Shift work

Posted on November 19, 2019 by Sally-Anne Turner

Hi everyone,

I’m just looking for advice I’ve been using phentermine and have lost two stone over last few months but I work shift work so I’m starting my dreaded nights again tonight! Where I ALWAYS gain weight and I really don’t want to! Does anyone have advice on when to take pills and how to get through because I’m awake for 18-24 hours sometimes making it difficult to curve the hunger and not binge eat to get through?

Thank you
