I was just wondering how much you've lost and how long you were on it. I started taking it 4 days ago, so I know its too early to judge. I would just like to hear stories from people who have already been on adipex and have experienced weight loss.

My husband was on it for a long time. He lost 40 lbs I'm not sure in how much time. The key is following why his dr told him to eat. To met his goals he had to eat so many calories a day and so much protein. He also walked for at least 30 min every day. I kept a food journal to help out. He had regular weigh ins with his dr too. Adipex would make him not so hungry so I had to make sure he ate. I would advise watching yourself carefully and eat! Don't just try to not eat too while taking this medicine because you could end up hospitalized! Also if you don't keep up the good eating habits and exercise when you stop taking adipex your going to gain the weight back. It's really just a starting out to help loose weight medicine. I wouldn't recommend trying to take it forever. good luck and best wishes on your weight goals! Remember be constant and persistent and yourll make it!

Thank you! I just started taking it about 5 days ago, and it definitely suppresses my appetite. The only thing my doctor told me was just to watch how many carbs I eat. Also the downside to all of this is that I can't exercise right now due to a knee injury. :/
