"i started may 26th and at my one month weigh in i had already lost 20 lbs and that is with no real exercise. i will weigh in again in less than 2 weeks but i know i have lost an additional 10 lbs. i have had none of the side effects. i love the idea of not wanting to eat. i love this medication. i still have 100 lbs to go but if everyone is right on how this drug works i should be there by february."
