About your smoking comments...
Don't blame it on the quitting smoking..

I know that somewhere I am sure there are studies that show you gain a
ton of weight during quitting smoking and such, and I am also sure that
it's the standard that most folks do gain when they quit smoking. But I
know from experience that it doesn't *always* happen. I have lost 10lbs
since I quit 2 months ago.
Now with that said.. since you've already gained the weight - best
advice to you is to move more than you consume, constantly ask yourself
if you are REALLY hungry? Or just head hungry and eating for recreation.
Example.. Today I went to a Chinese buffet with a friend for lunch. In
the past I have been one of those people that make 2 even 3 trips back.
Today I had one smallish plate of most everything I wanted to taste/eat
and a large glass of water, refilled 2x. I ate slow because I knew my
lunch date would be needing more time. I mentally asked myself several
times "Suz, are you REALLY still hungry?" and I answered back honestly
"No" so I stopped eating. That meal at 11:30 lasted me til 7pm this
evening.

As for your Phentermine interest, I don't advocate any type of
assistance other than getting off your duff, moving more, eating less
and giving a conscious effort to formulating a healthy lifestyle. Kudos'
on the quitting smoking btw.

Greetings,
I am not looking for an addiction with Phentermine but a way to
utilize it
to get to where I was 3 years ago when I quit smoking and I was at 195
pounds. I blew up to 314 pounds (quitting smoking was easier than
losing
weight). Also lost a lot of will power along the way. Does anyone have
any
success stories with this route?
Thanks
