I too tried adipex after I had foot surgery and quit smoking, oh AND turned 40. I went from a size 2 up to a size 18 in less than 2 years.

My doctor didn't do an EKG but he did see me after 30 days. He checked my vitals and told me I might experience an increase in blood pressure. I haven't so far.

I lost 27 pounds in less than 3 months but then I stopped taking it regularly. I stopped losing. I do notice an increase in my cravings. I actually called this morning to get a refill so I could start taking it again.

I added CLA, raspberry ketones and a b complex vitamin in addition to the adipex the last month I took it regularly and I was losing like crazy. I should mention that I drank home made protein smoothies in the morning for breakfast and sometimes for dinner because that was all I really felt like eating.

Good luck on your weight loss!! I know EXACTLY how you feel.

We just got off the Valor and we used FTTF. If it had just been me and my husband we wouldn't have purchased the program. The group we traveled with were platinum and we aren't yet. We didn't want the group to constantly be waiting on us. Never once did we "get ahead" of the platinums and diamonds. We just went before the people who didn't purchase FTTF.

We didn't sit in the VIP waiting area or use the "platinum or diamond" check in line. There was a small line for us in Miami with 2 agents. We were then told to wait with everyone else in the waiting area. Our group checked in at their special counter and waited in the VIP area.

We still waited in line for dinner (YTD) but so did our platinum friends. We got luggage tags #24 and there was nothing in our stateroom to direct us to any kind of debarkation priority line. When I asked guest services about FTTF debarkation I was told that we would get information in our cabin. It never came.

I wouldn't buy it again unless we were with the same group and we haven't made it to platinum. The perk I enjoyed was being able to put my carry on in the cabin instead of having to carry it with me to the Lido and put it beside my deck chair.

As long as they keep it limited to a very small number it may have value added for some. For us, in this case it was worth it.
