Weight Loss
"I started taking Phentermine 37.5 mg every morning about a month ago. I&#039;ve always eaten pretty healthy, but after being laid up for 3 months after surgery, I gained 14 lbs and couldn&#039;t shake it off. In the first week, I lost 6 lbs. Starting the second week, I gained 4 back. Nowhere in the prescription information did it tell me that alcohol has an OPPOSITE effect on the medicine. I stopped drinking, and am steadily losing 2-4 lbs per week. Only losing 10 lbs in the first month is discouraging compared to some of the reviews I&#039;ve read, but I only had about 20 lbs to lose to start with. My appetite is under much better control now, I can&#039;t eat near the quantity of food that I used to. Thanksgiving dinner yesterday was a true test, and I passed!"
