HI

My doctor only prescribed two months of Phentermine to me. He told me take it for the two months and stop.
While doing research I saw all these side effects for just stopping and Im worried Iwill gain the weight I have lost back.
Im trying very hard - and its frustrating because I have a severe ankle injury which prevents me from doing most workouts.
Im also getting married in May and Im NOWHERE near my goal weight and Im freaking out.

I tried to call my doctor to ask him about this - the side effects - and he said not to worry that I wont be on it that long to feel the side effects and that the reason he only gave me two months was to get me through the ankle injury and then I can start really working out.

What suggestions do you have for me? Do you think I should ween off of the drug maybe the last two weeks - or just do what my doctor says?

Also - I havent changed my diet too much since starting - but have cut down my portions SIGNIFICANTLY - what diet plan do most of you follow?

Thanks!
