"qsymia makes me think like a thin person.  i no longer have any compulsion to find think about food.  i have been obese for 98% of my adult life (i am 64) and tried everything.  with qsymia, i can make all the right decisions (and a few wrong ones) that i have known all along i needed to make.  now, just like a thin person, i am not driven to every fast food door, seconds or thirds of meals, eating a whole container or bag of anything.  with minimal effort and smart decisions, i have gone from obese to within 5 pounds of normal weight for my height.  no noteable side efffects - a little constipation when i don&#039;t eat much and a dry mouth.  if i forget to take qsymia for a day or two i know right away - my old eating habits come right back"
