Hi all, I am taking the Phen A 139 (37.5mg) and am on day 3 (Oh yeah.. I am new to this forum today).
Immediately I started sweating a lot, like I had a good work out after just walking a short distance from the parking lot to my job. After that I noticed that I sweat a lot anyways on this pill and to add to that, I get the chills. I am Not feeling sick but the sweats and chills are like when I had the flu a good while back (without the body aches and stuff).

On day 2 I was noticing that I would be quite hungry/thristy by the end of the day. I took my pill at 7:30am and my day ended at 6pm. The meals I used to eat before I started the Phen, I would push around food on my plate to fit more on it. This time I had a plate full of spaghetti and 2 slices of garlic bread. No salad. I felt full. Normally I would eat the salad even if I didn't want it just because it traditionally went with the meal.

Today, day 4: Breakfast was a cup full of cubed cantaloupe. No lunch. Dinner was 1 slice of bread, 1 slice of bologna and 1 slice of cheese and 2 tablespoons of egg salad. That's all I wanted, it filled me up Now I am waiting until tonight to eat some 'cookies -n- cream' ice cream..my fave!! I don't even want to eat it though I can taste it and am desiring it in my mind.

I checked my weight last night.. I started out at 192 and was still 192. That's ok though, my body has to work off that plate of spaghetti and what I had the day before

Has anyone experienced the chills and sweating with the blue/white A 139 37.5mg Phen pills?? I believe it is the thermogenic properties of the pills working!

I also am staying up late and am full of energy to do things but my mind is so lazy... When my body feels like going walking, my mind looks up the street at the distance. Then I change my mind and never go! I have to work out today, I was going to start yesterday but my mind talked me out of it. That's the way my mind is used to me being for 4 years. Lazy!! I have to change my whole nutritional lifestyle, I wish I never let myself get this way but there's no point at all in crying over spilled milk. I am very proud of myself and I thank God the most for blessing to do something about it.

I have been taking phen for 4 days now and yes I too get the chills and sweat alot.I noticed it in my sleep too..I wake up alot in the night w/these and when I do I notice that my hair is a little wet and the back of my neck too.
I started at 210 and am now at 206...but I started my period the same day I started the phen..lol..so it could just be pms weight that came off..I hope not though,I hope it was pure..true..nasty fat!
If you find out what the chills and sweating are from and a way to stop them..let me know please.I hate it.

i sweat more than usual too when taking phen. you may want to try taking half of the 37.5mg for a couple weeks. i started at 190 and could not take the whole pill at once. i am still taking only half a pill and may or may not take the other half in the afternoon.

Hey, thank you all for your replies.. So I see that's it's not just me going through this. I will let you all know once I find out about what is causing this. I hope it's fat coming off too! I am moving to my new home today, I seem to be swating even when at rest and all I have done so far is walk around the house and take over my sons tricycle.

I have also noticed that I am feeling the burn in my thighs a lot while doing my normal activities.

I didn't eat all day yesterday except for a small bowl of cereal. Oh yeah, I did have Sunday dinner (Oink Oink!). Today I have been snacking on apples, cantaloupe, grapes and I had a bowl of spanish rice mixed with chili and some crackers on the side. That's all for me today. I have got to lose this weight. I need to nix the large meals so I can lose this ugly fat!!

Hey, it's day four and I have lost 5lbs. I just weighed myself this morning with my clothes on (no shoes). I guess the sweating and chills is the thermogenic effect helping to drop the lbs.

Glad to know the sweating seems "normal" for this medication. I'm on week 5 and haven't stopped sweating since Day 2.

[trigg1313]

I get really hot and sweat throughout the day. I was wondering has anyone been having any problems with their eyes? Mine seem very dry a couple of hours after I take my phen.

[tulsagirl75]

I've had some of that, but I'm pretty sure it's just the increase in heartrate and your body reacting to it. Just be sure to drink LOTS of water!!! You don't want to dehydrate!

[YANIE]

I sweat a whole lot

[wrkinprogress]

Oh yeah! I'm always sweating! It's outrageous. I figure it's my small sacrfice!

[kre8kolor]

Yes, I sweat quite a bit, too... since Day One. I'm almost at week 2 - and I'm losing, so I'm not going to complain too much... at least it makes me FEEL like something's coming off, ya know?
