"menopause was my downfall. started using .10 back in 2011. i was 225 5&#039;9&quot;. immediately helped to curb my appetite .  along with exercise i got down to 162. went from a size 16 to a 10. it was hard work and worth every bit of it. i fluctuate from 170-174. still eating right and exercising and i feel fab.  you can&#039;t just take it and think the weight will magically come off.  its not a diet, it&#039;s a lifestyle change."
