"i began taking belviq 10 mg twice a day may 25, 2017.  i have noticed that i am making better choices about the foods i eat, while not reaching for the sugary snacks after 7:00pm.  as of today, august 8, 2017 i am down the required 5% that my insurance company requires to continue the medicine.  i haven&#039;t found any noticeable side effects, mainly because even before i took this i was constantly fatigued due to life situation/stress.  i went into this seeing people commenting about &quot;oh, i lost 20# my first month&quot; but for me, that&#039;s not the case.  i need the bump the medicine gives me to slowly lose the weight.  no reason to rush it and i think because of that attitude, i&#039;m more pleased with my results.  looking forward to next 12 weeks!"
