"i started contrave on feb 2 2017, since then i am down 14lbs. i only eat when i am hungry and i stopped craving foods. the only side effected i experience was crazy dreams. i stopped smoking 2 years ago and gained all my weight, not only am i losing weight, it stopped cigarette cravings. it has made me more alert of my surroundings plus making healthy decisions. i&#039;m now taking 4 pills a day and i love it. if you have struggled to lose weight i highly suggest that you give this a chance."
