"i travel a lot. i eat out a lot as a result. i have gained a lot of weight because of my job. i just don&#039;t have the time to exercise. my doctor got concerned when my bmi ballooned to 38. i started belviq and i pay $75 per month. cheaper than the other tv weight loss systems and i won&#039;t try the gnc stuff. not safe! i lost 22 pounds this summer and so far i am pleased. no real side effects to report. for me, $75 is a lot per month but i was spending more on food! lunch and dinner would cost me $20 a day, 4-5x per week."
