"hey guys. i&#039;m giving an update from 10/20/16. i am 5&quot;3 and my starting weight was 300 lbs. i am taking phentermine 37.5 mg capsule once a day since then. i am being weighed weekly at the doctors office. the first weight in was on 10/27/16 and i was weighed in at 291. so in one week i lost 9 pounds. today, 11/3/16 i was weighed at 284.6 pounds. i lost 7 pounds for that week. so total amount of weight loss in a 2 week period i have lost 15.4 pounds. now i do have extreme dry/cotton mouth and also numb/tingling hands and face. not sure what the deal is with that but upon looking at the side affects that is a side affect listed. i&#039;ll keep updating."
