Sad Doctor won't prescribe anymore!!

[holpak]

I can't beleive my doctor won't prescribe me anymore phen. The nurse even made me come in for a weigh in.. then they say that their not gonna prescribe anymore. I hate this.. i wanted to be in the restarters club so bad, and I have a date end of july that I wanted to get a head start on right now. I know i can do this without the phen but it gets me motivated to do more. I'm stuck in a non motivated stage. I really loved seeing the results i got last month with it.. and don't have the funds to be buying online (doc's so much cheaper). Help guess I need some motivation. I gotta lose 10-15 by july 27th weekend. THanks any and all!!!

Holpak,

Is there another doctor in town that you could go see that would give you the phentermine? I don't know how big your town is but where I live there are about 3 different diet doctors in town not including all the regular doctors. You may want to check into cities that are close to you that might have the diet clinics. They could write you a script for phentermine. I don't know how much they are. I think one of them in town charges like $50 a visit plus you get your own script filled. But, some have first time rates and they give you a discount.

Just an idea, maybe someone else can help out.

Heythanks... but I live in a small wyoming town but I will check into that.. if not salt lake isn't that long of a drive. Hey we have the same starting weight and are both in the same spot... I find now that I can't get past 185-190 Was really hoping to have my phen by now..but I'm gonna fake my mind out and just pretend i'm on it!! Until i can find a doctor! THanks for your input... anyone else if you have any advice on how to get motivated... i need a whip and chain.. and a lock for my refrigerator... I get so depressed when i don't see weight coming off I hate evil plateau's!!!

Sorry I couldn't help much. I know how it is to get stuck at 190. I was slowly gaining back the weight I had lost and got back up to 197. So last week I decided to get back on the ball and start writing what I ate and exercising again. It paid off, I lost 4 pounds! Aunt flo just visited today too!

I hope someone can help you. I will help you by bumping this all day. Hopefully someone will answer with me.

How long did it take you to lose the 45 pounds you have lost already? I was wondering.

Good luck with what ever you decide to do. I know you will beable to lose the weight.

Have you considred ordering one month supply at one of the internet sites. That may all you need to lose the last few pounds that you need to lose..Just a thought..

Holpak I was thinking just like jellibean just order a month on line. You can do this you have done really good so far so don't let this set you back.

[holpak]

Thanks you guys are awesome.. I'm gonna try writing down what i eat.. so i can see what a pig i'm bein!! IT's taken me about 5 months all together over a period of 2 years. Well i guess if i have to i will order online...but finances curb a single mothers wants.. till next month!! I have a date i've gotta look better for in a month so my challange to myself is to lose 10 pounds by July 27th weekend. I've always appreciated how supportive everyone is here... thanks again!!!

Did the Doctor say why he wouldn't give it to you?

[holpak]

Well it was my gynecologist that i went to he also has his family license. This was when i was in utah so i've just kept going to him. I told the nurse that i would rather just get a 3 month supply and she said he wants to give it to me in one months supply's so he coud monitor me.. so i thought everythying was cool and I went to go get my weight checked here in wyoming and faxed him the results.. then the nurse tells me that he doesn't really specialize in weight loss and would rather i try finding a doctor here even though i had an 8 pound weight loss in the month supply. I guess buying online isn't so bad... i thought it was totally outragous before but if i can get three months for under 200.00 then that's not that much and i can just focus on losing the weight instead of having to worry about getting another prescription...

I've been reading this topic, and I have a problem that's similar to yours. I know my doctor won't give me prescriptions, and I'm 5 foot tall, and weighed 152 last week, 148 now. Anyway, I got mine from the internet, and it was $150.00 for three months, and it came the very next day, or the next. I started it last Thursday. I'm real happy about it. Postage was free. It was worth it.
I think one month, though, costs more.
