    Congrats on joining and making the life change!!!

    I'm sure you've seen and read the side effects to Adipex. I took it and while it was very effective, I gained my weight back within 2 months, even while maintaining my exercise and diet regimen. If it works for you, awesome, but I say ditch the pills and lose it for good!!

    Good luck :flowerforyou:

    I was taking adipex and stopped,,,I had luck with it but I did'nt change my lifestyle and the weight came back quick after stopping...If you are gonna take them it is important that you change your way of eating and exercise routine as well so the weight does'nt come back when you stop taking them....
    and when you do stop you have to continue to eat right and exercise or it will come back quickly..
    Welcome to MFP and good luck to you..

    Hi welcome to the site and good luck! I also work 2 jobs and it is hard to workout and eat right. I started TurboJam workouts and watching my calorie intake so my goal is to lose 35 lbs by the end of summer.
