obesity
"I began taking Phentermine on 12/5/13. At that time I weighed 181 lbs & had 46% body fat. Today I weigh 140 lbs & have 33% body fat. I went from a size 14 to a size 6. I still have weight to lose & am continuing to take the medication, but I thought I'd offer my opinion after 5 mos on the medicine. It works very well. Having said that, I have had some side effects - dry mouth & insomnia. The dry mouth isn't all bad. It has forced me to drink tons of water, but the insomnia is difficult. I take 1 37.5 mg pill in the morning, but if I've had trouble sleeping for the last few days I might take 1/2 or skip a dose all together. Also, the medicine makes me more irritable than normal, but gives me energy to work out."
