"i am 39 and weigh 191 . i had a surprise &#039;its not really menopause - its a baby&#039; 7 months ago. i lost 20 out of the 25 lbs i gained being pregnant. then in november i had a partial hysterectomy. and gained back what i had lost in 2 months. that sucked. so today i went to my primary care dr and asked for adipex...most drs won&#039;t prescribe it but she agreed i needed to lose weight. i&#039;ve taken phentermine before in my 20s with great results. wish me luck on losing! i&#039;ll update again in a week."
