1 month weigh in........ - Phentermine.com

Tomorrow it will be a month since I started Phen, so far I've lost 17 pounds!!!!!!!
Good bye 200's.....I'm just afraid once I get off the Phen I'm gonna gain the weight back

Has anyone experienced little to no weight gain after being on Phen for at least 2 months?

Congratulations ddiaz. I too had my first weigh in today after 30 days on phentermine and I also lost 17 lbs. Now that's a coincidence. I spoke with the doctor today and asked her how long I should stay on phen and she said "for as long as it works". I do know that the first month weight loss is usually the most, lots of water weight. I would be very happy to lose 8-10 lbs per month. I think if we stay commited to healthy eating and increasing our activity, we should do well. Hopefully by the time we stop the phen, we will have developed the skills we need to eat properly and just say no to those trigger foods that throw us into an eating frenzy and seem to sabotage all of our efforts. Keep up what you are doing and you will reach your goal and remember not to beat yourself up if you are having a difficult day, instead, reward yourself (not with food) with a special treat for the amazing job you are doing.

Congrats to you both ! 17 pounds is an excellent 1st month!

ddiaz, awesome job on the 17lb loss! Thats great. I was on phen for three month in the beginning of '07. I think I only lost about 20 lbs in that period. The weight wasn't coming off as fast as I hoped so I quit the phen and decided to do in on my own. I continued to lose for another 2-3 months, until I went on vacation. I sort of fell of the wagon and started to eat junk again. I gained around 10 lbs back before I got back on track. I never put it ALL back on though. If you can realize when you start gaining it back you can stop yourself before it gets out of hand. Good luck with your continued weight loss!

I did gain some back after my stent from Nov 06- April 07.. I lost 57 lbs on pen.. then got preggos again.. and decided I could eat what I wanted.. and gained a whopping 62 lbs! Ouch! Now I am back on the bandwagon.. My doc said he can't legally perscribe it for more than 6 consecutive months.. since I had been off for so long I get to start all over again and he said he will continue it until I reach 165 lbs which is considered "ideal" body weight according to his books.. not mine! I think I could make 140.. but time will tell!

congrats!!! i think that the most weight loss u will see occurs during the first month, but as long as u eat right & exercise ur weight loss should be steady. good luck !

What a trip we have the same birthday!!!!

Any way thank you all for the kind words and encouragement!!! It really helps to have people that are taking Phen. I can honestly say that for the 1st time in my life I have self control and I don't feel deprived. I actually went 4th of July weekend without completely falling off!!! That is a first, I just really hope it's not the Phen that keeps me from eating junk. I also feel like I have been able to finally change my bad habits and shrunk my stomach, I just can't eat like I used to.....even on my "days off" I still keep it light and track what I eat.
So trying to keep this short, THANK YOU ALL SOOOOO MUCH!!! I am so happy I can't even describe how good losing this weight feels!!!!!
