Hi, there,

I first tried phen March of 06. I weighed 195 and got down to 175 by July of 06. The following month, I got remarried, started nursing school and life was crazy. I didn't keep up with the phen but mainted by 20lb weight loss for about 6 months. The weight started creeping back up, and now 18 months after started phen I have gained back all the weight plus about 9 pounds. It's my own fault because I knew it was happening and didn't do anything about it. So, I am going back to the dr. on Tuesday and starting back up again. My goal is my original goal of 160. I am very determined this time but need encouragement on one thing:

I did start phen up again about 6 months ago but only lasted about a week because I got horrible neck and upper back aches. I have neck and back issues anyways but they are usually kept under control, but when starting the phen the 2nd time, the muscle spasms were unbearable. I am afraid it will start again and I won't ride it out. I think I had them the first time, but they wore off pretty quickly. Anyone else have these issues too? Oh, and headaches as well, but from what I've read here, that's pretty common.

Thanks for your help!
