[JenniferLauren]

Hello! My name is Jenn, and I was prescribed to Phen 37.5 mg tablets. I break it in half, and take a half at 7:30a and then I take another one at 12. I am absolutly not hungry and dont even get any craving to eat until like 3 or 4. I do eat in the afternoon sometimes though like maybe an apple or bananna, just so at night my cravings wont be so strong. I started Phen 10/06/06. I havnt got on the scale yet... haha! Im waiting until my 2 week check up at the drs! Good thing I dont have a scale! LOL!!! Anyways.... Im 5'2, and 219lbs (at least that was the weight at the drs on 10/06/06. So im short and round! Sooooo HELLO TO EVERYONE!

Hi Jenn and Welcome.

I just wanted to add that even if you don't feel like eating you should still eat regularly so that your body goes into starvation mode which will make it more difficult to keep the weight off. I may have misread what you said but I understand not even feeling hungry and having to make sure I eat. It's also important to make sure you have "fuel" for your body when you workout.

I am from Miamisburg, Ohio. Near Dayton area. But in a nice area. ) Anyways... I need to go to the grocery store and get some things to be able to make the right choices when I eat. Its hard when you live with an extreamly hungry boyfriend! LOL!

Apparently I should read before I hit the Post button. I meant to say you should eat so your body DOESN'T go into starvation mode.

My fingers are faster than my brain sometimes.

I understand living with people with good appetites. My husband is the same way although he should be on the same plan as me
