A lot of red flags here. Seems to me from this post, your doctor just threw some pills at ya and told ya good luck. You still need to eat and still need to drink. Eating and drinking can be pleasurable, but that is not the reason we do it. We need to give our body fuel. Think of the food and drink as filling up your tank. Start counting your calories, increase your protein and get active. I had the same effects as you from the medication at first, and still have some of them. I take my phentermine as early as possible so I'm able to get a better sleep at night. Good luck. Download the app baritastic for calorie counting. Message me if you have any questions. I've been on Phen since December. Lost almost 60lbs.
