"i have been taking contrave for 1 month now.  i started at 176lbs and i&#039;m now down to 163.  i am happy with the 13 pound lost in a month&#039;s time.  i still have 17 pounds to go but this is a good product.  i only got sick 1 day.  it has really helped to control my over eating and has made me more of aware of what and how much i eat.  i try to walk up to 30 mins per day but also i watch my carb intake.  i don&#039;t eat over 1200 calories per day.  i dream a lot but they aren&#039;t nightmares.  so far so good with the side effects.  i highly recommend this drug!!"
