:confused: Hi! Today was my 1st weigh in at my doc's. Tomorrow will be my 3rd week on Phen but we weighed in early because they will be closed next week for spring break. So I was wondering, I've been weighing myself at home. Every morning, same time of day, before any food & drinks & w/ no clothes on (sorry for the TMI). My scale this morning said 192.8 So I went to my weigh in & the doctors scale said 196. ????? Um which scale do I go by? At the doc I had all clothes on, shoes, I had eaten... According to the doc I have lost 7lbs, my scale says I have lost 11lbs. UGH! What do I go by? I obviously like my scale better lol. Also was wondering since it's my 3rd week should I be losing more? Seems like most of the people on here drop alot of weight the 1st month. My doc said she will keep me on the same 30mg dose until my loss stalls. I explained to her that I lost that 1st 7lbs in the 1st week & haven't lost any since. What to do? Any advice? Thanks!!

I have only been on for a week but since i originally had my starting weight done at the doctors office I am only gonna go by that. I also dont have a scale at home. I find myself becoming too obsessive and if I dont lose enough I get discouraged. I plan on getting one once I meet my goal so then I can keep it up. Keep sticking with it. I know a lot of people get stuck but just keep it up and it will pay off. Good Luck:D
