"i started to take this medicine in october 2009. i have had 2 kids and about 6 months after my second was born i decided i had to get this weight off! i weighed 218lbs when i started taking these and today i am at 185lbs. that is 32 pounds so far. i still have about 20 i would like to lose. i don&#039;t go to the gym or &quot;exercise&quot; everyday, but the pills give me more energy and i move around a lot more. i have the energy to get up and go when i would normally have a hard time getting motivated. i sometimes have to remind myself to eat because my food cravings are hardly there at all when i take the pill. i do notice that i get a dry mouth, but drinking water helps and i love this medication. i think it is amazing."
