hi bosco, I'm new here too. Just found this site yesterday. I am almost there! But worried when to stop taking phentermine, scared weight will creep back on. How long have you been taking pill. Me since May, 2001. Do you know any bad side effects? Also, my husband started just a few days ago. He was inpressed how much I lost, and he wants to loose weight, too.

Hi Golden Cat,It is so great that you are close to goal. I know what you mean about being afraid of what's next.....I have been on this time for a few days..last time I was on/off for months. I went off in April and have gained 16 pounds since so I went back on. I haven't had any side effects other than feeling a little hot, anxious. I'm a nurse and i think a little knowledge can be dangerous so it makes me a little nervous to take it BUT I NEED IT!!! Have you had any troubles?

Hi Bosco, Nice meeting you. So, far I think all is well (I think?) I do bruise easily, don't know if that's anything. Hey, since you are a nurse, is it normal to faint two times in a row after giving blood? Also, my vein collapsed, then soon afterward, I became VERY faint, couldn't breath, panting, turned white, and verrry sick to my stomach! Weird. I plan on telling my doctor next time I see him. I see him once a month. write back k

Hi, it's great to talk to you!! Fainting after giving blood could be caused by alot of different things, hard to say. For instance did you eat enough that day? I would talk to my Dr. when I went. Have you always bruised easily? That's another thing I would mention. How much have you lost total? How's your husband doing with it? So far so good for me this time. The phen just gives me the control I need. I'm going to try to stick to 1200 cals a day. I also think I'll go to weight watchers just to weigh weekly. My Dr. wants to see me every month too but I want to be weighed more often. Well, I better run. Do you know if the chat rooms are ever open?

Hi Bosco,
Sorry it took so long to write you back. My husband has lost 17 lbs, very fast (just a few weeks!) It took me months to loose that much. I am almost to my goal. I was size 16 and now fit size 10! I am very short and weighed way to much for my height, so got to keep on trying and stay a confortable weight. I check out chat site and sometimes there are lots of people chatting and sometimes no one there. Hey thanks for the advise. I did check with my doctor and found out I am a little anemic. He put me on 1400 calories a day, but I think that is still too much, so I put myself to 1000 - 1200. And nooo more than that. I also go to aerobics. Boy, I feel so much better! Well hope to hear from you again! golden_cat
