"i&#039;m a 49 year old male 5&#039;10&quot; and weighed in at 253 on march 8th 2016. i&#039;ve lost 13 pounds in that time and found the side effects very minor in the first couple weeks only. i was doing very little exercise and have a job that i sit at a desk all day. i definitely recommend this to anyone like myself that has a hard time getting motivated to work out. as i loss weight &amp; see my progress without exercising it actually has been motivating me to workout to increase my weight loss. as for the cost i pay $94 for 120 pills. my insurance supposedly pays $45 but i question that because under the contrave card the the cost should be $90-$100 anyway. should i not get $45 off the $94? i will be checking in to that. that&#039;s my contrave story."
