"i&#039;m 5&#039;7 and 6 weeks ago i weighed 210 lbs. i started at the low dose for two weeks and lost 8lbs, and at the middle dose i lost 17lbs more. i&#039;ve had minimal side-effects: toe and finger numbness that lasts for a few minutes and some dry mouth. certainly nothing that i would consider stopping for. i love this pill. i have no interest in food and am so rarely hungry. it is pricey- please go to their website and get the first two weeks free and $100 off every month after that. it is worth it, i think i&#039;m saving that in food costs."
