Hi! I'm wondering why you think the phen is not working? What are you currently eating? You have lost 13 pounds- that's great! Keep up the good work with exercising, also. As for when to take phen, my dr. recommended taking it as late in the day as you can without it affecting your sleep. It's easier to stay on track in the mornings than in the evenings, so you want it working then. I don't follow a specific diet, but I'd recommend you read one of Ross's (rcanfiel)s posts. He gives advice at the bottom of his posts. Good luck!

Yes, an hour before you eat is the best. I only take the 15 mg. too (I cut the 37.5 in HALF), and I often add two capsules of "Farenheit" with it and it works GREAT!! I got it at GNC and it is metabolism enhancer and has a bit of caffeine it it too (I am not a coffee drinker).The girl who worked at GNC thought it was the best thing for appetite suppressants and sold it to me before I started the phen. It is 39.00 per bottle tho.. It seems to last all day tho.. (The 2 together). Dom't forget to drink tons of water!! Kathie

I just sent you a PM

[lillooney]

thank you everyone
what ii mean by workinng better is there any other pills that i can take that will work with the phen

i eat a bowl of oatmeal (b)
then i eat 2 rice cakes (l)
and for dinner i eat what ever the family is eating but only a cup full
is that enough or should i eat more.

but that you for you help
also is mixng other diet pills wiith phen okey

^^ you definitally want to make sure that you are eatting enough, even more than because you are working out

[smalltowngirl]

I would say you are definately not eating enough. I would ditch the rice cakes; you are getting no nutrition, just a spike in your blood sugar. Eat some protein, more fiber (though oatmeal is good) and fruits and vegetables. If you eat within 1 hour of waking up, and eat 6 small meals or snacks throughout the day, and stop eating 3 hours before bed, your metabolism will be higher than when you eat 3 meals a day. You can enter what you eat into fitday.com and it will tell you how many calories and how much nutrition you are getting. If it's less than 1,000 or 1200 calories, you may need to add more healthy foods. Let us know how things go for you!

Chasity,
I wish I could eat small like that-all though I am getting there I eat healthy but trying to smaller the amounts. My doc didn't put me on a low cal diet-he knows I eat healthy other wise. I do drink 3 liters of water and increased my work out more but I don't think you can take other diet pills on Phen I stayed the same weight when my son was born in 2004 NORMAL people lose the weight-I didn't and I even breast feed for 6 months-NOTHING!!! I think your fine Take vitamins if your worried-they have some out now called weight smart-I take em... Have you lost much weight so far?

[Princess S]

Opps that last one was not for Chasity it was for
Lillooney!!!! I mixed up I wanted the advice to go to Lillooney and to comment on Chasity's pic-cute pic-love the pouty lips I have them as well

Make sure you are eating at least 1200 cals per day. If you don't eat enough your metabolism will slow down which will slow down your weight loss. You didn't mention water. 64 oz per day is recommended. I drink between 80-90 oz per day and I swear for me it is the key to losing. I also take a dietary suppliment recommended by my doc called ZH1-Slim. I take it in the afternoons and it seems to boost the effects of phen for me. I only take 1/2 a 37.5 per day. I take mine between 10 and 11 a.m. and it has not bothered my sleep much. Late in the day I do also take a 5HTP which will also help supress the appetite and help with sleep. Best of luck!

[Princess S]

ZH1-Slim-What is that? Can you tell me more about it...

[Chasity]

Thanks princess. im a bit chunkier now LOL but thats my goal, so i put them up to remind me how cute i was when i was skinny! LOL....

[knoxvegasbaby]

I get the ZH1 slim from my doctor but it is an over-the-counter supplement. It is manufactured by Advantra Z/Nutratech. The active ingredients are Gurana, Bitter Orange, Ginkgo and oriental Ginseng. It is suppose to help speed up the metabolism and also help to supress the appetite. I hope this helps

Tx-I'm going to see my dr. on Wednesday and I'll be asking him about it-sounds like what I need. How far aprt do you take it with the Phem?

[knoxvegasbaby]

The bottle says to take 1-2 capsules 30 min before eating, not to exceed 6 capsules per day however my doctor has instructed me to take one about 3:00 in the afternoon. Seems to be doing the trick for me By the way, I take my phen at 10:00 a.m.

[Princess S]

Is there a web site? By the way-THANKS How much weight have you lost? Not sure if your Ticker is up dated.

[lillooney]
