"i am 6&#039; tall and began taking this medication on july 29th.  at the time that i started taking this medication, i was 270 pounds.  today, i am 253.  i feel excellent and have had the energy and motivation to get outside and exercise.  the only adverse effects that i have noticed is a dry mouth (constantly) which can be relieved by sugar free lemon candy. also, i have noticed blurry vision.  i have went to 2 eye doctors to figure out the problem and both have stated that it is dry eyes. the doctor recommended a lubricating eye drop.  i have been using them for about a week and have noticed improvement.  i have tried belviq and qsymia and had 0 results.  contrave is the best that i have found!  and, the scaledown program... amazing!"
