"i started on belviq after having 5 months of down time due to atrial fib flutter and my ms acting up on me.  before that, i had been working out 5 days a week and had been eating healthy to get the weight off.  i had gone down from 435 to 345 on my 5&#039;9 frame, but depression set in and i stopped losing.  my doctor was hesitant about putting me on the med because i am on pristiq, but i am watching for serotonin syndrome.  in one week i have lost 8 pounds and i would rather give up the pristiq than the belviq!  my mood has improved so much that i am going to try weaning myself off the pristiq (under my doctor&#039;s supervision!)  
will return with more updates!
