Question
I missed the Fed Ex man today so I may get my phetermine tonight at the Fed Ex office. I ordered my prescription over the internet.

I thought today I would make an appt with a Doctor so I could pay for the phentermine through my insurance. I decided to call a Bariatric Physician (40 min away). I have 50 pounds to lose and have struggled with craving, compulsive and binge eating on and off but have steadily been gaining. I called this Dr.and found that she works at a clinic for obesity, weight loss eating disorders...ect. To make a long story short, If I go to the clinic they will do a whole evaluation on me and put me on a diet. Not even sure about the phentermine yet. I desperatly want to lose this weight but not sure I should go this clinic route or first try this on my own. My Insurance does not pay for this Dr and there is a 200.00 dollar deductable and 80 max of what they think they should pay after that(Out of network).

I was wondering what other people are doing. Are you doing this on your own or are you going through a clinic? I have an appointment tomorrow but thinking of just cancelling my appt. picking up my phentermine at Fed Ex and doing this on my own.

What do you think?? All thoughts and opinions are appreciated

What to do! What to do!!

Hello,

I have never been to a weight loss clinic so I am not sure about that. What I have tried is Phentermine and it works great for me. I think that if you take phen, eat better & exercise you will get results but its not always easy I know. When I started phen months ago I lost about 25 lbs in a 2 month period without exercising. Unfortunately a month ago I started craving sweets big time and had Publix cupcakes and was addicted and gained it all back. but I wasnt taking the phentermine then so I know if I have been I would not of eaten those cupcakes (damn, they were good). I am back on track starting today though. I am trying to re-program my mind and telling myself that I do not need to eat those sweets and that what do I want more? A trim body or a chubby body. Well you know what my answer was already.

Please let me know what you decided and if you did go to your appointment. You never know what works for you until you try.

Good luck!
