Everything in my life was falling into place and I was exactly where I wanted to be in life except for my weight.

I had been fighting with it since I was about 15 years old, and no matter what I tried it would come back. So finally I wanted to change my way of living so that I’m healthier and give my confidence a boost.

Phentermine = No More YoYoing

Hello 🙂 So far I have lost exactly 55 pounds on phentermine.

I started in September at 230 🙁 I have never been this heavy in my life, always had weight issues since I was a kid but never went over the 200 mark until I turned 21.

I tried dieting and would lose 15-20 pounds but it would always come back. So I finally went to my family doctor who prescribed me phentermine.

In the first month I lost a total of 30 pounds! I did follow the basic rules of healthy eating, but I also have a very physical job, so I would be on my feet 8-10 hours a day. I didn’t need to go to the gym.

After the first month the weight loss slowed down, and I would lose 2-3 pounds per week. At times my weight would stay the same for two weeks and I would get frustrated, but as soon as I saw even a pound less I would not stress about it and continued taking phentermine.

My biggest challenge was making sure to eat throughout the day. Some days I get so busy that I forget to eat!

It’s great to go shopping now though and be able to get cute things that they never made in my old size.
