"first of all let me start by saying i am extremely excited of the possibility of losing weight, but it just has not happened  as of yet. i started belviq a week ago and yes, i have exercised but i gained three pounds. i can&#039;t say it was totally me or the medicine so, i am going to watch everything closer this week. i took my students on a trip so we were walking up hill, down hill and on flat land for at least 10 hours a day. i hit well over 30,000 steps a day. the kicker is we also ate 3x a day for five days. i tried to modify my lunch by eating salads and smoothies only, but dinners were usually a little unhealthy with things like: pasta,fried chicken , pizza, etc... i did eat it although i tried to eat smaller portions.  help!!!"
