"this has been good for losing weight. i was skeptical at first because of all of the reported side effects and the costs. i checked with my pharmacy and found that my insurance paid all but $50 for it and the manufacturer will send you a card to cover the rest. there was zero cost for me to try this. first, the side effects. i had them all. tired, joint pains, back pain, feeling foggy... it was bad. everything subsided within the first 2 weeks. the back pain still remains but not as bad. now results. i started the drug on 4/9/2017 at 306 pounds. as of 7/10/2017 i am down to 278 pounds. i walk daily and don&#039;t feel like eating too much. my cravings for sugar, soda and fast food is all but gone. my weight loss is slowing now though."
