"i lost weight, but at a cost from the side effects. took it for about 2 months, and loved how really didn&#039;t care about what i ate (i ate mostly low carb while on it). for the first time ever, a lean chicken breast sounded as good as cake. what i didn&#039;t like was how i felt i never got deep sleep, or how i started to forget what word i was thinking of. so sadly, i had negative side effects from both medicines used to create qsymia. after taking a break, i tried to go back on, staying on the lower dose, but i can&#039;t handle the lack of sleep.
after quitting the medicine, i regained the weight. maybe if i&#039;d been able to tolerate it for longer i would&#039;ve learned better habits, but i found the return of the cravings hard to deal with. not worth it."
