    Default Phentermine

    Has any one tried phentermine? One of my regulars is a weight loss dr and gave me a free bottle. I looked it up online and it sounds like it's pretty strong it's made for obese people. I only want to lose a cpl lbs, I'd like to hear some reviews if anyone can.

    I used it years ago and lost a few pounds. Try taking half a pill at first to see how you react to it. I didn't have any side affects from it but some people I know who have taken it have gotten the jitters.

    Thanks I was thinking about doing that but I read there's a time release coating on it and people said breaking it in half might make the side effects worse! I'll probably ask the dr about it.

    I used it about a year and a half ago.

    I had headaches, insomnia, and my right hand randomly trembled a lot, and I had foggy vision and got dizzy randomly.

    It basically makes you not hungry, so you don't eat, and you have more energy so you move more. That's how you lose the weight.

    You have to be careful you still eat some food.

    I lost about 10 lbs and when I got off the phentermine I gained 5 back.

    The side effects are the main reason I got off it. I didn't like that.

    Sorry for the late reply. Have been having a really shitty month.


    It took a bit, but yeah, I did stop having the side effects. It's like going through withdrawl. The headaches, for me, were the worst. However, I read on the label thing they gave to me that the trembling can be permanent in some people. Not for me, though.

    Unless you get it online through a non-official vendor site like through canada or something, it's Prescription.

    ^^ I wish you luck with it! Keeping the weight off once you're off the Phentermine is difficult, since essentially it's an appetite suppressent and also gives you a TON of energy. Once you're off it, you'll be hungry again with normal energy levels.

    Let us know how it goes!

    I didn't take it but I gave it to my boss since he was trying to lose weight. He hasn't eaten anything in a week, when I asked him about it he said he's eaten like half a strawberry. Lol he also said that the first 2 nights he could barely sleep.

    That's phentermin what I had was phentermine. And it wasn't capsules filled with a herbal supplement. It's a tiny white pill with blue dots.

    I took phentermine for a total of 2 months, I asked for the highest dosage because it was the tablet, 37.5. I broke this in half until I felt my body was used to it. It helped me curb the sweet cravings. I went from about 176 to 125, over time NOT in 2 months. At times I would take sleeping aids 30 to 45 minutes before bed. I would and still go to the gym for an hour after work and after I put my children down to sleep. There's a website you can go to for forums and to read other's experience with this. I personally recommend it for short periods of time, but don't rely on the magic pill to do all the work for you. Deff need to work out and change your eating habits....good luck!!

    Did you guys just ask your doctor for it for the purpose of losing weight? Or how do you get it prescribed? I'd like to lose 30 pounds. I weigh 130 pounds right now.

    I reaaaaally want to try Phentermine, but you can only get it from doctors? I can't get insurance (fuck lupus), and I don't think a doctor would prescribe it to me because I'm not overweight.

    Is there anywhere you can order Phentermine online? I want to order a high dose, take half a pill. I'm only looking to lose about 12 lbs or so and diet + exercise will not help me so this seems like a good option.

    I found a doc who prescribes it and went to her. Just told her I wanted to lose weight after my baby and she offered it. If she hadn't offered it, I would've told I had heard about Phentermine and was wondering about it and if it would work for me.

    My insurance didn't cover it, so it was a bit pricey since I had to pay for the doc visit and the medication.

    I wouldn't trust an online pharmacy. You can't be sure of what you're getting.

    Phentermine is supposed to be only prescribed to people with a BMI of 27 and above which they are supposed to write ur BMI on the script. It is also supposed to be prescribed for one month at a time with a max (I think) of 3 months unless your morbidly obese. Those are the laws that pharmacists/drs are supposed to follow.... but they are pretty loose with following them. I know several pharmacists that refuse to carry it in their pharmacy's. Just an FYI that you may have problems obtaining it from some Drs

    Would that be a healthy weight for your body??? I'm not trying to police your personal preferences, but that sounds like a lot of weight to lose for someone who only weighs 130 lbs.

    I'm only 5 feet. I used to weigh 100 pounds, and I gained 30 pounds from birth control. So yeah, 130 pounds is a lot for someone my height. 100 pounds is ideal for someone who is 4'11-5'2.

    I look like I weigh less than I do, but the scale doesn't lie.

    I hear ya. Sorry, I didn't mean to be that person who's all like "Betch, gain weight!" I just have a very different body type, and it'd be freaky shit if I lost 30 lbs! (5'7" and a muscular 145). I look like I weight 120, but like you said, the scale doesn't lie!

    Oh yeah, I totally understand. If I was your height, 100 pounds would be extremely unhealthy. It's just depressing going from a size 00-2 to a size 6.

    Since you're muscular, you should try measuring your waist instead of weighing yourself since muscle weighs more than fat. Waist measurements are a lot more accurate anyway.
