Is anyone taking Phentermine / Adipex

I was very hungry at my 1 week checkup post surgery so my doctor put me on Phentermine.

I lost 28lbs in 4 weeks. It is awesome. He will stop me after a fill but I am so worried that I gain weight back or just plateau.

Also, would they give me a fill even though I lost so much before my 1st one? Did you have any experience in dealing with Phentermine?

It always worked for me before but then after I stop it I would gain all the weight back. I am just worried.

Any input?

About 5 years ago I tried adipex. I only lost about 20 lbs and eventually gained the weight back. You may experience a plateau at first but i'm sure you will do just fine once you start to get your fills and get to your "sweet spot".

I wish I had some to curb my seemingly monstrous appetite cry_smile.gif I dont think you'll gain unless you havent hit your sweet spot and even then it probably wont be the whole 28 you lost. I dont know about Dr withholding the fill, it seems like each surgeon has his own rules...
