My physical is today. I havent seen my doctor since before I stopped taking Phentermine so Im really interested in what hes going to say. Why? Because, according to the wretched scale, I have gained weight (about 10lbs - still 30lbs less than were I was!!!), yet (I stopped weighing myself a few weeks ago, it was depressing me, which is stupid because....) I FEEL better than I do even two months ago when I stopped the meds. My clothes fit better, I feel stronger...Im working out harder, lifting more weights, Im more active because I feel better. If I know him as well as I do, hes going to be proud of where Im at, regardless of what the scale says. Hes already told me that the BMI be damned. Am I bummed I gained weight? Sure. I was at first. But truly, I FEEL like Ive lost weight because my clothes that I was wearing because I could finally squeeze into them, now button comfortably & I dont even need to suck it in. THAT, to me, is...I dont even have words for it :-)
