"i am a 32 year old male, 6&#039;2&quot; 318 before i started taking adipex.  i was a college football player, so i know how to diet and exercise.  however after having a few kids involved in everything, a good job, and a wife that is an incredible cook, i packed on the lbs!  adipex has given me the energy to hit the gym, and stay involved once i get home too, no crash and burn like a lot of those &quot;energy supplements&quot;.  i do get dry mouth everyday. the first week or so i would almost forget to eat.  you have to force yourself to eat, so if your going to do that you might as well eat healthy.  i am working out 4 times a week for an hour at time.  if i had to guess i am down about 20lbs, i go back to the doctor next week for a weigh in and refill."
