"i began talking adipex since march 10, 2009.  i am down 14 pounds.  i found that after a couple of weeks i was getting a tolerance to the medication. i stopped taking it for two days and the weight started to fall off again.  i exercise at least 3 times a week by walking and running on my treadmill and using stretch bands.  i feel great. i still have twenty pounds to go, but i am eating much healthier and do not crave junk food anymore.  make sure you change your eating habits so you don&#039;t gain the weight back when you get off the medicine.  this is just the jump start that i needed to get back in shape after having two kids."
