"i&#039;m 50 pounds overweight so they say, but i really am too big, cute face, thick in the waist. i&#039;m 5&#039;5 and wear 3-4 in heels so when i went to the doctor and got on the scale i told the nurse this scale is wrong, it&#039;s no way i&#039;m 248lbs she said, you do not look 248lbs.  i just started phentermine june 12th and i&#039;ve already lost 6lbs, found a skirt on sale for $5.00 but could not button it 2 weeks ago and i tried it on today just to see if the pills made a difference and it zipped up and i buttoned it with no problems...yippie..... need lots of water, have lots of energy and my cravings have disappeared.  i have to force myself and i&#039;ve eaten half of what i normally eat.  looking forward to getting this fat off, 45lbs to go!"
