PHEN - Phentermine.com

Hello ... I know I am going to sound a bit stupid with this question ... but ... When you all say "Phen" ... is that just Phentermine in a shortened slang form? Or is it something else all together? And why is it under the heading of "Phen-Fen?" Didn't they take Phen-Fen off the market?
I would like to order some ... but I sure don't want to pay that price if it does not work ... one gal on here said that she has been on it for 3 weeks and hasn't lost a single pound. Can anyone answer these questions for me?
Thanks. Sharron

Hi SharronE,
Yes Phen is short for phentermine. They took fenfluramine the other half of the phen/fen combo off the market. All people have different reactions to the drug. I myself love it because it keeps me from bingeing. Some people don't like the side-effects others don't have any side-effects. It all just depends on how your body ajust.

Hope this helps.
Jennifer

Oh also, If you post up top at "my experience with phen" more people will read your posts. No one really knows why this is still on here.

Well I paid the price and am glad I did!!! After my second child I never got back down to where I needed to be ~ after my third was 7 months old and I couldn't get below 170 lbs or a size 12(5~3 is a little short for that). I ordered a 90 day supply before thanksgiving and over the holidays lost 25 lbs! I'm at -30 total and very confortable in loose fitting 8's! I honestly save more than $3 a day on food! It took ALL of my desire! I could eat a whole bag of Oreos before. Now if I have one and it doesn't taste as good as I think it should ~ I just walk away! I hate to admit it, but I did no extra exercise during this time and I do eat whatever I want ~ I just usually don't want! Let me know if you find a deal better than $3 per pill! Good luck!

Thankyou all for letting me know your input on my question! I went to the doctor and got a prescription for Phentermine ... he only would give me an ** for 3 months ... I have been on them for a month now and I have not lost a single pound! I am so depressed about it! I eat only 1 meal a day anyway ... always have ... but nothing is working for me ... I think I need a stronger pill. I believe the blue ones I have are not the strongest???

i hate to be the bearer of bad news, but you need to eat more during the day. i was doing the same thing you are by not eating during the day and didn't lose any weight. i finally went to the doc the other day to get meds and he told me that i needed nutrition...aka FOOD. but the trick is to eat healthy foods, like fruits and veggies, and exercise!!! in a week and a half (without being on meds yet) i lost six pounds watching what i eat and walking. i start the meds tomorrow...good luck to you!
