Hey guys, I am brand spankin new! Im so excited about it too. I just started Phentermine yesterday. I cant believe how it curves my appetite, I had to make myself eat! I know the body needs it so I ate anyway. Anyway, I dont know much about Phen, but I am excited to see the results. I cant believe that taking one little pill a day does all that weight loss. I sure hope it works for me. Does everyone just take one pill a day or is there some pills you can take more than once. Let me know. Thanks and its sure nice to meet everyone.

Welcome aboard! I just started Tuesday so I am new too. A girl I know takes 1 1/2 of the 37.5 (her dr. prescribed it) because just one pill lost it's effect after a month, everyone is different. Just see how it goes.

What do you mean that the pill lost its effect? Do you mean she stopped losing, or did you mean that she couldnt feel and side effects from taking it. To be honest, I havent felt any side effects at all besides Im just not hungry. I sure hope that I have a good dosage, I would be so disappointed if I didnt see results. I am on 37.5 and instructed to take once daily in the morning on empty stomach. Let me know, and thanks for all the replies

Hi, and welcome. What everyone means is that after a while your body builds up a tolerance to the drug and its not as effective, so you may start feeling the hunger pangs again. That is why instead of Phen/Fen (since Fen is banned) many doctors now prescribe Phen-Pro, which is a cocktail of Phentermine and some type of mild antidepressant. The antidepressant apparently helps to keep the Phen effective for a longer period of time. I'm currently taking the 30 mg blue/white capsule and could see myself going up to the 37.5 mg next month. The first few days I too had to force myself to eat. I still don't think about eating, or eat out of boredom like I used to but I know this dosage will eventually wear off. But at least I've trained myself to make more healthy choices and eat smaller portions. I've been on for about 10 days and have lost 8 lbs. Good luck!
