"i just started contrave on 5/31/17 and so far so good, i can honestly say with prepping my healthy meals and snacks i do not over eat and actually had to force myself to eat lunch today. i haven&#039;t experienced any of the above mentioned symptoms was only nauseous for a quick second until i popped a piece of gum in my mouth. my water intake has increased and i haven&#039;t craved any pepsi&#039;s or sweets that i usually had to have 3-4 times a day, and the good thing is my insurance covered it at 100% so i&#039;m glad it seems to be working for me right now. i will give it 30 days and post my weight loss but as of right now it works for me."
