OP needs to chime back in. Yes phentemine has been used in the past to treat weight loss. It's a key component in the Phen-Fen drug that was popular many years ago. Many people took it under medical supervision and some bought OTC versions. It lead to a class action suits since many people got sick and died using it. OP doesn't provide enough info in her post to say what other things she has tried, if she food logs or if she has been in contact with her nutritionist. I would strongly advise against taking weight loss pills based on the info that has been provided. For all we know, OP is just in the midst of a stall and panicking.

Well, for me, I had WLS in order to be healthier. Taking a drug that raises my blood pressure and increases my chances of cardiac disease kind of defeats that purpose.

Thanks anyways, but I'll stick with a healthy diet, smart food choices and physical activity to keep my weight off. THATS what I signed up for. And if a bariatric patient is having difficulty following the guidelines, their doctor ought to be prescribing counseling or therapy, not drugs.

And what I gather from the OP, this is someone early out of surgery, not someone struggling with long term weight gain. She only has two posts...one asking how soon they can drink soda and the other how soon they can take amphetamines for a little "pep". That was the scenario I assumed from the post and what I based my response on.
