just made the switch from adipex to bontril - Phentermine.com

pattyfig · July 22nd, 2009, 08:31 PM

Wish me luck! I have been on adipex for 3 months (lost 9.5 pounds the first month, 4.5 pounds the second month and gained 4 pounds the 3rd month!!!). I've always been a slow loser (had been doing weight watchers for 2 years and am down 68 pounds). I'll claim responsibility for this last month with vacation and not counting calories, but I thought I would have lost more than 10 pounds in 3 months!!! By the way, I currently weigh 185.5.
I could definitely feel the appetite suppresant benefits of the adipex weakening this last month so the P.A. at the weight loss clinic I go to switched me to bontril 105 mg. I just took it today and can already feel the effects. I am totally committed to starting over and making sure I get all of my protein / water / calories. One thing he told me kind of threw me through a loop - he said I was exercising too much????? Exercise is something that I do religiously and have done for the last 2 years. I usually strength train 2-3 times a week and do cardio (running / spinning) 3 times a week. He wants me to work out no more than 45 minutes and burn no more than 500 calories. Does that sound right to everyone? I am currently eating 1200 calories and had been burning an average of 600 - 900 calories per workout. I always thought more is better when it comes to burning calories. What do you all think?

I realize this post is dated but just in case others come across it, I took bontril last year and had great success, you have to get enough protien and you can definitely exercise too much! You are on a restricted caloric intake plan and your body needs most of those calories so walking 3-5 days a week for half an hour can be plenty depending on how many calories you are getting in. At one point I noticed if I over-exercised my weight loss would stall then I would not exercise for 2-3 days and drop 5 lbs - crazy sounding but very true!
