"i am a semi-professional bodybuilder and mma participant. my bmi is above 30 but that is likely due to excessive muscle mass. there are times when i need to shed 10 to 20 lbs to meet weight requirements of my class. i have found that with belviq, i am able to cut the carbs without any cravings whatsoever. i am able to slim down with ease just prior to competing. i was truly surprised at the results. this is an amazing supplement to my current nutritional routine. i have not experienced any side effects so far and seem to tolerate the medication without any problems. i will be using this sparingly for weight loss.
