"i have been on contrave for almost 3 weeks and i have lost a total of 9lbs. i am counting my calorie intake and exercising as well. i am up to 2 pills in the morning and 1 pill in the evening.i do find that when i take the 1 pill in the evening i get hungry and want to eat, eat, but i know how to control that by eating the right foods. overall i love what contrave has done for me."
