"40 year old male. i have been on belviq for 8 weeks. i&#039;ve lost 20 pounds to date. i had a starting bmi of 32. it has totally removed my night time cravings for food. my biggest problem is late night eating. i usually eat pretty healthy during the day and ruin it at night because i am a night owl and would get hungry late night and would resort to snacks or even worse, fast food. belviq makes me not think of food all the time and i&#039;ve noticed i&#039;m not eating as much during meal time. i try to work out 3 times a week but with my work schedule, it can be hard and some weeks i don&#039;t work out at all. i am happier and can&#039;t wait to lose more. no noticeable side effects here."
