So, I had a follow up appt for my thyroid today. I have hypothyroidism and get my levels checked every 6 months. While I was there I decided to discuss my weight issues with my doctor. Since I quit smoking in Dec 2010, I have put on about 15 lbs and can't seem to get rid of it. I asked him about Adipex and what his thoughts were about it. I know quite a few people that are on it or have been on it and have lost a good amount of weight. He said that it would be ok if I tried it and wrote out a prescription for it. Yay!!
I am going to get it tomorrow and hopefully be able to start it tomorrow. You are only able to receive three prescriptions for it and then must be off of it for six months before you can get another prescription again. I received the ok from him to only take a half of a pill a day that way it will last six months. I will then only have to be off of it for three months. I do have to have a follow-up appointment once a month so that he can check my weight, blood pressure and write a new prescription. But I am SOOOO excited!! I will be sure to keep everyone updated on my progress. Wish me luck!!
Good luck!
