Rosa,
Hi there!! You lost 111lbs. in just 6 months? Oh my god that is soooo great!!

I have lost about 30lbs. since I started in the middle of March but I would like to lose about 70 more lbs.

Now you know that I have some questions as to how you did it.

First of all what did or do you eat everyday? What type of exercise did or do you do and how often? Did you see more inches or lbs. disappear? Man I am so excited!! I am so proud of you!!! I can't wait until I can boast about losing 100lbs.

Keep up the good work Rosa you have a lot to be proud of!! Thanks for any answers and or advise you can provide it will be greatly appreciated!!

Well everyone, I would like to encourage everyone to stay healthy while we're on Phen.

I began to understand my body structure in terms of my diet pattern. As I tend to retain most of what I eat, therefore I need to reduce my carby intake and increase my protein intake.

Regular exercise help me to stay focus and keep fit and increase my staminar and endurance to more physcial activity.

I used to weight 107kg before I started on Phen. And now, it is after 2.5 months, I have lost over 22kg and my weight is stabling down and instead I loosing inches on my mid section instead.

Do watch what we eat. No sodas, chocolates, ice-cream, full cream milk and cakes. Do cut down on high carby foods, i.e. bread, rice and potatos.

Keep it going "up up up"!

Lets hear it for Nikki and Rosa!!!

Cheers
Ben

NikkiM,
Hi. You are not alone in this battle of losing weight!! I too was 262lbs. when I first decided to go and see a Bariatric Dr. about losing weight.

I had tried Metabolife but I gained 5lbs. instead of losing and boy was I pissed

I had heard from one of my co workers about this dr. so I decided to go and check him out.:sarcastic:
At first I started out on Phendimetrazine and I lost 21.5lbs in about 45 days. So when I went back I asked for phentermine and so far I have lost a total of about 30lbs. or so.

I would like to lose about 70 more lbs. to make it and even 100lbs.So you see you are not alone!!!

I think that this is a great forum for the support, encouragement,
advice, and hell even that good laugh

you might need to get through this weight loss ordeal. I know that it has helped and still is helping me. If you need a weight loss buddy, well you can count me in

Rosa · June 5th, 2000, 08:51 AM

Teresa, 30lbs. is also great! I believe if you loose any wiehgt it is something to be proud of because it's hard just to loose a few lbs. and when you loose over 10lbs. I believe you really should get a pat on the back!
Like I said before I believe the reason I lost so much wieght was because I was so so heavy. What I did was start out walking and I was very faithful to walking. I worked about 2 miles from downtown and what I would do (and i'm still doing this) is park my car downtown and walk to work from downtown and back after work. The inches began falling off like crazy. After a while I began to jog which really did wonders for me. Now I'm jogging and using Body Flex which a really great breathing exercise which you will see inches drop within the first week. I can't stress the fact that YOU HAVE TO DRINK PLENTY OF WATER. WATER, WATER, AND MORE WATER. For my diet what I did was try and eat eight times a day. I would eat 1/2 of what I would normally eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner, and eat fruit and vegs. in between. I tried to cut out as many sweets as poss. and if you can that will be great. Also allow yourself one cheat day every 14 days.
I look forward to hearing your success story soon!

What is body flex and where can you purchase it?

mychel158 · June 5th, 2000, 12:14 PM

Nikki:
I have been on phentermine since mid-february and have lost more than 30 lbs. I really did not have any symptoms except for being very thirsty. I drink at least 2 liters of water every day. I keep my fat intake well under 30 grams of fat per day and take in no more than 1400 calories, that and chasing around my 3 year old does wonders. I just found this board today and have to wonder why I had not found it sooner. Remember to do it for you and each day will be a good one!

bpayton · June 6th, 2000, 02:17 PM

Me, Body flex is a type of areobic exercise but instead of doing all of the jumping around and the 45 min. workout it is a 15 min. workout of breathing and streaching, it is really great if you want to know more go to WWW. BODYFLEX.COM. read some of the post there, let me know how it goes if you decide to try it
