1st day of my 4th week on phentermine !

And iv lost 10lbs total !

I was worried it had stopped working but im losing again ! Woohooo 🎊

Keeping my calories around about 1300-1600, usually somewhere in the middle.

Short walks 2-3 times a day

Lots of water and protein but I’m not eating super low carb which is fine with me

Getting physically exhausted really easily

Iv been taking the phentermine for a few weeks now. At first it gave me soo much energy, and it still does …but whenever I do anything the slightest bit physical, especially if I’m using my arms, my body gets exhausted really quickly, it’s ridiculous.

Is this related to phentermine? Whats going on ?

Lost but now regaining, wth

I had need steadily losing weight for the first two weeks, but now, at the start of the third week, Iv gained back about a pound ? Now I’m feeling less hopeful that phentermine is going to work for me :(

Any encouragement or advice to get the weight to start going down again ?

I never lost a huge amount like some people do either, just like 7-8lbs in two weeks (which I realize is still pretty good) I just don’t understand why the scale is now going up again …

Down 7lbs in 11 days

Starting weight at the doctors on April 27th was 258lbs at 5’4”

11days on phentermine and I’m down to 251 on my home scale

So around 7-ish pounds lost ….im happy but worried its only water weight and surely nothing would reeeally work for me losing *actual* weight 😟🙄 …so I await further loss

I’ve been tracking my calories and keep it between 1200 and 1500 ..and take 3-4 short walks a day about 8-10 minutes each

No appetite suppression

So I realize it has only been a little less than a week, but I thought this medication started working immediately.

No appetite suppression !

I was on 15mg, now taking 30mg past couple days..still nothing

Could it start working all of a sudden or am I a non responder ?
