Weight Loss Pills Advice

Try to find a doctor-assisted weight loss program in your area. I lived in a rural area and there was one in my town. I'm now in a metropolitan area and there are several. I know what you're going through. Using phentermine to curb your appetite and get your mind to stop thinking about food 24/7 is well worth it. You'll get many people telling you not to do it. But if that is the tool that can get you to a place where your body can start operating the way its supposed to, then that is what it takes. My program also has a weekly injection of 3 amino acids that make your body's fat burning process more efficient. The eating plan is a lifestyle change. Its basically low carb. No more than 15 grams of complex carbs at any meal. .One half gram of protein for every pound of LEAN body weight if you are sedentary. 1 gram per every LEAN pound if you are active. Its also basically the Primal way. You can read my blog to get an idea of where I came from, weight-wise. I'm 44 lbs down now and I 'm about 1/3 of my way there. But I feel sooooo much better its not funny. Another thing I'm taking is glucaphage. You can read up on it but it basically keeps your blood sugar level more stable. About 2 months into the program I had to cut my blood pressure dosage by 50%. I hope to discontinue it by the time I hit my goal. Good luck with your journey. Feel free to friend me.

I am not one for weight loss pills but I have been drinking Shakeology from Beachbody and I love it!!!!!! It is a health drink not just a protein drink and I see a difference in my energy, digestion, weight loss. If you have any questions, just let me know

Im currently off the phentermine and I can say its really not coming back I continue to eat as healthy and clean as I can feel free to look at my food diar I can say its really worked for me ............ I also take suppleents as b12 vitamins pref the.one. Based of methylcobalin the others are useless great for energy also I take a multivitamin in the morning as well as l cartinene it helps break down fat to be used as energy feel free to add il be more than happy to assist

I don't like them BUT I HAD TO AT A POINT I KNOW WHERE YOUR COMING FROM...Go to your doctor which is what i think is best...everyone is different and will not have the same results so I don't want to tell you what worked for me and it may not work for you and I feel bad...

know im here and anyone reading feel free to send friend request and message if you need someone to talk to:)

I took Phentermine/adipex for about 3 months to jump start my weight loss. I lost about 25 lbs, and I've kept that off and lost more by watching my intake and increasing my activity level. While I wasn't wild about taking diet pills, I knew I needed some help to break my attachment to food and help me reframe that association to food=fuel instead of food=comfort. I was under a doctor's supervision the entire time, and that is (IMHO) the only safe way to take a stimulant like Phentermine.

Don't do adipex!! my doctor and I just talked about these pills. She refuses to prescribe them because they cause a heart condition that CAN NOT be fixed. doctor's prescribe them to patients for 3 months, they go off 'em, and most ppl put the weight right back on plus. A very good friend of mine was taking them and she started dropping pounds like crazy, but her doc never mentioned the side effects to her. I'm sure they are in an insert with the prescription, but how many ppl read those, or take em seriously. My doc says they are one of, if not the number one, most dangerous drugs out there. Plus you have to keep going to the doctor like every 2wks or something to be weighed............all they are are $$$$$$ signs to the doctor. I have another friend who takes alli, but instead of 3 a day like it says, she only takes one around lunch time and she says that is working for her. Slimquick worked for me, I just got lazy and stopped taking them last year. I hope you find something that works for you, just make sure you do a lot of research before you decide

I was on them, I started with Bontril....it causes anxiety I think, but it works....while you are on it....it is prescription and it suppresses the CNS, you wont feel hungry AT ALL and you will have to force yourself to eat....you have to see the doc monthly and can only get the script filled one month at a time. (if your doc knows what he is doing) You can become dependent on them. they can give you super bad headaches after awhile, they did me. Six months was the amt of time you can be on them then I think we switched...I stockpiled them, only took one every other day, you eventually become used to them and they stop working, hence the time limit.

2nd one was adipex, less anxiety, more dry mouth, heart palpitations....they too work....but again you become immune and must find something new....once you go off them you gain all the weight back....its a vicious cycle.

I had good results on them though, I lost 40 lbs, but the side effects of the bontril were far worse then adipex, the thing is the phentermine is the safer part of the banned drug phen phen.

Be careful, I still have mine, I take one every now and then, they also will keep you awake and make your heart race....so I use them once in awhile cause I work night shift....:0

They can be a helpful tool under Dr supervision, and I mean strict supervision. Your dr should monitor blood work to make sure you are eating and you should seek advice from a nutritionist. If you do not adjust your behavior and commit to lifestyle changes, this risk is not worth it. If your Dr is worth anything, he will not continue to let you have them if you aren't following strict rules.

Like most have said, if this is the direction you're wanting to go, definitely see a doctor who specializes in this. Most will check your thyroids and go over what you have done. What works, and what doesn't. I did go see a doctor, and he took my blood, and checked my thyroid and stuff. He gave me a nutritional "diet" plan to stick to.. All three meals and snacks for the week.. He also gave me a B12 shot, and some diet pills. I didn't stick with any of it though. It just honestly didn't "work" for me. I hated how the diet pills made me feel, and I didn't see any results. They gave me TONS of energy. So much that if i took half of one at 6am, i couldn't sleep until about 4am the next morning, and I had to be right back up at 6.. Not to mention it gave me TERRIBLE mood swings. I saw on the consent form that it could cause "psychological effects". As a psychology major this really worried me. I asked the doctor about it and he told me "don't worry about that". I notice after taking one, I get EXTREMELY HAPPY, in such a great mood...and within just a few hours, I am super pissed and I don't want to deal with or talk to anyone. For me, it wasn't worth it. I am a very happy person, and would rather not "come down" from this "drug". I would say, take B12 pills, it's just b12 vitamin, and will give you energy and boost your metabolism. Take multivitamins. Eat more veggies than you can stand, eat fruit when you get a sweet tooth. Buy plates that contrast with your food so when you're fixing a meal you don't over load your plate. Use a small plate VS and large plate. Remember, as humans we're only supposed to eat about the size of our fists. Eat six small meals instead of three large and three snacks... Eat the most in the morning, so that your body burns it through the day..Through out the day eat smaller and smaller meals..Eat when you're hungry, but not when you're bored or upset. Give into your cravings, but in moderation. Don't deprive yourself. Work harder when your mind is telling you you're too tired. Drink tons of water, and have patience. GOOD LUCK
