Hi Everyone! I was happy to find this website. I've been on Phen since the first of the month. I'm down 9lbs. I have a long road to haul. about 100 more miles so to speak (pounds that is) I've begun working out and surprisingly I'm enjoying it. I've recently changed careers and so I decided to change this aspect of my life too. I no longer want weight to be an issue in my life. Anyone out there who has words of encouragement for me about your own success with phen, Bring it on! :)

Hey Tessah & Abbie,
I'm also new here. I'm almost 30 and have about 66 pounds to lose. I've been on phen for 5 or 6 days now (my memory isn't so hot) and have lost 5 pounds so far. Mother nature kinda stepped in right when I started taking it, so I'm not sure if I would have lost more if had started taking it at a different time of the month - ya know how that goes :rolleyes: .
I was on Phen-Fen the year they pulled it off the market. Actually, I got my prescription 2 weeks before they yanked it! Talk about timing! I lost 18 pounds with that one month prescription and went on to lose another 27 pounds with ephedrine, lots of water, and exercise every day. Managed to keep that weight off for almost 2 years, until I sold my house, my boyfriend and I broke up, etc. Comfort eating nailed me and I gained back all 45 pounds and then some over the course of another 2 years. A miscarriage 2 and a half years ago didn't help either. I tried many MANY diets, but nothing worked. So, I finally decided to go back to what I knew was the one and only thing that had ever worked for me before - phentermine. And that's my story :)
Good luck to all of us!
