's pretty cool when people notice!!! :-D Makes you feel like your efforts are paying off!!! :grin:

Yes I am still around. 230 right now. Seemed to have hit a lull. But....loosing approx 1 pound per week. Better than gaining a pound per week I s'pose. We have had an extremely busy summer, esp at work with staffing shortages the way they are right now. Take care. Thanks for the note, and I will stop in more often.

I was wondering how long do you stay on it. I was told only 3 months (the 90day supply) And then off for 2 months so my kiddneys didn't get hurt by the meds. Is this true?
