I have a question for any phentermine user out there who can help. I used to get extremely energetic with the pill but now I have slowed down. I am taking the 37.5 mg doasge and if i miss a dose i feel extremely tired. I also have periods of getting extremely lightheaded. I have lost 18 lbs in 21 days!!! I started the pill on the third of April. I was wondering if these results and side efects are normal? can anyone help??

Hey
I'm new on phentermine. I've lost 5.5 pounds in 6 days. I feel that with any chemical it's easy to feel the side effects you mentioned. The light headedness could be from low blood sugar. This could mean either you're not eating enough or you're not eating OFTEN enough. I experience these side effects with caffeine! Losing weight this quickly can have quite an effect on your body. I understand the need to lose weight and feel better though, but we shouldn't do it at the cost of our overall health. Make sure you snack every few hours even if you have to force it. I have already lost the energy boost that phen gave me the first 4 days. I may take a day or two off and really focus on my willpower those two days, before I take it again. I hope this helps and comforts you somewhat.
