"long story short- i am a small girl, about 5&#039;1. i never had weight issues until, well life happened and i had 2 kids back to back and never lost all the baby weight. i ballooned to 225 lbs! i tried everything with little to no success. my cravings for sugar were terrible and i had lots of stress in my daily life i won&#039;t get into. i cried to my doctor to help me and after some simple tests (ekg &amp; liver u/s) she prescribed me phentermine x1 daily 37.5mg. been on it for just about a month now and lost 10 lbs. i have never lost this much weight in 30 days with anything else. my appetite is non existent, but i do get hungry later in the day sometimes. you will get dry mouth and bouts of insomnia but those are easy fixes! would recommend!"
