"i&#039;m 25, 5&#039;4 and weighed 189 lbs, i went to my doctor &amp; she put me on topiramate and phentermine which together work amazing! now after 3 months i&#039;m down to 154lbs. lost 35 pounds &amp; i&#039;m not sure how many inches off my waist! my goal is to lose 50lbs. appetite is gone, i switched to a 1200 calorie diet. side effects: dry mouth, but water fixes that, a short temper, that&#039;s a work in progress, occasionally i get dizzy but find i just need to eat. i would highly recommend asking for this! not done yet but so far i love my new body and my energy has gone up."
