"in the past 7 days, i&#039;ve lost 4 pounds. i&#039;ve experimented with the dose. one day i forgot to take the pill until 3 pm. i observed that i still had the &quot;not much interest in food&quot; effect. i took a whole pill at 3 pm. for the rest of the week, i took only one pill at 3 pm each day. afternoons and evenings were the time i was most likely to crave something or overeat. when i came in the door from work (in the past) i felt ravenous. no more. i know the 1/2 life is 11 hours, but i don&#039;t feel this wearing off till about 2 pm the next day. i&#039;m very happy, because this doubles the time the pills last! 4 pounds in a week is  unheard of for me. no more headache or dry mouth either. reduces desire for food! no sweets/carb cravings. i&#039;m amazed!"
