Hello All! I am so new to this Phen world, I almost feel lost trying to read everyones posts. I am a 35 year old mother of twin 2 year old girls. Before I had them, I was never under 180 pounds. I got pregnant and ended up as a high risk and placed on bed rest at 23 weeks in the hospital and told that I was not going to leave the hospital until I gave birth. I thought to myself " Are you kidding me?" I will be here for months! Well 5 1/2 weeks later I gave birth to my daughters at 28 weeks. I left the hospital 212 pounds. Because they were born so early and with so many problems, they were in the NICU for 5 months. The stress alone helped me take off the weight. When the girls came home, I went from 212 to 175. I heard about a Dr here on Long Island that sold Phentermine and I read about it. I ended up going to him last Saturday July 18th. He took my weight at 168 pounds and told me that I should really be around 135 -140 ( I am 5'4). He explained that I needed to take a pill first thing in the morning when I got up! He also told me that I should follow my body. If I am not hungry, don't eat. If I am hungry, eat healthy (fruits, veggies, low fat food). Today is Saturday the 25th of July and I weighed in this morning at 163, 5 pounds in a week, I think that is pretty good (not sure though). I have to ask all who read this to please help with something... Since I started the Phentermine a week ago, I have NO and I mean NO appetite... NONE! I have a carnation instant breakfast in the morning after I take my pill. It gives me such energy, I could run a marathon. I get to work with a cup of coffee and I don't even think about food. At about 1:30 - 2:00, the girls at work are ordering lunch. I have eaten salads for lunch all week and have not been hungry. When I get home I have my daughters wanting to go outside and play, still don't have an urge to eat.. I do end drinking another carnation instant breakfast b/c I have no appetite but know I need something in my body. Ok, so I know your all saying " She is not getting enough calories, her body is going to "survival mode, she is never going to keep the weight off"! I also find that I am sweating alot in the morning after I take my pill. I take a shower and then in 10 minutes, I have sweat pouring down my face... I look at my husband and he is not hot at all.. WTF??? Can anyone help me?? I feel as though I am here alone on this phen trip and need some guidance from others that have been there.... Thanks so much!
