Ten Pounds: Ten pounds is easy to lose. That is the trick of these dangerous diet pills. Your physician is a hero and trying to save your health and your life. Phentermine is a dangerous product that will never lead you to real or sustained weight loss. Keep exercising, eating low calorie, high protein diet...You will keep losing weight.

A couple: Losing 10 pounds is better than gaining! what percent of your weight does this represent and did you lose mostly fat and not muscle? Sometimes preventing weight gain is a good reason to consider appetite suppressants. There are some non-responders. This issue can be complicated. Can't offer complete answer in this limited space.
