"i am a 35 year old woman who has been fighting with my eating issues since i was a child.  thanks to this medicine for the first time in my life i am not compelled to finish my plate and am perfectly happy sticking to a 1200-1500 calorie diet.  i finally know when i&#039;m full from eating. i have had zero side effects from contrave.  no nausea, no constipation, and thankfully no seizures.  i had decided along with my doctor that the possible side effects were far outweighed by the results.  i started the pills april 21st and am down 50 pounds as of june 22nd.  this is a life changer!"
