"i started taking adipex 2 weeks ago. i weighed in at 232 lbs. as of today i weigh 222 lbs. so i&#039;ve lost 10 lbs in 2 weeks. i tried taking alli in january along with the special k diet and exercise and lost maybe 5 lbs. i am so excited about adipex. it has helped me cut my portions down. i still eat normal food, just not as much. i have to force myself to eat. so far the only side effects i&#039;ve had is dry mouth, but that has helped me drink lots of water. i&#039;ve also had a little constipation. i have stopped drinking coke. i have had some, but i don&#039;t have the desire to drink it. if i get a coke from somewhere i only have like 3 sips out of it and end up throwing it out. i love adipex."
