How fast should the weight come off?

[Jazmine]

I have been taking Phentermine for 5 days, and although I have noticed a huge change in appetite and energy, I haven't noticed any physical weight loss. How long before you should first notice the weight coming off?? I read in another topic someone lost 8ibs in 7 days?? how would that be achieved??

Jazmine,
Welcome. How fast and how much depends on how much you have to lose. Many of the people who lose large amount have 100plus pounds to lose so it will come off quickly at first. If you only have 20 or so pounds it will come off slower. Also exercise is a major factor. If you execise(I like to walk 2 miles 4x a week) You will notice the scale may not let you know you are losing but the way your clothes fit will. Good Luck!

I think I'm just nervous about it not working for me.....I am drinking slim fast for breakfast because I'm not hungry in the mornings, but the doc told me to eat....for lunch I will usually have 1/2 turkey sandwich on wheat bread and then whatever for dinner, I don't limit myself if I'm craving somthing, but I have noticed a huge difference in portion size, and I never have the urge to snack......does Phen work if you don't follow a pretty strict diet?? My boyfriend and I usually exercise about 4 times a week, and then I do a little weight toning......I'm on the blue/clear gelcap looking Phen (30mg)the other people I know who are taking Phen are on the 37.5mg white tablets....do those work better?? I was also thinking about not eating carbs for lunch or dinner, but since I'm at work and don't cook are there any suggestions for a no carb lunch????

well, as far as what ones work better. I have been on both and it is just what works better for you. the only difference between the two really is the 30mg is a slow release and the 37.5 is an all at once.
