Hello. Today starts Take 2 on Phen
I was not real happy with my results or how I felt during take 1. I need some help and encouragement on Take 2 Please : )
About Me:
27 years
5'5"- 189 lbs
Goal - 145

Orginally started 30 mg (doc prescribed)03/07 and was taking consistently for 2 months. I lost only 15lbs. During this time I felt horrible for the most part. Here is a list of my symtoms.

Upset tummy for 1st hour
Dry mouth and difficulty speaking
Aggitated and nervous
rollercoaster emotions: high highs-low lows
constant feeling of anxiety in stomach
thought process was slow or confused
tension in my shoulders and neck
burn out about 3pm- naps everyday
no evening energy

I start work at 5am and take my pill within a half hour of starting. Maybe that is why I get fatigue so early. Maybe I don't eat enough?? I have a 32 water bottle I fill up 3-4 times a day. So water consumption was not the problem. I really hated the anxiety and tension. Any suggestions. I really want to make phen work for me this time. I am trying to combine this with a low carb diet and excercise if I can gather up evening energy.

Please any suggestions please!!

try getting the 37.5 tablets and splitting them half in the morning and half at your lunch. Most of those symptoms are probably from too much in your system at once. Try the 5 htp before bed, it helps you sleep and helps with the anxiety...

Thanks for the advice. Except I am not sure what 5 htp is. Is it a vitamin?

I would just recommend getting a good variety of healthy foods in your system, including lean protein, veggies and fruits. Sounds like you did great with the water.

Some people have talked about taking brief "breaks" while on phen, but I don't know a lot about that. Wish I had better advice for you.

Good luck ....

I agree with splitting the pill and taking the 5-htp .You can get it at Walmart in the vitamin aisle.I "think" it runs about $8 or so,if I remember right.
