"i have been taking belviq for over 7 months now and i have lost 15.7% of my weight (250.8 lbs to 211.4 lbs). i am also a type 2 diabetic patient and my humalog insulin intake is now reduced to 20 units a day from 100 units (80% intake reduction). my latest blood test on 01/23/2014 showed an 11.1% improvement in my hemoglobin a1c 7.2% on 06/04/13 compared to 6.4% 01/23/14 which can be now labeled as pre-diabetic. also, my triglycerides showed a 24.8% improvement from 153 mg/dl to 115 mg/dl. i have no negative side effects whatsoever; all side effects have been positive and many thanks to belviq for making this true after over 10 years being diagnosed with t2dm patient.  my 80% reduction in insulin intake is nothing short of a miracle."
