"i started taking adipex on 11/14-4/15 and without diet and exercise i instantly lost 25 lbs. i weighed 150lb (only being 5&#039;2) , by the end of the first month i was down to 126lb , my goal being 125lb. i stopped for a while and ended up gaining all but 3lbs back. now i am back on it and i&#039;m excited to see where i&#039;ll be a month from now. the side effects i have had both times is dry mouth, shakes, and short temper. i&#039;ll report back in about a month, maybe sooner."
