I am thinking about ordering phen because I want to lose some weight before my spring break in a month. Is it realistic to lose about 30 lbs by then? I currently weigh 175.

Not to be too discouraging but I seriously doubt you'll lose 30 pounds in a month. I've been on it for 7 days now and haven't lost an ounce. NOthing. I'm getting pretty discouraged too. I weigh a LOT more than you. They say that the more you have to lose the faster it comes off. But, for me, nothing is coming off. I've talked to other's who've had the same trouble. But, most people do lose. From what I've gathered from other users, the average weight loss is 10-15 pounds in a month...some people lose more and some people, like me, lose less. Keep in mind that phentermine doesn't make you lose weight. There is no pill in the world that can do that. It just controls your appetite. You still have to watch what you eat and exercise. The exercise is what I think is holding me back...I haven't done any yet. ;) Good Luck.

I agree. Not to sound negative, but 30 lbs in a month is too much. You need to exercise for 30 min 3-5x a week and drink lots of water. Eat in moderation and use phen as a tool. The better you eat, the more you exercise, and the more water you drink, the better off you'll be. By the time the month rolls around, trust me, no matter what you've lost, you will be happier because you will be healthier. Think about more realistic goals. You should think about signing up for the Bunny Challenge. It really keeps you motivated and accountable. Hopefully, I will reach my Cupid's goal by Friday! Good luck!

try to loose weight for the next month- Have a goal of 10 pds. If you loose more thats great.
Eat right exercise and drink water. Your self esteem will be much higher just loosing 10.
Next year go with 30 pds less. Good luck.

Sorry but I have to agree with everyone else. 30lbs is unrealistic in a month, even though for me being on it just a week and a 6.2lb lost seems pretty good. The more water you drink the better and I agree this pill DOES not make you loose weight, you still have to do the work with self discipline. Phen only helps curb your appetiete :D

Hi,I am with the others on this as well,but I think if you are going to try to lose as much as possible before spring break,you should try a higher dosage of Phentermine,such as Adipex-P.I have been on Adipex for about 8 days and have already lost 6lbs.So maybe it would work great for you too.I have alot more weight to lose than you,but I plan to drop about 65lbs. before the FOURTH OF JULY!I know with exercise and a continous good diet plan,I can do it.Good luck to you!

wow you guys respond really fast! Anyways I realized it was too much too fast before I read your responses so im gonna shoot for 15 lbs. Thanks for all the support and answers.
And for those who use adipex P-- how do you like it? I think I'm gonna try this form of phentermine too. I would like to hear peaoples response.
