"i have been on this medication for four months and hit 40 pounds loss this morning. i can&#039;t believe how well this works! i was a very compulsive eater. eating fast food and snacking was a daily occurrence. this medication has completely taken away the compulsive behavior. i used to binge eat and say to myself &quot; okay this is the last time. tomorrow, i&#039;m gonna make some changes&quot;. and those changes never happened. or if they did, i would last a week or so and then have a &quot;cheat day&quot; and never recover from it. this medication has made it possible to stay on track for a long period of time. i eat well, count every calorie, exercise, and have not felt the desire for a cheat day once. french fries still look good but my brain is able to say no now"
