Hello everyone, I'm Sally-Ann & I live in the UK. I am only 5'2" tall but weigh 217 lbs, although I'm still fit & healthy. I have decided to do something about my weight and am considering using Phentermine, is it successful? Also, does anyone know where I can buy it in the UK, that's if there are any UK members here that know of suppliers!

Hi Sally-Ann,

I'm from Newcastle and have been taking Phen for just over 2 weeks. I've lost 7.5lbs so far and am really pleased with how I'm feeling.

I'm getting the tablets from the National Slimming Centre which I believe has branches nationwide. To be honest, the office was a little dodgy but the tablets are great! It costs £53 a month or you can pay weekly. Whereabouts do you live?

Please feel free to get in touch if you have any more questions.

Good luck!

Helen

Hi Helen, thanks for that! I'm in Southampton & I think there is a clinic near me, so I will look it up & go along. Did you specifically ask for them or were they offered to you?

Hi Sally-Ann,

From what I can understand phen is the only medication the slimming centres give out. I made an appointment over the phone, had a brief consultation with who I presume was a receptionist(!) who measured and weighted me and then I saw their doctor who worked out my BMI etc.

There didn't seem to be any choice in the drug given out - I've been put on the 37.5 tablet and I think this is standard practice for them. I was then given some leaflets and sent on my way. I did my own research before taking it which lead me to this website.

It might be worth checking out the site for the slimming centre or just giving them a call for a chat. Knowing Newcastle this is probably the only suspect centre in the country!

Let me know how you get on,

Helen

Hi
I went to the docs today not knowing that phentermine has been illegal for the past 10 years and asking for it lol. I live in rhyl n wales. My gp wouldnt give me any as i have a heart problem that is being reviewed due to my weight !! He said i would be able to get it from a dodgy slimming clinic but it would be fatal ...i really want to get this to lose 4 stone asap . collettex
