Hello everyone. I have been trying to lose weight since I stop breastfeeding in December. My whole life has been and up down battle with weight. The first couple of day on phen were great I felt in control. But then it felt like I wasn't even taking anything. Then I started my period three weeks early. I am not giving up, but I am very discouraged. Sorry to be so negative. I need to lose 40lbs. I am 5'3 and weigh 160. I am glad I found this site. It does help to talk to others. Thanks Heather

Hey--don't give up. Old "Aunt Flo" probably just made your cravings worse. What milligrams are you taking.

My period did the same thing the first month I was on Phen--in fact, it was a little messed up the 2nd month too--but the last month, it was normal.

My starting weight and height were close to the same--I'm an inch shorter though, and those pounds really showed--not an ounce of muscle to start with I don't think!

Take advantage of the phen, and start good habits now! Use sugar busters, the Zone, Atkins, Weight Watchers or some tool to help you during this time. Drink plenty water--at least 64oz., and exercise--even if it is just like walking for 20 min. My doc said just walk till you begin to sweat when I first started, and just that little really helped! Good luck!

Hey! Keep ya head up BH!

Mostly everyone's period does that same thing. how long have you been taking Phen now? give it just a LITTLE time, and trust me, you'll see a BIG difference!
