"i started this med on monday oct. 27th and weighed in at 237lbs and today is nov. 8th and weighed in at 218lbs. that&#039;s almost a 20lbs weight loss! i haven&#039;t changed my diet much because i was already eating healthy,  but however this med does not allow me to complete each meal (about 65-70%). i have not started exercising yet, but will be starting on monday."
