"love. it has literally changed my life. it took until week three to really feel that control over food but it has been over 2 months now. i have no desire for anything really. i have complete control over what i eat. i used to plan what i was going to eat and when. i would eat 3-4 pieces of pizza. i still will eat a slice, maybe two, but it depends on whether or not i have eaten healthy the rest of the day. i am down 23 pounds in 9 weeks, and i went on an 11 day vacation and didn&#039;t feel effects until week 3.  downside is constipation. miralax and prune juice is a staple now. for me it is hope and control in a bottle."
