"i started taking qsymia in the end of november.  it&#039;s now nearing the end of may and i&#039;ve lost just shy of 40 lbs.  i&#039;ve been watching my diet and also incorporating moderate amounts of exercise.  i have hypothyroidism and was unable to lose weight using any other method alone.  this medication has been a life saver!  i no longer have to take blood pressure meds and will likely be stepping down the dosage of my thyroid meds soon due to lower body weight.  i still want to lose another 30-40 lbs. to be at a healthy weight.  my rate of weight loss has been steady...not too slow but not too rapid, either.  i can&#039;t say enough about it."
