"i have been on this medication for 7 weeks along with doing the slim plate program. i exercise at the gym 3 days a week and my off days i walk a mile. this is not a miracle drug as with any weight loss you have to watch your food intake. i weighted 164 pounds 7 weeks ago,and i&#039;m at 147 now. it has helped a great deal with controlling my appetite.  i have tried it all,but this is working and i&#039;m feeling much healthier."
