I started about 3 and a half weeks ago and have lost 15 pounds. That is one or two jeans sizes for me. I was a 16, yesterday I got my jeans out that didn't fit me and I am wearing my size 13/14 jeans today!!
I think that it is probably different for everyone, but 15lbs for me is great!! I am being monitored by the doctor and we are going to try this for 3 months and see how things go. So far, so good!
Be prepared for some side effects...
Extreme thirst, drink a lot of
water.
Horrible headaches, I had them for the first week only, and no problems after that, when you feel them come on, down water like crazy.
Loss of sleep, I think I got about 6 hours of sleep the first week, I got sleeping pills called "Simply Sleep", 2 pills is the dose, I took one and got to sleep that night & really haven't had problems since.
Loss of appetite, You could honestly go the entire day with out eating, but make sure that you go.
Phentermine helps you realize that you don't need to eat the amount of foor that you are taking in and it is great for giveing up your cravings.
Blurry Vision, for the first 2 weeks I had this, but it has been ok for about a week.
Feeling Loopy, I have not felt jittery, or shakey at all, but for the first week, I was very out of it.
My suggestion to anyone starting this for the first time, start on a Thursday or Friday. This way you give yourself a day or two of getting use to the side effects duringthe weekend, so you can be better prepared when you go back to work on Monday.
Obviosly, not all the side effects can happen to everyone, but what I experienced sounds like it pretty much happens to everyone.
HANG IN THERE!!! After the first week or so, all of it goes away, except for the loss of appetite, which you really do want.
Sorry, I'm not trying to scare you off, I will stick with Phentermine because it is a great tool to get going on my
weightloss journey.
Good Luck to you!!
