My doc also put me on Adipex (37.5mg) because of emotional eating and constantly feeling hungry. It felt like I had to eat all the time or I was going to run out of steam. The very first day I felt weird, but it absolutely curbed my appetite. It was amazing!
For the first time in a long time, the first thought in my mind wasn't "what's for breakfast?" I am much less concerned about eating, and more importantly, what I'm eating. I can eat a low carb, low cal meal and be totally satisfied. Met, unfortunately, didn't curb any cravings. But with Adipex, I am eating correct portions. Veggies, lean meats, and salads (all fresh, not frozen or canned) have become my new eating lifestyle!
The first 2 weeks I was on Adipex, and followed strict exercise and diet guidelines, I lost 13 lbs. This is my third week and hopefully more loss is to come. The real test will be when I stop taking Adipex, but I firmly believe I can maintain this regiment and self-discipline. |
