Hi! I have been reading but not posted until now. I Started Phentermine 37.5 August 24th. I get very depressed when I get heavy. I went to see my Doctor and told her I had gained 30 pounds since I had seen her last which was One year. I told her how tired I was and I could not go back on the Adkins which I had lost on before . When I went off the Adkins a year ago July I got very ill and had to go into the hospital. I heard later from a very good source that it most likey was because of the Adkins and then going off of it. The doctor understood and said she would try to help me. I was eating everything in site this pass year and Icecream everyday. I had a pull in me that could not stop me wanting to eat. She gave me the Phen and I love it. I am doing very well and have the will to say no! It has been 30 days today and yesterday I went to see the doctor and Had lost 14 POUNDS ! I weighed in at 165 when I went to see her the first time and yesterday at 151 ! I am less than 5 FT tall so that is alot of weight for me. This forum is a great place to come to. I have learned alot just reading. I still need to exercise and keep learning to eat right. I am working on both of those. Thanks for all of you being here.

:helloooo: Hello, Laura! Welcome to PhenForum! Just jumped right in on your first post~BRAVO!! We are very glad to have you. I think most of us read the forum for a long while before deciding it really is a great support.:o We now have 2 personal trainers, both named Ian , one of whom is the administrator, and a super-duper, resident pharmacist, Mike, AKA 'Top-Dawg'. Amanda moderates and keeps everyone on an even keel. Without exception, I think each of us here is needed and all give of themselves and of their experiences. It's refreshing to find such fast friends online.
:cool: We are very glad you have joined us and hope you will feel free to begin posting!

Susan ... I have been reading alot about you on here. You have been doing great. I hope I lose as quick. It is really funny how since I have been on the Phen I am eating healthier and not wanting the bad foods. I want to learn to eat right and not to depend too long on the pills. I figure after 3 months my Doctor will be taking them from me. :( So I hope I lose alot more in the next 2 months.

Mango... I am really only 4 ft 11 and 3/4 hahahaha. I just added on the 1/4 to be easier. I might be shorter as I am much older than when my height was last measured. I am moving back to the southern part of Indiana. I live way west right now. I hope this medication keeps working for me too. So Far so good!

I hate being so short as the tinsiest bit of weight makes me look huge!

Hi, Laura! We need to hear from you again. I m so glad you are eating healthy foods. They say habits are learned or unlearned after 30 repititions, so I am hoping after you go off the medicines the doctor prescribed that you will have adjusted well and will keep losing to you goal!:p
