Default Hi Everyone
Hi Everyone, I have been visiting this site for about a month since I started Phen (6/508). I finally registered so that I could participate in all the discussions. I have found this website and the people on it very inspiring over the last month. I started Phen because I had been gaining weight after a divorce then gaining more weight after meeting Mr. Right and euphorically eating. I guess you could definitely call me an emotional eater. So far, I have loved Phen. Looking forward to gettting to know all of you better.
Can anyone tell me how to post that weight loss ticker on my threads. Thanks =)

Hi and it's nice to meet you. Follow the link from someone elses to the site and make one. Then post it in your signature. Click on the link at the top just above the forum post that says User CP. That will take you to your editing page.

Unhappy HI
Hello!
I have been reading this website for a few weeks and decided to join, even though I am not on meds at this time. I have taken adipex before and lost a ton of weight - the only thing is, I was paying out of pocket ($213 a month) to go to a "weight loss" dr., who does not take insurance...blah! My primary care dr. will not give me any meds., he has told me over and over to join weight watchers - I did and I gained 6 pounds!!! They make you eat all of your points, and it is too much food for me!
I am also 2pts. away from being labeled with "hypothyroidism" and I am not on meds for that either...needless to say, I am at my highest weight ever and am literally gaining weight by the day...no joke! I am miserable - no matter what I do, I CANNOT lose! I am 26, very active and I eat like a bird, HELP!!!
How are all of you getting your meds.? Do you go to a specialist, weight loss dr., regular dr., etc?

I am going to a weight loss clinic. It costs 100 dollars a month for the visits and pills. Having borderline hypothriodism is going to make it hard to loose weight if it is not under control. I hope you can find someone else to treat you. It sounds like you are doing everything right with the exercise and portions. Keep me posted

ok, I just went to the site and made my ticker and then did what Sivad said to do and went to the link on the left side of the page that says Edit Signature and posted the bbCode into that and saved it....but I guess I won't really know if it actually works until I post this..I guess we'll see

Jacks, I think you need a different doctor. Your doctor may think they have your best interests at heart but it is obvious to me as it is to you that they are bias. Start going to a different doctor who will take care of you. Ask around to find a new one. I get my Phen from my doctor and I've only filled the ** once, it cost 19.95 (my insurance won't cover it) for the generic brand 30mg at Walmart for one month. Unfortunately I have a huge deductible on my insurance so I have to pay $79 per doctor visit too. Ugh! Anyway you can call different pharmacies and ask how much it is for phentermine either 15/30/37.5 mg, then you'll be prepared when you go to your new doctor who will prescribe it for you! (in case your insurance won't cover it)
