"i packed on a lot of weight while i was pregnant. shortly after i found out i had pcos. knowing the weight and the pcos would soon have major effects on my health. i had to make a change. after discussing my issues with my dr, he prescribed phentermine. at first, it didnt do much. with a lot of self control and determination i am down 60lbs in 7ish months!!!! i was wearing a size 20, i am now a 14/13. its not mircle pill by any means. more of a helping tool to control bad eating habits. its been a blessing."
