I haven't taken a Diet Pill in 5 days
I don't want them anymore and I broke that nasty habit. I was taking them for 6 weeks and sleeping 2 hours each night. I treated one of my friends like garbage and I didn't mean to and I will make it up to the person.

You know it honey! I am so damn sleeping now that I can't hold my head up and I have two weeks filled with finals and I have to make my in-completes up. I love my Chefs because they have been there and I am honest with them. One is an old Hippie and he is COOL MAN at least that what he calls himself but he is. Phenamentrazine? I don't have the bottle any more because I don't want the number to the pharmacy which was out of state.

Congratulations on breaking that habbit. PS.. the stimulant aspect is bad for your heart. I'll bet your heart rate has slowed down quite a bit.

3. I have the opposite of Diabetes
You get hypoglycemia when you have stomach stapling and I was freaking out from taking the damn things. I was mixing them with my pain killers and they were messing me up so bad that I slept about two hours per night. What's funny about it I still have A's in cooking and I actually invented my own essence and my Teachers/Chefs love it. Thanks!

Thanks! I hurt a good friends feelings and I pushed his buttons and I was a B*TCH. He knows who he is and I am so sorry for doing it.

I was hooked on them for 10 years. I was a fat kid and my Mom took me to the Doctor and he put me on them at 16 years old.

Some diet pills have a scary effect on my personality, and I don't even know why I ever took them. I didn't even have the excuse of trying to lose weight. :-(

12. I lost one friend from DU because of it
I have to move on and try to put it behind me. They do change your personality and you don't realize it until its too late. I wouldn't have gotten the pills If I had gone to the Doctor because you have to be at least 30 pounds overweight.

13. cora, when I quit smoking
I went into coffee overdrive for over a year - it finally levelled off to where I wasn't drinking coffee all day long.
