ANYBODY FROM MISSOURI?

[carrie06]

HI EVERYONE!!! I AM A NEW MEMBER AND LOOK FOR SOMEONE TO SUPPORT AND HELP ME THROUGH SHEDDING THESE UGLY POUNDS. I GET NO SUPPORT FROM MY FAMILY (HUSBAND). I GET DOWN ON MYSELF AND EAT FOR NO REASON. I AM 26YRS. PLEASE HELP ME

[mi-herb]

Hi Carrie and Jane!! I'm from Missouri too. I haven't got a script yet but I'm supposed to go to the Dr. next Tuesday. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!!!! A girl that I work with is taking phentrmine and she lost 20 pds. I'm going to go to the same Dr she went to and see if I can get a prescription also. Carrie ---I think you should feel good about yourself for just taking the iniative and trying to do something for yourself. I'm sorry your husband isn't supportive but it looks to me like you can get all kinds of support from this site!!! Is it too much to ask where in Mo. you guys are?? If you don't want to say I understand. I'm in Springfield. Good luck!! Michelle

[mi-herb]

Jane --I just noticed your location is posted on your message. We are almost neighbors!!! Michelle

[BusyChic]

Did you find a dr you two could go to? I am a neighbor of you too

[mi-herb]

Hi BusyChic!! I did find a Dr and I did get my script. At first it made me feel a little funny but now I'm ok. I've been on for 2 or 3 weeks and I think I've lost a couple of pds. My scale is completely crazy so I don't trust it. I can weigh myself and go back 20 minutes later and I've lost 2 pds. :) As much as I like that it shows I've lost weight I think maybe I should be a little suspicious. :eek: Anyway==I go back to the Dr June 5 so we'll see.

[BusyChic]

So that makes 4 of us from mo. Where are you all from?

[mi-herb]

Hi Busy Chic-- I don't think the other two people from Mo. are posting anymore. I never heard from them again. I see you live in Spfld--me too!! Are you taking phentermine? If you are are you having any luck with it? Anyway--hope to hear from you!!!! :) I go back to the Dr on the 5th so I'm a little nervous. (biting nails)

[BELLA25]

HI BUSY CHIC and MI-HERB
I am a neighbor too :)

[mi-herb]

Hi Bella25!! It's nice to find people from Mo. on the board. Are you taking phen and if you are are you having good results? I've been on for a little more than a month and at my 30 day check in I had lost 12 pds. If I would apply myself a little more I think I could do better. Were in Mo do you live--if you don't feel comfortable answering you don't have to. You probably saw that I live in Sprfld.

Hi, I used to live in Springfield and Branson. I now live in Jefferson City.

I took Phen beginning in Jan 2005. I don't take it any more. I have lost a total of 72 lbs.

[spc0725]

Hi! I am from Springfield. Can you suggest a doctor to me that prescribes phentermine? Thanks.

[budnjules]

Hey, I am from KC and just got put on this med from my doc. I have had a problem losing weight from just doing Weight watchers so he thought this would give me a good jumpstart. So far, I have lost 8 pounds in a week 1/2. Glad to know that there are others out there just like me.

[hajjamer]

Hi there. Congratulations on the 8 pounds!! I'm not from Missouri but my husband is and so is his family. They all live in Springfield.
We live in Michigan. I have been battling a 50 lb bulge for a long time now. I went to my doc and I asked her for something. She put me on Phentermine. I hope it works. Its only been 5 days so we'll see. I've been exercising everyday(walking 3 miles) and I will start doing abs rolls again. If I can find my ab roller. I put it in the garage and now I can't find it. Good luck with your weight loss Its sounds like you have a great start.

[LoseItNow]

I know it's been awhile since you have started this thread, but I live in Missouri too. About 3 hours northeast of Springfield. I just started on Halloween, but I lost 12 lbs my first week!

[kellyinks]

[astorey]

Hi- I'm from Missouri too. Just moved here and noticed that I can no longer order phen online. :( WHAT A BUMMER! I didn't have any trouble when I lived in Kansas. Anyone know of a Doctor in this area that is not against prescribing phen? Some doctors are very hesistant but I need to lose some baby weight. I just had a baby. I would appreciate it if anyone in the Kansas City metro area would let me know of a dr. they see regulary. Thanks You can pm or email me at ******** thanks again. april

[Danna]

Hi I'm from Missouri too. I live in Joplin. There's a lot of Dr.'s here who prescribe it. One of the dr's specializes in it. His visit is $50, that includes the 30 day supply and visit.

[kahajuje]

Hi i live on the Kansas/missouri line and am looking for the Dr in Joplin that specializes in prescribing phentermine, could some one pm me the name and number please?? Im having trouble losing the weight am actually gaining every week.

[yappidy]

I am also searching for a weight loss clinic near Joplin or Springfield. I would like to give another try to the wonderful world of dieting. Phentermine is a great help when dieting. I am ready but I am clueless where to find a clinic nearby. I am also near Berryville Arkansas and go that way more then any.

Hello all, I too am from Missouri (Trenton). I have been taking phentermine for just a lil' over a month, and I have shed 15.5# I know what some of you mean about doctors not wanting to prescribe this medication. I went to my family doctor, and she said "absolutley not" but a friend of mine were talking one day, and I was telling her that I had seeked doctors help about the prescription drug (phentermine) and she said "oh your kidding? I take that..so she recommended I go see her doctor, and sure enough I did. And I like the results that I am seeing. The only downfall to this med is that I have dry mouth, and profuse sweating at times, but I can live with that, as long as this helps me acheive my goal.

[AKMiller]

Hello!! I am from Springfield, Missouri. Dr. that I have dealt with that are really easy to talk to and is willing to help is Dr. Kristen Glover (who is Great!) She is no longer my dr, because of Network, but she is wonderful. The other Dr.'s in Springfield, some not all, are not very easy to work with to get phen.

