| Even though I was already losing weight, I accepted my doctor's suggestion to start a 12 week prescription of phentermine on 9/27. I planned to drink only lemon water and green tea, starting that on 9/25/ But yesterday early morning coffee with collagen peptides and cacao powder went back into my routine. The phentermine is having dramatic and mostly beneficial effects. Its not only curbed appetite and most cravings (they feel very abstract now when they do come and are easily ignored) but its boosted my resting heart rate and accelerating my metabolism in a way that's contributing to at least 1 extra lb a week coming off beyond being on an 1800-1900 diet with as much activity (walking, stretching, chair yoga, 2 lb hand weights) as I can safely/comfortably do. | |

I could have sworn I did this yesterday but I must have been distracted and stepped away from the computer. I'm actually eating 1900 calories/day as a goal vs. 1800 calories because my exercise and general activity is so much higher than where I started in June. I've had to learn that my body needs high-fiber carbohydrates including whole grains, especially oatmeal and legumes. So proud of myself. I am doing this. |

| I have added chair yoga to my daily routine and really devoted to monitoring my progress throughout the day via fitbit on exercise and active minutes. I was less strict on what I ate this week, focus still on high protein foods and fresh produce. My tenacity and willpower are strong. I'm just shy of having lost 40 lbs in 3 month's time. My goal for this upcoming month is loss of 9-11 lbs. | |
