Prescribed phentermine for two weeks to break plateau.

Hey everyone! Looking for advice. I'm 18 female and 5'11". SW:237 CW:197 GW: 167 I have been dieting and exercising for what seems like a long time. Im currently in the process of joining the Air Force, the max weight they allow for me is 190. Then after I swear in, I have to lose even more weight in order to complete the physical requirements. I hit a big plateau 6 weeks ago and no matter how far I ran, or calories I cut. My weight wouldn't budge. I was getting worried. A race against the clock and I'm losing. I went to see the doctor. He prescribed me phentermine, an appetite suppressant. He gives a 2 week supply and I have to come in at the end for a check up. That appt. is tomorrow AM. I was 204 when I weighed in then, I'm 197 now. 7lbs in 2 weeks is great. There are a few side effects. I've spent hours and hours reading up on everything having to do with Phentermine. And I know many people look down upon this drug. I can't decide on if I should continue using it. I eat very healthy. 3-5 small meals a day. Only drink water. And I exercise. I'm not trying to use it as a band aid either. I'm just worried about time. Has any one on here used it before? Please don't bash the crap out of me.

New Line We Love: Orico London

It's super rare that I find a line that fits the crazy-high standards I like to hold for my organic products.  Not only do they need to be recyclable, eco-cert and cruetly free, but also should not smell like hippies (sorry, Rachel) and quite obviously be cool, too. So when I do find something that fits all those crazy standards and is amazeballs to boot, I'm really impressed.

So, right now I'm really impressed! Orico London is a relatively new line of organic products for face, body and baby, designed to combat the skin stressors associated with city living: pollution, stress, air-conditioning and heating. [Ed. note: Sounds like this was made for me. - RJ] And, while the line is humungo (not to mention chock full of all sorts of skin-nourishing antioxidants), there are three products in there that I've fallen in love with -- and you will too.

Pure Uplift Firming Face Elixir, $49: This super-light serum literally makes my skin feel firmer in seconds. Plus, it's got glycerin, which smooths those annoying fine lines I'm starting to get while blocking all aforementioned environmental stressors. Did I mention it absorbs instantly? Amazing; now I can layer my SPF lotion on top without waiting like I usually do.

Rush Hour Vibrant Dry Body Oil, $40: The first dry body oil I've ever tried that actually feels dry. This sh*t is legit. I pumped a ton on my skin, rubbed it in (not even very well), and threw on my favorite VINCE silk shirt without thinking (and then, of course, proceeded to have a heart attack). And, lucky me, my shirt didn't get stained like it would have with most other oils.

Little Love Protecting Baby Skin Balm, $24. This tube has not been more than two feet away from me since I got it. The formula has neroli, shea butter and sunflower oils to help soothe skin from head to toe -- especially designed for the little ones, though. It's not greasy. It's not sticky. It's just gone and my skin is left baby soft. I'm gonna start hoarding their baby products, so if they're sold out, you guys know why.

Body fat percentage

Hi, I just got a screening done to know what my weight distribution is and it turns out I have a too high body fat percentage...

What's weird is that to compensate it's not the muscle that's slightly less than average but instead it's the blood cells percentage!

This is so weird, even my doctor didn't know why that was but it's not such a great difference from normal so she said not to worry... I'm still curious though, so do any of you have an idea of what happened?

And also, how do I get rid of body fat without losing weight??

Superfood of the Week: Sweet Potatoes

From sweet tater fries to sweet potato burritos, you're sure to find trendy superfood sweet potatoes popping up on restaurant menus -- and in home kitchens(!) -- everywhere. And it's no surprise: In addition to adding texture, nutrition, flavor and a pop of color to any dish, one medium sweet potato has a mere 105 calories and four grams of filling fiber. Plus, one of these spuds provides a whopping 400% of your daily value of Vitamin A to boost your eye health and immunity. Now that's a nutritional powerhouse. Here are four fab sweet potato recipes to jumpstart your week.

Whole-Wheat Sweet Potato Pancakes: With hearty whole-wheat flour and yummy spices like cinnamon and nutmeg, this all-star Food Network recipe is perfect for a lazy weekend morning brunch. Unlike the traditional white-flour pancakes, these healthy whole-wheat hotcakes are loaded with fiber to curb your mid-afternoon hunger pangs. Enjoy them with a drizzle of pure maple syrup and a sprinkling of toasted pecans for added texture.Sweet Tater Black Bean Burgers: It's time to take your veggie burger to another level. This recipe is the king of healthy bean burgers, bursting at the seams with superfoods like sweet potato, quinoa, oats and sunflower seeds. Layer it up with creamy avocado, roasted red peppers or juicy tomatoes-- and place on a toasted whole-wheat bun. This meal wouldn't be complete without--you guessed it...sweet potato fries.Sweet Potato Pie Smoothie: This guilt-free, creamy smoothie tastes like indulgent sweet potato pie in a glass. The best part is that you can totally "cheat" and use canned sweet potato puree for this one (or just whiz up some leftover cooked sweet potato in the blender to make your own). Simply combine in a blender one cup of sweet potato puree, one overripe frozen banana, 1 cup of skim milk, 1 tsp of vanilla extract and 1 tsp of pumpkin pie spice. Blend until smooth and top with a dash of cinnamon and a few walnuts. Roasted Sweet Potato and Black Bean Salad: This super satisfying meatless meal spotlights sweet potatoes and black beans, a nutrient-rich pairing. The zesty lime dressing perfectly complements the fresh flavors of the bell peppers, scallions, tomatoes and mint.
