Walnuts - I think the 2nd pill is Vitamin E...at least that's what my Dr. gave me (it's a chubby white oblong pill). I'm not entirely sure why I'm taking it...I'll ask when I go in next week.

AndieJ - That's so great that you've kept weight off...babies are a blessing but they leave some scars...you'll lose the weight in no time!

I decided to take the PhenD because I have been trying to lose weight for over a month and I wasn't getting the results I wanted. I've so far lost about 2lbs...I take two 35mg pills a day, one in the morning around 8AM, the second around 1PM. I took one yesterday at 6PM (I was feeling a little shaky and didn't have the chance to eat until then) and I went mad cleaning the house! My body hurts today from all the exercise! I'm definitely eating less than before (an egg+tomato sandwich in the AM, grapes and half an entree from Fresh & Easy (about 200 calories), and for dinner I've been eating some meat with mostly veggies) so I know the pounds will eventually come off. I think mentally I'm expecting some sort of miracle to happen and I'll magically lose 40lbs by the end of the year (if not sooner)...at the latest on my 28th bday in April 2010. I've always been "thick", probably all the way back to the age of 8. I was always bigger than the other girls at school, but never the biggest. My brother & sister were both super skinny, which didn't help my self esteem or confidence. Now that I'm older, I have the self esteem, I have the inner strength...and everything else in my life is under control...now it's time to work on my hot body. Well...soon to be anyway!
