So i started phen 37.5 on 2/2/2008. I got on the scale today . . . something has to be wrong, RIGHT?
I started at 226 and today it said 218. 8lbs in just a short time? Don't get me wrong I thrilled

I started out at 234 and in one week, I was down 11.5 pounds. I lost 20 pounds that first month. Since then, the weight has been less each month but I'm still going. So Yes, I think it's possible since it happened to me. Congrats on your weight loss so far! Now Keep going!

Thanks and good luck to you! This board has great people on it and great resources. Plus, we all encourage each other. So stick around, start a journal and ask any question you want.

Hey welcome and yes, it is possible!

It will slow down a bit though, otherwise you would be like a balloon that someone had blown up and let go of!!

Hope you stick around here and get lots of support!

It's not strange to lose a big amount in the first week or two.. it's alot of water weight at first.. it will level off after 2 weeks or so

Yea, tell me about it!!

It certainly does level off, but when it does, just continue to stick with it and be patient!! Congrats on the weight lost so far!!
