What were the measurements on the ingredients for this?

So update I have been on Phentermine now for almost 3months I have 3 more months left of dr supervision and so far I have lost a total of 59 lbs 47 of them after I started taking this medication! I have completely changed my diet to mimic the one I will be on after the Lapland, it was tough at first but now it feels normal, and I know that with the help of the food suppressant it has made this transition easier! I also started working out more I'm up to 4days a week! I workout on the treadmill and do Water aerobics! Soon I will try to bump it up to 5 days and and some more strenuous workouts!! I can't wait for my surgery, seeing these results already has made me so focus and determined!! It's like my body remembers where it used to be prior to my 3 kids and excessive over eating!! I know I will never look like I did pre preg wt 9 yrs ago but I am so happy that my wt is going down I am already feeling so much better!! Sent from my iPhone

So I went to my PCP today to start my 6mo wt visits and he prescribed me Phentermine and told me to eat well and exercise it will help suppress my appetite. Has anyone ever taken this? I'm kind I'd nervous to take it any help is welcomed!!!! Sent from my iPhone

I was told to lose between 20 & 40 lbs!! My surgery won't be for another 5 months because I have to finish my PCP weight management visits but so far I'm down 17lbs I just started eating smaller portions and exercising and my dr gave me an appetite suppressant to take and it's helped! It's been hard but I really, really, Really want this surgery and to lose weight!! It's hard but you can do it!! Good luck Sent from my iPhone

Thanks everyone for your responses!! I started taking it last Friday and as of today I'm down 14 lbs!! It really does suppress your appetite but I also started eating differently adding more Protein, eating less carbs,fat and sugar! And started a Water aerobics boot camp 3 days a week!! I hope these 6 months fly bye!! So far my journey is going well!! Sent from my iPhone
