2nd Day on Phen

[ash724]

i took my second pill today:), i took it about 9:30 this morning. so far so good. not as jittery as i was yesterday, but again full of energy. I couldn't fall asleep until about 2 this morning, n i tossed and turned all night, woke up a few times but went right back to sleep. My eyes were dilated all day yesterday, especially at night. I'm not hungry, had to force food down yesterday, and will have to do the same thing today. When i did eat yesterday it was very hard to swallow. I as well drank ALOT of water! About 80-90 oz. which im kind of worried about retaining the water. Along with the Phen i am also taking a Energy pill that the doc gave me, and a multi vitamin (the ones you buy at the store). Is anyone else taking any other pill(s) their doctor gave them and what are they??

Not taking any other meds, but I'd be interested in knowing why your doc would put you on Phen AND an energy supplement. Just curious, is all. Are you on any special diets now? Today is my second day and I'm anxious to see how this is going for everyone.

I have no idea why they gave me the energy pill as well, i dont think its needed, but they said to take it with and they are the doctors so im doing what they said. I will be asking them my next visit which is Tuesday why they have me on both. As for a special diet, they didnt tell me anything about a diet, like ive read on here people saying their doctor told them 800-900 calorie intake a day. But when i decided to start taking these things, i started eating health, watching my portions and calories, and the times i eat. But with the Phen I'm not hungry so i try and force myself to eat through out the day. Today is my 3rd day, and I dont have any of the side effects i had the first or second day, except for the dry mouth and loads of energy.

oh, yea.... I went to the gym last night worked out for 2 n a half hours, before i went into the steam room, i stepped on the scale, out of curiosity... I'm down 3 lbs!!!! That made me feel really good! This stuff is actually working!!!


How is everything going for you?

Wow that sounds amazing! Not only did you drop 3lbs, you worked out for 2hrs?! Now that's motivation! Just remember not to push yourself too hard, I know you've probably heard it a million times. My doc didn't really tell me to get on a specific cal intake diet, but he gave me this Adipex/Phen booklet with tons of info such as things to eat, a meal plan for quite a few cal intake diets... it's pretty cool. I did buy a 6lb bag of EAS Premium Protein powder and I have been drinking those as either a snack or breakfast replacement. Sounds like you're on your way to a healthy success! Keep it up... just think of the clothes! haha.

OMG! I've been working out before I started with the Phen, I feel amazing every time I walk out of the gym! But I usually only go for 2 hours, including check-in, put my bag in the locker, head up stairs, I usually do the stair-stepper for half hour, and bike for a half hour, crunches and such, then back to the lockers, change into swim wear and hit the steam room, shower and get dressed. So I'd say my total work out would have to be around an hour n a half. But yesterday my total work out time was 2 hours!!! I was so proud of myself, I felt like I could keep going and going. LOL

Thats awesome, your doctor gave you that book, I wonder if mine has something like that...?

Did your doctor give you any other pills to take with the Phen? Mine gave me an energy pill to take with it....

I cant wait for the clothes! I have a pair of "pre-baby" pants still hanging in my closet from about 5 years ago, size 5! I will do back flips when I can fit into those again!!! Hell even the 7s & 9s would be good!

How long have you been on Phen?
What was your starting weight? What is your goal, and "dead line" ?
What size clothes were you in when you started? And what size do you want to be in?

"Heaven is on the other side of that feeling you get when you're sitting on the couch and you get up and make a triple-decker sandwich. It's on the other side of that, when you don't make the sandwich. It's about sacrifice.... It's about giving up the things that basically keep you from feeling. That's what I believe, anyway. I'm always asking, "What am I going to give up next?" Because I want to feel..." ~Jim Carrey, from a Michael Fleming interview in the March 2004 issue of Playboy magazine
