"i have been on belviq for a month now.  i have lost a total of 13 lbs with no side effects other than dry mouth.  and i look at that as a good thing because that only forces me to drink more water.  i have never been a big water drinker... or drinker of anything for that matter.  i truly believe my weight loss would be greater if it weren&#039;t for my job.  i work a 14 on 14 off schedule in the oilfield.  i sit behind a computer for 12 hours a day.  i tend to lose very little weight while at work because i don&#039;t move a whole lot.  during my 14 days at home it drops quite fast because i don&#039;t stop.  i find belviq gives me the drive to move.  i also don&#039;t have much of an appetite on it.  and when i do eat i am eating half of what i used to eat."
