Hello, I'm 48, single, about 255 and would like to drop about 50. I've been on Phentermine for about 3 days. So far, so good!

Look forward to chatting with a few of you!

Welcome! 50 lbs is a good goal! Be sure to drink plenty of water! Be sure to also eat, even though the phen makes your appetite lower, you still need the nutrition from food. Try to eat every 4 hours so your blood sugar doesn't drop and give you headaches and nausea. Try to eat healthier when you do eat. Pick low fat, low sodium stuff over burgers and fries or whatever your favorite "bad" food is. Exercise makes the weight come off even faster. Good luck to you!

Thanks Kittypie,
I think the water will be the toughest thing. I need to force myself to get into the water habit. I'm sure I can do it.

Water is hard for me too. I put drink mix in mine, the generic of Crystal Light. Its sugar free, caffeine free and carb and sodium free. I use the Great Value kind from Walmart. Fruit punch is my favorite flavor. They also have lemonaide, grape, orange and raspberry tea. Crystal light is good too, but it has 10 calories per packet. The only time I drink plain water is when I work out. For some reason it tastes better when you are dying for something to drink! ha ha

I have a big container of Crystal Light in the fridge. Actually, it's the Target equivilant. Tastes just as good and much cheaper than CL.
I've also got a case of Dasani so I'm well armed!
