Smile New Here and to Phen.
Hello All.
I want to thank all of you for sharing your inspiring stories and showing such care and support for others taking Phen. This forum seems like a very safe and supportive place for someone like me. Thank you for your kindness!

I started taking again today after about six years. I live in Middle Tennessee and travel for work a majority of the time. I've recently gained excessive weight on the road and hope to lose forty pounds over the next four or five months. I'll be on a high protein/low carb diet and hope to exercise 3-5 times per week.

Again, thanks for making a safe place for newbies like me! I'm sure I'll have tons of questions soon.

Hope you're all having a beautiful week!
Miss Ann

W-e-l-c-o-m-e!!!

I am also looking to lose about 40 as my ultimate goal, 20 to start as my mini-goal. I'm a low carber who fell off the wagon, started working longer hours, eating more sugary snacks for energy and now I am regrouping to get myself back. I started phen last week and am down 8 lbs. I love this forum and it helps to read and talk with people who are in the same struggle. Good luck to us both.

Welcome - sounds like you have a great plan in place. Don't forget to get all your water in - however that might be inconvenient since you are on the road a lot, but try! lol

I'm in Chattanooga! Us Tennesseans can so do this.

GREAT idea starting w/ a picture to keep you focused, you'll be able to fit back in that dress in no time. Start thinking about your 2nd goal.

Good luck Miss Ann! I just started Phen on Monday and am down 6 lbs in 4 days. Probably water - but I don't care - I haven't see 211 in a few years! I live in Austin, TX and am going back home in September to see my husbands family and my friends that I grew up with and wanted to look good after not seeing anyone for 2 years. I thought being here in nice weather would get me out exercising more and getting tan, but it didn't work! I also joined Curves 2 months ago and lost 15" (no lbs) since I started and work out 4 to 5x per week. I hope with helps with my weight loss! If anyone one here has any tips I'm all ears!
