phentermine low carb

I was told by all my doctors to stop my low carb diet because of Lithium and NOT to take ANY diet aids because they can throw me into mania. So now I eat healthy and exercise. If I have a few extra pounds, so be it...stability is blissful to me!!

I am 54 years old and 223 pounds. I am taking Phentermine(37.5) now for a month and eating about 1400 calories a day as part of a no more than 35 grams of carbs diet. I only eat fresh low carb vegetables and lean meats; no sugar, no sodas, no junk food, no alcohol, no smoking; and walking 1 hour / 3 times a week. I only lost 5 pounds in 30 days. This is very depressing. I am on Thyroid medication for an under-active thyroid and am within range. What else can I do?

Nothing - and I do mean NOTHING takes the fat off. Calorie restriction. Low carb high fat. Moderate carb/higher protein. Weight loss medication (Phentermine). Exercise is dance class 2-3X a week, and strength training 3x. I have a job where I stand a lot. My diet when I am not attempting to lose fat is has been very high carb in the past, as sugar and sweet cravings the last few years have been off the chart. Like... I cannot even describe how bad the sugar cravings have been.

5 phentermine, weekly B12 cocktails at a local weight loss clinic. I went from 227 to 187.5 in 3 months. I am following a high protien low carb diet. My job does not allow me to work out constantly but it has forced me to change my eating habits. The B12's help flush the fat and toxins out of your system. I feel better with the B12's and I notice a big difference in my mood!!!! What I am noticing moreso though is I've lost inches. I have went from an 18 womens to a 13 in juniors.

33f, DM 2, Been taking Metformin XR 500mg 2 pills x2 a day. Started phentermine after trying invonkana, and trulicity to bring my a1c down. Mid January 2017 I started the phentermine. Towards the end of February 2017 I had ketones in my urine and was in ketosis. I was excercisin religiously and watching my carb intake.i was eating between 100 to 150gms of carbs. I was not on a ketogenic diet. After that visit i have been extremely ill. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea.

Also i would like to know if there is any chance of me gaining weight while taking phentermine? I follow a low carb diet but i have not seen fast results.

s go in your Breast milk and you should be losing weight during breast feeding . Cut back Carb would be the best . Eat only 40 to 60 carb aday and you will be slim in no time. But remember your baby all was cames first.

Dr. W. I'm sure you've heard the phrase "fat and happy." Well, it's not just folklore. The same carbs that make you fat (and contribute to diabetes and other problems) also make you happy. It's simple science: Carbs allow more of the amino acid L-tryptophan to penetrate your brain. The L-tryptophan triggers your brain to make more serotonin, and the serotonin makes you feel happier. It's as simple as that!

if you notice changes and if your blood sugars are becoming too low then stop taking phentermine, and seek further advice about what you could use instead of phentermine. Remember that diabetes should be your priority.

I am on Phentermine a diet pill, I have been taking it for 4 months. I have Anxiety and I am also Bipolar which I haven't had any Anxiety for over a year now. For about a month now I have been having Anxiety attacks and Depression really bad. I fought out I shouldn't take Phentermine if I have Anxiety or Depression. So I was going to get back on my meds. that I used to take which was Welbrutain XL and Xanxa .

Who has done a low carb diet that worked well? Can you give me any tips for low carb snacks/meals?

I am within my first week of taking phentermine. Will the cheat tightening and sleeplessness ease up in the next week or two? I am on the lowest dose, 15mg.

So you will lose weight but not because of the Phentermine but because of the low carb diet! The Phentermine is a big waste of your money. Cut back on your carbs, eat healthy snacks every 3-4 hours, instead of 3 meals...do some walking and the weight will come off. I hope this helps and wish you all the best!

told me, I cried to 2 weeks and then decided I could do this. I went on a one year diet of high protein (love my meat) and low carb and was able to drop 70 lbs. in that year. I could not believe it, I am not lower than when I got married 34 years ago. I was an 18 then and i am a 14 now. (I had gotten to 22-24) before I started the diet. I said LOW not NO carb. I love my carbs. It was hard, but so worth it. You can do this just to keep your health good.

High triglycerides can suppress HDL, and are associated with high VLDL. Also, high carb and low fat is what causes the preponderance of small dense LDL. The wine might help raise HDL a little bit, but will raise triglycerides even more. I'd ditch it, even though moderate alcohol is generally cardioprotective for most others. I am not a low-carb dieter myself by any means, but it's uncanny how the low-fat / high-carb seems to be going wrong for you.

Obese adults followed one of the two diets for two years. Those on the low-carb diet had significantly higher cravings for carbohydrates and high-fat foods, although they were less bothered by hunger.

low carb or low fat for fat loss? i have heard so many conflicting opinions...

I miscarried last Wednesday Nov. 21 at 8 weeks & 3 days. My pregnancy was totally unplanned. I'm 39 will be 40 on 12-3. I started taking Phentermine for weight loss in June and am down 54 pounds. When I found out I was pregnant I stopped taking the drug. However, I was pregnant for 3 weeks before I knew, so I was taking the Phentermine that whole time. I know everything I've read said there is no link between miscarriage and the weight loss pill Phentermine.

Barb, I was on low-carb diet for a long time, but recently I found out that for many people like me, eating a low-carb diet may weaken the thyroid or even cause hypothyroid. If you google "low carb diet and low thyroid", you will see that eating "safe" carbs like sweet potatoes or rice will help out your thyroid a lot. http://chriskresser.

I've been doing low carb for 3 weeks and I am down 14lbs. I fell off the wagon last week, had an awful stomach bug and just couldn't bear what I would normally have, as soon as I felt well enough I jumped right back on it. Just looking for some motivation, inspiration or even just a natter.

As a family of 5 with two children and myself being on meds and only one person working, I need some economical low carb ideas for meals and/or snacks. The low carb thing is new to my entire family. Any info would be helpful. Also, any info on how to naturally lower my blood pressure is also welcome. Thanks!

Only want to lose like 25 lbs. Started taking phentermine a week ago. Docter tested my thyoid level it was low so now I'm taking levothyroxine.