[wrmc4]

Anyone around here from south kansas city,mo area?I am about 1 an d a half hours from joplin also .It is nice to see so many from Missouri.I have tried talking to my doctor but he don't want to prescribe phen.I am 39, 5'4 , and weigh 245 and can't beleive that if there are so many doctors that do prescribe it than i am upset that i ahve one that will not.I can't just doctor shop until i find one due to the cost iof a doctors visit.If there are any docs that any of you would like to share names with please let me know.Iam getting desperate and tired of being big and just gaining and my clothes not fitting.Sorry for venting but it gets aggravating when you need halp and your doctor won't listen.

[gena q]

wrmc4, I sent you a PM with my Dr's name. Good Luck!

[AKMiller]

Im originaly from Independence. Grew up there and most all my family lives around KC. I'll see if I cant find out any other physicians for you. For those of you who live in St. Louis, I used to work for Dr. Marlou Davis. He specializes in weight loss. Not sure if he's still in business or not. Used to have several offices. You all can buy Alli online right now. Goes well with phen. Makes you watch everything you eat!!! If you dont, you will pay for it on the toilet. I used to take Xenical. Also, for those of you who cant get a doctor to prescribe phen, and can tolerate ephedra, I just tried Stime**-ES and boy does it work!!! Impressive. You can log onto the web site, just google the name and it takes you there. If I find out anything else I will let you all know. Good Luck to all. I've lost 16 lbs now, unfortunately, I put on 4 lbs and all you women can probably figure out why. Aaaargh!!!!

[mrsdavebatista]

How far are you from Joplin?

[STIGMATADOR]

I'm from St. Louis; I saw Marlou Davis many years ago, and he prescribed the drug for me. I had great success with it. (I do not believe Dr. Davis can prescribe medications any longer, though I could be mistaken.)

Years have passed, and I need to drop some pounds again--at least about 30. But I'm having the damndest time finding a place to get Phen anymore. I miss the days when it could be safely ordered online... If anyone has a valid link or a decent doctor to refer, I would much appreciate it...

Hi everyone! I am from Lake of the Ozarks and need to find doctor who will prescribe phentermine in my area. Anyone who can help?

[bah878]

Hi everyone...

I am a college student who has always had a problem with managing my weight. I was on phentermine for a while, and it worked great for me.

I am now looking for a doctor in Springfield or Joplin area who can prescribe the medication for me. Does anyone know of any doctors around here?

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.

[rockchalkjhwk]

I am brand spankin new. I am looking for a doctor that prescribes in KS/MO, I'm also looking for a buddy.

I have a friend that gets her scripts from an OB, however I can't switch to him because he is out of network. If anyone wants his info PM me.

If anyone has a regular family doctor let me know. I don't want to use Phen as a crutch but a good start.

[kiki*in*mo]

I am from Ozark, Mo. Just a few miles south of Springfield. I was on Phen about 6 years ago and loved it. But due to moving to a different job and insurance i had to leave the dr. that was prescribing it to me. So i had to go off of it since my new Dr. wouldnt give it to me:mad: But i do have an appt with a Dr Monday in Joplin. So i am really excited about it. Does anyone know of a Dr. in Springfield?? I hate to have to drive a hour to get it in Joplin. But if ive got to travel i will.:D

[grace1]

Hi all! I am a newbie here and, my Dr. has retired out of NOWHERE and, I need to find a Dr in the Saint louis/Saint Charles area..Anyone know of any??
I saw someone from Arnold as well..That would be worth the drive.
Can anyone PM me if they know of a Dr. in the area?
Thanks:)

[Teresea]

Did you have any luck finding a Dr. in the St. Louis area? If so may I ask who? I need one also. Thank you

[lovinmyair]

The closest drive I am aware of is in Carthage Missouri. It is where my weight loss dr is. I am taking Phentermine and have so far lost 12 pounds now. Other than that I'm not sure. I haven't heard of one in Springfield though.

[stacybrneyes75]

Hi all, I am currently residing in missouri as well been here for 4 years. I am in the Ozarks area, about 50 miles from springfield and 30 from the Camdenton area. I am see a general physician in Lebanon who has something called " Diet Clinic" He has me on 105mg of Bontril . I am getting the generic not sure if there is a big difference or not. So far I am not real impressed with this product. I weighed myself after two weeks and really only have lost like 2 pounds. I was on Phentermine 37.5 mg about 11 years ago and it worked really well i lost over 40 pounds. I welcome any feed back or suggestions. Thanks

Does anyone have a Dr. in Springfield that they would recommend for getting phentermine? I have seen it work great for a previous coworker and one of my relatives and I need something because I just don't feel like myself anymore!

[Jennifer1214]

Hi everyone,
My name is Jennifer I'm 27. i have been on phentermine for 3 days now .. so far so good .i would love to chat with anyone from my area to give support and get support please feel free to contact me on here or email jennyjen1214 @ yahoo

[currantcraze]

Hi Jennifer
I live in your area. I go to a doctor in Joplin. Just started phen at end of October. Have lost about 9 pounds. Lost more when I took it about 4 years ago, but I am not exercising enough I think. I am origninally from Oklahoma, but have been here a few years so far. Want to lose about 40 pounds. It is hard to not eat carbs which the doctor wants me to avoid. Slowly but surely the weight will come off. Where do you go to the doctor and how much do you have to pay? Just wondered. I pay 45 a visit plus I get a script for my phentermine and pay 29 for pills at the pharmacy. Heard there is another doctor in Carthage that is cheaper, but haven't done enough research yet to find out.
Hope you continue to have success! You soud like you have lost a lot of weight so far.
