"i have been on belviq for nearly 18 months. i take 10mg twice daily. my bmi was in the obese range. i never had a single side-effect. not one. i have lost 45 pounds. the medication just took away my cravings. i never even want dessert, and have no desire for sweets.
sadly, i am not an exercise person, so i&#039;ve done very little of that. some people might think that 45 pounds indicates a slow weight loss in that length of time, but i am thrilled. by the way, i just eat normal food, but much smaller portions. i just get full very quickly
 i&#039;m sorry some people have had problems or side effects. for me, it was a life saver. i still have 25# more to lose, but i&#039;ll get there. then i have to figure out how to keep it off!"
