“I feel like I have a new lease on life. I am more physically active than I ever have been. I look healthier, but most importantly I feel healthier.”
-Kevin

All my life, I have been on the heavy side. When I was younger kids would pick on me and call me every nasty name in the book referring to my obesity. As I progressed through school I got bigger and bigger and bigger.

About a year and a half ago upon being offered employment at my current workplace, I was required to submit to a pre-employment physical. I stepped on the scale and I was shocked by the number I saw… 402.4 pounds!

The doctor told me that I was pre-hypertensive (high blood pressure) and that I needed to lose weight and he was serious. He discussed the DASH diet with me and I told him I would give it my best effort.

So I started watching what I ate, like a hawk. I started going to the gym 3 times a week, then 4, then 5. Then I came to a plateau and also never feeling full.

I had noticed that while I was on my diet, I never had that satiating feeling, so I spoke to my doctor about this and he recommended phentermine. I didn’t think anything of it at the time, but then I hit another plateau and actually gained 20 lbs. I said to myself this has to stop.

I made another appointment with my doctor and here I am a little over a month later, down 13 pounds thanks to phentermine helping me feel full and curbing my cravings.

I feel like my weight loss journey has helped develop a new me. One that is conscious of the dietary world around me. I’m so glad that phentermine exists.
