My 1st month: 18 lbs. 7 inches gone!!!

[hffankay]

I'm new here, had my 1st follow-up visit yesterday & I was shocked to see 18 lbs. gone! 2 inches off my bust, one off my waist & 4 inches off my hips...I'm so estatic! Nothing else has ever worked for me. I have a LONG way to go (over 100 lbs.) so I'll need all the support I can get! I'm excited about this first month & it gives me hope. I take one Phen about 10:30, 11 am & eat lunch whenever I get hungry; then I usually don't want anything the rest of the day! I'm eating like 1/3 of what I ate before & I was never "full". Would love a phen buddy who needs to lose over 100 lbs. also...we can be in this together!!! Thanks.

I am a little confused and was wondering if anyone can help. January of 2002 I started Phentermine took it for three months and lost 35 pounds. I ordered another three months in December of 2002 and started taking them. As of today (1/7/03) I have yet to lose any weight. Should I take 37.5 instead of the normal dose that I am taking or has my body just adjusted itself to what I took earlier in the year.

Can anyone help?????? :confused:

WOW! I just want to give a big THANK YOU to everyone for the words of encouragement & support! This website has helped me from day one & I'm so excited about the months ahead! It means so much that there's people out there I can contact who are going through the same thing I am. Thanks again everyone!!!

nolegrrrl Welcome. I am new as well. Isn't this site great. I started 12/12 at 230 now lost 17 pounds 1/8. I adopted the protein plan and cut my carbs. Lots of books about it. Atkins, Protein Power if interested. Exercise whatever you can do. WATER, I drink 150 ounzes at least a day. Come to this site. The support and love of total strangers, some not so strange, is invaluable. Love yourself, and good luck

I am so impressed. I have been oh phen since Dec 10th and so far I have lost 17 pounds. I am going to measure myself today, I did not do that before. I have about 67 more pounds to lose it will be a tough road but will do it.
So you do not eat after lunch at all?? Isn't that bad for you though? I eat just not a whole lot I get full really fast.
Good luck!... :heart:

My weight loss has gradually slowed, so now I've lost 30 lbs. since I began. Last month was only one pound. I joined CURVES, the women-only work out place last week....by going 3 times a week, I'm bound to see better results! It's really a good workout & anyone can do it. I'm not drinking water like I should. My doctor said to stop taking it for 2 days each week, then when I begin again it will work better, because you get kind of used to it. I go in 2 days for my checkup.... wish me luck!!!

Can anyone help?????? :confused: Is it supressing your appetite? Are you drining soda or fruit juice instead of water to overcome the drymouth?
