New here & hoping I'm doing this right! - Phentermine.com

Hey all,

I just found your site the other night and have been reading your posts and decided to become a member. You all are so inspiring!!!

I am starting Phen tomorrow. I had taken this back in 2000 after the birth of my son and it worked wonders. I don't recall why I stopped taking it at the time. I do remember it made me feel real jittery though.

I've been dieting on and off for a few months just watching my carbs and have managed to pull off 31 lbs. I'm wanting more of a push so I called my doctor and asked if he would call it in for me and Wa La he did.

I recall in 2000 that my insurance paid for it, but my local pharmacy doesn't accept my insurance, so I have to go to the next town to get it. My pharmacy told me it was only $28.00 cash price, so I just bought it there. I figured my co pay was 25$ for generic and having to drive 70 miles round trip with a suburban that gets 6 miles to the gallon wasn't worth it!!

So... I look forward to meeting everyone. Hopefully I will be able to find my way back here tomorrow and find my posts. I can't wait to get to know everyone!!

Welcome!

Congrats on that 31 lbs loss! That's fantastic.
You'll find a lot of support and advice if you want it around here - every one is willing to share their 2 cents.

My advice is take your measurements before you start - that way, when the pounds stop falling off you can measure and see you are still losing inches (gaining muscle) and it's not so discouraging as the stand still numbers on the scale.

Remember to plan! Plan your meals and when you can get some time to exercise. If you don't plan to succeed you can be sure to plan to fail.

Grocery shop - Get those Good For you Foods in the house, so when you eat, you are eating right.

Ok, that's my 6:30am Pep talk! LOL

Good luck on your 2nd round with Phen!

Welcome! I don't blame you! Gas prices are ridiculous! I am fortunate that I traded in my Montero last summer. I would be in trouble if I hadn't!

So far I'm addicted to this site. The people here are helpful, inspiring, and very patient with my newbie posts and questions.

Congrats on your 31 pounds so far. That's definitely significant.
