"i have been taking tenuate for about 3 weeks now and i have lost 10 lbs so far. that was without watching my diet too much and little to no exercise. i asked the doctor to put me on something to help because i might have to have back surgery. i can&#039;t do a lot of cardio aside from walking. he put me on this and i&#039;ve been feeling so much better. i sleep great, no side effects aside from dry mouth and i do get dizzy quite a bit. definitely makes me not want to eat. in fact if i go to eat something an hour or so after taking it i feel like i&#039;ll get sick if i keep eating. i know it trigger&#039;s nerve&#039;s in your brain so everyone&#039;s reaction will be a little bit different. i don&#039;t feel like i&#039;m over energized or &quot;spacey&quot;. 20 lbs to go!"
