WELCOME to ALL THE NEWBIES! I have been on Phen since 4/17/08 and thusfar I have lost 18 pounds. IT HAS NOT BEEN EASY and I get frustrated, but it's worth it! Caterpillargirl, I understand what you mean. When I first started Phen I had every single side effect; from THE WORST HEADACHES (that lasted three weeks), jitters, rapid heartbeating, bloating, constipation, mood changes, insomnia ( for the first 2 nights) then I was always tired....it's crazy how it effects you. Just make sure you eat, no matter if you are hungry or not. I had to put myself on an eating schedule. Every 2.5-3 hours I would eat something (fruit, veggies, a Special K bar, Nutri grain bar etc.) as long as I got in 1200 calories and PLENTY of water.
And yes, my insurance covers my Phen. I only pay $23. So, once again good luck and Welcome to the forum. It's some wonderful people here!
