Life after Phentermine....
Hi everyone! Ok so I am the one who posted about adipex- which is phentermine but I think just a brand name.
Anyways, I am on day 2 of my prescription. I actually like it so far! I don't know if it's just a placebo effect but I don't feel as hungry or like I really desire to eat at inopportune times (ie- snacking out of boredom and watching TV).
But however- what if I take it for a month or two, lose twenty pounds, and then gradually go off it...am I doomed to gain it all back? I am a bit confused about it though---are you supposed to still eat sensibly when you are on it? B/c I know it is an appetite suppressant but if I am still eating the same sensible amount before and after then how will I lose weight?
Someone please respond, I would really really like to talk to someone who is also taking it/ has taken it and had a successful maintenance of weight loss after going off it!
you are supposed to dvelope a health eating and exercise habbit while taking phentermine so when you do go off it you will not gain your weight back. <that is what my doctor told me anyway. Because i guess some people use it as a magic pill thinking it will get the weight off and keep it off once you are off of it but she had told me that if you dont eat and exercise and continue to do so after then you will gain it all back and then some. So just be careful. and Good Luck.
Hi I was wondering how you were doing on the Apidex? I'm considering trying phentermine, and was curious to know if Apidex produces better results. Please let me know what kind of results you've had and how you feel. Thanks!!!
