41 y.o female, 5'7 tall. Starting weight:189 lbs Current Weight:171 lbs. I liked that this pill helped me lose weight, but I still have constipation from it. Take first thing in the AM before breakfast - woeks all day.
I have PCOS and diabetes. Losing weight has been a struggle for me since I can remember. I have done every diet you could imagine and nothing worked until Adipex. I lost 62lbs on it, slow but steady. Hate the side effects and having to count calories, but everything is worth it. I finish my prescription in 6 days and I´m afraid I'm going to gain the weight back cus of PCOS. I still eat healthy and try to keep active, but it cost me so much to get where I am. I will get really depressed if I go back to how it was before :(
I freaked out when I saw 243 on the scale. I knew I was gaining weight, but I didn't realize I'd gained THAT much weight. I went to the doctor and she suggested phentermine. I HAVE LOST 35lbs already and I'm really happy.
I really don´t know why my doctor prescribed me this.. Yes I lost weight, 30lbs to be exact, but the medication is way too expensive and it does the same thing as Adipex + topiramate do. It doesn't make sense to me! Also side effects are HORRIBLE I have to take a break according my physician, but I want to take just Adipex for the next round. Qsymia is TOO expensive and from what I read in other reviews Adipex works just the same... What a rip off
It changed my whole life. I started weighing 250lbs I could not even breath well. Started to take phentermine and after two months I was 20 pounds less and everything changed. Could not be more grateful. Now I am in my last month. Almost a year later Im 100 lbs less and very happy with the results.
After almost 6 months of treatment with Sentis, I can say that I’m very happy with the results. 20 kilos and 4 dress sizes less. My metabolism is really slow and with the pills I felt like I burned more calories. I didn’t use other products during my treatment – my doctor checked my BP and vitals every month and I only had side effects the first 2 months. Now I’m taking a break from the pills until next year.
I was the fat girl since I can remember. The last one in every race or wall, the one who could barely breath when doing sport thanks to respiratory attacks. Until one day I decided to make a change not for aesthetic but for my health, I went to a clinic and started to take Adipex. I was so freaking nervous, first days were really hard, insomnia, constipation, and dry mouth were killing me but I found few tips here in the blog and could get out of it. It was hard to take them early at mornings with empty stomach sometimes I felt like I wanted throw up but never happened (thank God).I kept fighting giving it my all, going to the gym, training and a lot of water. I started this journey at 230lbs. Three and a half months later and I regret nothing! I weigh 180! and I´m still going I just have to wait 2 months to start a new cycle, My new goal is 150. I´m so happy and that´s thanks to phentermine it really changed my life!!
