Hello All:

I am Chris, I am a mom of 2 (11 and 2), wife and I work full time. I have been taking phen since 4/11 and still trying to deal with the side effects. I get very jittery and can not sleep well. I have lost about 5 lbs but probably would have lost more if I had taken it over the weekend....I know stupid me. I work out a lot really into spinning classes. Have any of you noticed that you sweat more since taking it? When I leave the class I am soaked. Well I love reading what everyone has to say, you all seem to supportive.

Chris

As everyone else said the side effects do go away. Best advice is to take it early before breakfast.

I also have noticed you sweat more. No matter how many times a day or the activity. Just drink plenty of water and keep up the work.

(You shouldn't skip otherwise your body will start over)

Welcome to the forum and congrats on your weight loss. I have not noticed increased sweating, but it doesn't mean that I am not experiencing it. After a run or power walk using the incline, it looks like someone has poured a bucket of water on me. Make sure you replenish all of the fluids that you are losing.

Lost 16.4 lbs in 6 weeks on phen
Lost additonal 9.6 after phen from 4-9-08 to 6-20-08

DESPERATELY TRYING TO MAINTAIN!

Thank you all for your welcome, no more hiding in the shadows, it is good to know that the side effects will go away. I did not think about it but it makes since that if I skip a few days that the effects will start over.
