"i have been on adipex since the beginning of december and my starting weight was 271 and as of thursday i weighed in at 246. i am very pleased with my weight loss and very disappointed in myself to have reached a whopping 270. i guess it&#039;s better late than never. i do experience some side effects which includes dry mouth and constipated at times. when this happens i drink even more water and drink a swig of vinegar..it usually helps. i have not incorporated exercise in my plan yet but plan to start next week.   i wanted to get the diet down pact first..i do recommend this pill for anyone that has a lot of weight to lose!"
