Weight Loss
"I&#039;ve been taking Phentermine for 2 weeks. For about one month before that I was taking Bontril (Phendimetrazine). I liked the Bontril but it didn&#039;t curb my appetite as well as Phentermine does. I try to stick to 1100 cals/day but I do some calorie cycling now and that way I&#039;ll go above 1100 so my body doesn&#039;t think it&#039;s being starved long-term. I hope that will help prevent a rapid gain when I go off the medicines.



Since starting these various medications I&#039;ve lost about 11 pounds (from 200 to 189 as of this morning). The Tanita scale at the clinic indicates that my water composition has remained about the same while fat percentage has decreased and muscle mass has increased. And I&#039;m not even exercising, so that&#039;s pretty cool."
