How long does the restlessness last? I have to take a sleeping pill to get any decent rest, and I still wake up in the middle of the night and can't sleep. I hate getting up at 3:00 in the morning, when I don't have to be up until 5:30. Does this ever go away or diminish?

I was doing the same thing. I took the little blue Unisoms and that helped. I'm sleeping all the way through the night now. It took about a week. Hope this helps!

I take Unisom's too. The gel tabs. Is that what you take? How much Phentermine are you taking? I take 30 but would like to take more.

The gel tabs make me hyper. I take the blue pills. I hve to take two though instead of just one like the box says. I take 30mg Phen. I don't know if I could handle anymore than that. I feel really good on this dose but occasionaly a little ill. Anymore and I might really be a b----. ;)

i take 37.5 mls. i have been taking since the end of Dec. currently lost 23 lbs. i love it. lots of energy, but noticed after the 2nd month, that dose of energy goes away, unfortunately. at first i couldnt sleep either, so now i take my pill about 7:00am. and at 8:00pm i find i can sleep. i did get some headaches, and achy joints at first, it goes away too. but i have noticed a slight hair loss, it seems thinner now.
all in all. this is great stuff.

Tiffany: Congrats on the 23 pound weight loss. What else are you doing to lose weight? I haven't lost a pound so far, and I've been on them about two weeks. I am trying not to eat as much junk as I used to, and only to eat when I am actually hungry, and the pills help to make me not hungry. That's my actual problem, really, is that I eat when I'm not hungry. Is that called boredom eating? Anyway, I wish I could figure out how to break that habit. I try to think of something else to do when I feel that way, but haven't6 come up with something that works in my life. I'll keep trying.

That's a bummer that you haven't lost any weight in two weeks. That's unusual, especially for starting out. (I lost 9 pounds the first week!) Have you ever thought of Meridia? It has a different component. Maybe that will be more effective for you. (FYI - Meridia IS much more expensive then Phen though) GOOD LUCK!
