Hi beautifullychaotic,
I am currently taking phentermine 37.5 mg. So far for me it's been very effective and has worked GREAT!!! I have been using it for one month now and have lost 20 pounds so far. I started at 170 pounds and my goal is to get to 125-130 pounds.
But, it's not just the phentermine that's helping me to lose the weight. I also eat a low fat and low calorie diet. I work out 5-6 days per week, which includes one hour of cardio each day and weight training every other day. I try to drink a lot of water too, but sometimes I don't drink as much as I should. The diet hasn't been hard to follow because I don't have an appetite at all since I started the phentermine. I actually have to force myself to eat most of the time. I could easily go all day w/o eating, especially if I'm busy. Of course that's not healthy, so I'm constantly reminding myself to eat throughout the day.
I get my phentermine from a local weight loss clinic. There, they are super supportive and have a wonderful program to assist you in losing the weight and keeping it off.
I wish you much luck and success with your phentermine. Please let me know how you're doing and if you have any questions.
Take care and God bless!!
Goodness how do you fit all of that in?! lol I am hoping that this works for me as well as it is you! I get on the treadmill for 30 mins every other day. My doctor said that thats just what I need. I have no other time to do anything else really. I am constantly doing something. lol I took it today for the first time today and I felt a rush! Warm and fuzzy. I was buzzing around my house and then all of a sudden it was like coming off a high and getting really tired. Now at this moment I am feeling back to normal. I have noticed that I am not "picking" at food like I was. I just hope that it stays that way. My doctor also said that I would be on this for 6 months and after that he would get me to a dietitian to make sure my eating habits are up to par so I dont relapse.
Thanks for replying. I like hearing from everyones points of views. I will keep you posted!
