Phentermine

I just got a prescription to start taking Phentermine.  Can anyone give me some feed back on this pill?  What kind of results have you had, how did you take it and how much, did you change your eatting habits?  
Also I heard this makes you have bad mood swings, has anyone had any problems with it?

My dr. put me on Phentermine last Thursday, and i have already lost 5.5 lbs!! Before i tried everything to lose the weight, and nothing even budged it. With a new diet, and no more pop, along with ALOT of water, i think i'm off to a pretty good start!!

The Pharmacist where I get my scripts from is also on this.she has lost 60lbs ..I asked her about getting it online. Maybe its because its what she "has" to say...but she said that most of the time the things you get online without a Dr. prescription are usually not the real deal.  You probably should have your blood tested and a Dr. supervision with this.  Thats only my opinion...GOOD LUCK!

I have been on Phentermine for one month and I have lost 21 lbs. My doctor gave me another 30 days and I hope to have the same results.  This pill takes your tiredness away and makes you want to move around.  Of COURSE my food has changed as well...I eat low calorie cereals with fruit for breakfast...veggies and fruits for snacks and just try to maintain a "healthy" lifestyle..  I LOVE BREAD and CHOCOLATE..BIG TIME...and I find if I have to indulge..I eat a Weight Watcher Zinger...80 calories.   Once someone says..."you losing weight"?..Thats ALL the motivation you need!!  After a week of the pills...I started walking 3 times a week...one mile...then 2 now I am up to 5.  You will see a dramatic difference with exercise...not killing yourself with running...basic walking! However doing alot of research..I found that the first 30 minutes of exercise burns of "sugar" in your system...the rest of the time fat is burned. I have also found that having a day to eat without counting calories is ok....your body needs a little "change" to keep it guessing!!!  Good LUCk!!

Oh and I am doing the south beach diet, it really works well. I bought the book " the south beach diet" written by dr agaston and it gives you all the recipes to follow with explanations to why and what the new food choices are doing to help your body lose weight and stay healthy. It really really works. I lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. I need the phentermine because I also have kids, and its so hard for me to resist certain foods when I am cooking for them, and the snacks that they eat. I try to give my kids heathly foods also, but I am sure you know what I mean with all the goodies that kids want and love!
