Hello. My name is Carrie. I've been on Phentermine 37.5mg for almost 3 weeks now. I love the way it's kept my appetite under control & have already recieved a few weight loss compliments from a few people. Current weight: 206. Goal Weight: 150.

Here's my question: I know that Phentermine is most commonly taken in the morning time. My bedtime (on average) is midnight. (I get up at 8:30am). Therefore, I'm starving by 10pm. I've experimented & tried waiting until about 3pm to take my Phentermine. This has worked so great for me. It's made my nightime hunger non-existant & I've had no trouble falling asleep. Will taking my Phentermine so late in the day hinder my weight loss?

All I can say is wow !!! Your very lucky because, most ppl would be up all hours of the night scrubbing their floors and doing laundry.lol

Are you taking the whole thing or just half ? Some ppl also get the opposite affect to where they are tired and lethargic, so goes to show you, you never know, how you are gonna react. I guess your just lucky.

I have read on here though, some ppl preferred to take it around three or so for the same reason, it gave them that extra boost to stop the 10 oclock munchies. Though for most ppl, I highly don't recommend it, only because of the insombia, which most ppl get from taking it so late.That's my problem is at night because, I seem to have better control during the day.

I would think it would do the opposite and work even better for you, especially, if you eat the most at night, that's probably where alot of your calories come from and some weight gain happened.

My is from having 4 kids and the nighttime munchies. Like spice said ,whatever works for you and yes you do kinda have to play around with the time's, until you find what works for you.

So, I take it, you have better hunger control ,during the day then ?

Goodluck and keep us posted. ttyl c.c.

Spice- Thank you so much for the warm welcome. Sahmof4- Thank you, as well! And yes, I'm taking the whole 37.5mg. The first week it kept me up super late, but after I got adjusted in my 2nd week, I've had no problem sleeping. And yes, I get the nightime muchies BAD so this helps tremendously. Susan- Thank you so so much for the awesome encouragement! God Bless you ladies <><

I had the same problem with the munchies at night, but even when I'm taking my pill in the morning I am not having the need for food at night like I used to. I think that's because I'm so busy with my school work and all that I'm even too tired to eat sometimes.
I heard of people that take half the pill in the morning and the other half by 2 or 3 in the afternoon. My doctor said I could do that if the munchies attacked at night, but I haven't. I guess that also has to do with the strenght of the pill you are taking.

You know what, I think I am going to try this this week and see how it works for me. This past week I've taken it right after breakfast, but if I have to work that day I get up super early at 6 and the munchies hit me hardcore around 10.
