[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I made an appointment with Be Lite in Fairfax.  I saw on their website, it appears they favor the approach of phentermine plus 5HTP.  I want to try the phen pro, and it looks like they do offer trazodone.  Can I just ask for it?  Is that weird?

I went to Be Lite after going to Dr. Anchors (because it was closer).  They compound their own phentermine and give it to you in 15 (mg?) pills. I found it hard to mimic the effect of the prescription strength 37.5 that you get with Dr. A.  30 was too little and 45 was too much.  I also found the 5-HTP/carbidopa didn't really do anything for cravings.  YMMV.  [/quote]

Are they willing to change things up if it's not working?  I guess I see the benefit of not going for the most potent dose right away. [/quote]

Yes, they are. I started slow - 15 mg, I think - and then you have a follow up one week after your first appointment. They increased my dosage to 30mg based on what I described. After a few months, they increased my dosage again because the effects were less and I had stalled. The highest was 45mg. Once I'd lost all I wanted to (25 lbs) after 5 months, I'm weaning off this month. That may sound slow to some, but I was thrilled. I lose weight very slowly, but at least I finally lost it!

I'm on 15 mg a day now and have two more weeks left til I'm out. I was very worried my appetite would come raging back and I'd start to creep up, but I've gotten used to eating about 1200 calories a day and I'm SO much more mindful about food choices and needless snacking and desserts because I've been creating better habits for six months now. My stomach has shrunken and I've gotten in the pattern of saying no to dessert, and being satisfied with just having a few bites once in awhile. I haven't been this thin since I got married 20 years ago and it feels so good. I've had to buy all new clothes. Even my underwear were falling off of me and some of my shoes are too big! I have spent more than I should on new clothes and have packed all of my old ones away to donate.
