"first week 7 lbs lost, 2nd week 8 lbs lost, week 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, nothing. the extra energy is great, the best side effect is no more bladder leakage ! this is not a mentioned side effect, but i&#039;ll continue this little pill forever if i can for that one reason! the chronic constipation is horrible, i have to take ducolax a lot."
