Hello, Hello!

Well, I thought I would go ahead and start my journal this evening even though I don't go to the weight loss clinic until Monday (as I'm sure some of you already know cause I cant stop talking about it). What can I say? Im excited.

A little about me...

Im 26, a mother, a college student and fiancee. My son will be 2 years old September 16th. Whoever said you lose weight running around after a toddler was full of it! haha! However, I did manage to lose 20+ pounds on my own over the last year, but only to gain 10 of it back within the last few months. Grrrrrrr...

Anyhoo, I will be graduating from San Francisco State University (finally!) May 2008, then tying the knot just one month later! Whew! Life is going to be busy this next year to say the least. So, not only am I going to be busy, busy, but I am determined to drop 70 pounds by my wedding date (June 28th, 2008) as well!

I hope my appointment goes well on Monday. Im excited and nervous all at once. Im excited to be taking this step, but Im nervous that I will be dooped again! Or that the phentermine wont work for me, or, or, or... haha!

Well, wish me luck! I'll be sure to keep everyone posted!

Hi, Hereweg! Hope you don't mind that I shorten your name..Some of them are pretty cute when they are shortened and I'm way too old to try to remember the whole thing!

You are graduating from the University the month before your wedding! That's wonderful and a BIG congratulations! I think you will able to do this; 70 pounds as your goal sounds very reasonable and I doubt you will feel duped when you begin your phentermine. It really does give so much more WILLPOWER! And that's about7 pounds a month. I am SURE you can do this!
Hurray! We are SO glad you're here!

Thanks ladies! Tomorrow is the big day, woo!

So, going back to the company that scamed me, (www.edpharmacy.com). Do you think I need to worry about them charging my cc again? I guess that's something Im just going to have to find out the hard way. Their site has no customer service phone number... ha! Geeze... What a lousy thing to do to people. Thank goodness for forums like this one to get the word out!

Wish me luck tomorrow!

If I were you I'd contact my cc company and tell them that you didn't get the product that you paid for...maybe they'll let you dispute the charges... and let them know in advance to take NO charges from that company on your card!

Welcome and yes, you can do it - lose weight for your wedding day. I got married in February and still remember all the craziness with the dress, wedding, etc...

Your goals are fantastic. Graduation, wedding, new life, and a new skinny you.

Good luck with the scammers (no pun intended). Be sure to warn your credit card company to watch for any attempts to get the money from your account by those nasty scammers.

I am nervous.

Im leaving in about an hour for my appointment. I hope it goes well. I hope I walk out of there with phen or a script for it. I dont know why I wouldnt... I guess Im just afraid to get too excited yet. I always tend to think that something will go wrong.

I do already walk 3 miles (with my son in the jogging stroller) 4-5 days a week, eat 5 small meals a day, averging about 1200-1500 cals a day. I have been doing everything "right," my body is just stubborn I guess... Im hoping the phen will help me get over this hump of... fatness!

However, I do tend to over eat on the weekends, throwing my week's hard work away... I end up maintaining instead of losing. So, I think that is where the phen will help me the most.

I will definitely call my cc company either today or tomorrow and tell them about my situation. Gawd knows I dont need another charge for $250 next month! Grrrrrr. I really want to hurt that so called "pharmacy"!

Ok, well my hour has turned into 40 minutes. Better start getting ready.

Good luck and let us know how it went.
