"i started contrave in december. i had very mild nausea. i decided to stay on the two pills because i was loosing weight. i took 6 weeks to move to the 4 pill plan. i have lost 23 lbs. to date. i have a lot of weight to loose and want to avoid getting put on more medications. i got the free scale and really like it. it helps so much to check my weight every day. my cravings are basically gone. this medication is working for me. i hope my weight loss continues. i would like/need to loose 30lbs more to be a healthy weight."
