obesity
"I am a 52 year old male, an RN, weighed in at 330 lbs prior to starting this medication.  Poor diet, I could never get "full".  I snacked between snacks, ate high carbs and fat.  I was taking BP med and low dose SSRI, Lexapro 5mg daily for social anxiety.  I started Belviq 10mg 2/9/15.  I also started a diet consisting of 800 calories/day.  I have eliminated all dairy and processed carbs, no bread, no pasta, no cereal, nothing.  I also minimize my fat intake. An apple and coffee for breakfast, a chik breast, apple and salad for lunch and dinner. My snack is 1 cup nonfat cottage cheese.  25 days later, I have lost 25 lbs, am rarely hungry, and feel GREAT with no side effects. Wait till I start exercising! This med is a true lifesaver!"
