weigh in and blood pressure results

welp...went to the doc..my blood pressure...was 120 something over 94...so i guess they are going to call in the adipex...sounded like it anyways..they said they are short a nurse so its going to be later today!

Also..the weigh in part...since i was there a couple months ago..i've gained 4lbs! So i am sitting at 306...really aggravating!!!

I didnt hurt myself from exercising..the last time i exercised was Friday..didnt do anything on the weekend...and i am guess i slept the wrong way...i had to of!! And Janina i know you mentioned kidney infection..i had thought of that at first..but i have had problems with this spot in my back before...but it was like 6 yrs ago when i had the first problem..and then i guess its been another 4 since it bothered me last..we need to a new bed badly..so it might be that who knows!! Seems to be doing better as long as i keep the massaging going..and am not up doing a lot. And i was up lastnight walking alot..so it probably didnt help..

I'm just kinda down...i hate it that i've gained 4 lbs..i work out 5 days a week and at times 6 or 7. i have given up carbonated drinks..been eating less...watching my calories..and my portions. The nurse said i am building muscle..because clothes are fitting looser. I have on a pair of capris now that i couldnt button..they are buttoned now..so i must be toning??? It'd just be nice to see the lbs go down..instead of up! But theres the update anyways!

Hi Stacy,
I too am taking Adipex....i realize you  haven't started yet. But this is my second week taking the pills. One quick thing never take it after noon time or you'll be up all night. I've lost 7 lbs so far. but for the last 3 days my weigh loss has stopped at 243. It ALWAYS does. Just can't seem to get over the hoop. I TOTALLY know where your coming from every am i strip down to my birthday suit and check my weight. my clothes are feeling looser and i can tell the difference in my face., but that darn scale won't move. The scale is so discouraging. i say we stop looking at the scale for two weeks and let see where  we get.  FYI...i think your nurse may be right. I have felt a few muscles i didn't know i had. And I'm starting to feel a collar bone lol

Hey,
 I think there are quiet a few people taking adipex. I have taken it before and lost with it..but only took the pills for like a month. And yeah i learned my lesson on taking it to late and being up half the night..haha!! Congrats on the 7lbs lost so far!!! The scale can be VERY discouraging!! But hey..i too can notice in my face and in my clothes that I have lost..or toned..So I am not giving up!!! Dont you give up either..are you exercising also??

YEP,
at least 3-4 times a week. i just started  two weeks ago and i love my gym it's an all  womens club, mostly older so you don't feel foolish next to a skinny lil thing complaining how fat she is.LOL
on mondays i do water aerobic and the other days i do 30 minutes on the elliptical and weights. On saturday i'm thinking of trying a salsa class they offer. My daughter is great she motivates me and when i'm too tired after work to go work out we go for a long walk around the neighborhood.

thats awesome that you have someone there to motivate you!!! That all womens club sounds great!! water aerobic how fun would that be!!! There isn't anything big like that around here. we have a taekwando place..and they have a gym there also...but its stuff that I could do here at home or just getting outside and walking and looking around. So i will probably stick with my turbo jam and i may get out and start walking again!! Goodluck to you and keep me posted on how you are doing!!

Hi! hope you dont mind if i ask? but how does a person get there dr. to give them adipex? is there a certain kind of dr, i need to see? been doing WW for over a year off and on and iam so depressed, cant get anywhere on it, but back and fourth, i went to my dr once before and ask for something , he says there is nothing he could precribe , Yeah right ! huh? I have lost 50 lbs in over a year then gain some . Iam miserable, any help how i can get my dr to help, will gladly accept information, Thanks Delilah!   By the way you all seem to be doing great! keep up the good work.

Hello,
  Well my doctor..he did blood work first..and then he prescribed them. I just go to my normal family MD doctor. Some doctors I know don't like to give it because I know mine said is all it was..was a form of speed. I was on them before and lost some weight. Each month i had to go in to the office and let them check my blood pressure and they weighed me before they would give me a refill..All docs are different..but i know mine said you could only be on them for 3 mths because they are addicting. But like i said..every doc is different. The generic of adipex is phentermine. Goodluck and maybe if you talk to him and tell him u want these then maybe he will?? Its worth a try! Goodluck to you!!

Thank you! Delilah
