[quote=Anonymous]I went in late April after reading this site, and having a good friend mention "phentermine' and am down almost 15 lbs, in five weeks. I'd like to take off about 60 in total.

The wired feeling tamps down after a while but if I "look" for it, I can usually tell i'm still buzzing a little, just much more able to focus when needed than the first week.
I take half at 7 am and another half around lunch.
I haven't experienced a lot of the side effects good or bad - no issues with dry mouth, sleeping or going to the bathroom. But never was completely disinterested in food either. I would say that it allows me to delay if needed. Before I was feeling like I was having low blood sugar attacks around 10am and MUST EAT SOMETHING RIGHT NOW to ward that off. Now I have breakfast, lunch and dinner - very much cut out the snacking.
I have considerably increased my water intake (from seltzer/sparkling or iced tea) and my skin appreciates that.

I did it in conjunction with another plan (WW Points+, not current program) because I wanted to be able to make sure I was eating enough and I was able to keep myself accountable once the meds were removed from the equation.
I also created a spreadsheet bc Dr. Anchors wants you to weigh yourself daily and I felt that I was beating myself up day to day for small gains or no loss days, when the general trend has been quite positive - that has been really helpful to me to look at this as a marathon, not a sprint. Also, it's helped clarify to me that eating enough is important, as the days that I significantly under eat doesn't get the big loss I would have thought. If I eat right around my daily points - which is quite easy without snacks and some weekly planning before grocery shopping, I'm moving in the right direction.

I miss coffee. I have been drinking decaf bc I enjoy the act of having a cup of coffee in the morning, but decaf is not the same. It has allowed me to give up sweetening my coffee, and I'm just drinking it with a splash of half and half.
