Hi! I figured since I've posted a couple times, I should probably formally introduce myself.

I'm Shins, a 35 year old mother of 2. I'm not exactly new to phen, although I'm only weighing in for the 3rd week today. So far I'm down about 11 pounds. Very happy. I've lost a total of 45 lbs all together. Did the first 34 with weight watchers over a very long period of time. Had a friend join, we both did pretty well, then schedules got hectic and everything slowed down. So, I was in the doc's office doing my annual physical and he mentioned "a pill" and how I had done so great that I didn't need it. Well, 3 weeks later I went back and asked for it. So far, I'm glad I did.

I live in the midwest on an acreage with my 3 horses, 1 dog, 4 million cats (anyone want a cat?) a bunch of fish, a hamster....I think that's all the critters. My husband I own Harleys and enjoy going for a ride. My first goal was that my saddle bags on my bike would stick out further than the ones on my hips. Goal accomplished!! Now I just want to be one of the skinny biker babe b!tches. Some days I'm pretty close to the last adjective. *LOL* Anyway, on my way to 160, 150 if I can hit it.

Good luck to all!!

Hello Shins, and thanks for your intro. You've had huge success! Congrats!

Im on my 1st week now and so far I've lost 3lbs. Its been 4 years since the last time I used phen. Im 39 and have 3. 2 grown and 1 toddler. I live out in the country and have lots of animals. We have 1 horse, pigeons, chickens, cockatiels and 2 dogs. No Harleys, though my dad is an admirer of them. Stay in touch!

Thanks Audra. The country is the only way to go. Unless you need to go for a walk and its dark outside. I'll admit, I can freak myself out pretty good. *L* Doesn't help that my dog is a very black lab and she loves to run in and out of the ditches. So much for protection.

Good luck to you with your weightloss. I only lost about 3 lbs as well the first week, actually, it's been 3, 3, and 2. But I'm quite happy with that. When I was doing it on my own I was lucky to loose a pound a week.

You looked great at 15. You'll get there. We all will.

Welcome Shins... I am fairly new as well. Started on Phen May 24th after unsuccessfully trying to lose baby weight from having our 2 1/2 year old ! The weight never would budge but maybe 5lbs down. then back up, etc. So far I've done great!

I have 3 children... 2 boys (15 and 6) and then our princess toddler tornado. I'm 33 and grew up in the country as well. My husband and I live in a rural town but plan to buy in the country. We are just 11 miles from my parents ranch though so most of our outdoor time is spent there.

Good luck !!
