obesity
"I had the gastric sleeve surgery when my weight reached nearly 300 lbs (on my 5'1 frame) and I was desperate for an intervention. After the sleeve, with diet and exercise, I got down to 208. But then I just stayed there for months. It started to seem hopeless and my sweets addiction returned. Found myself eating sweets again. A fellow gastric sleeve patient told me she was taking Qsymia to help with her sweet cravings and I should try it. Went to my doc and after discussion he opted to put me on the 3rd level dose rather than start me off slow. First day I did have tingling sensations. Did have LOTS of energy and still do. Only been 2 weeks, no hunger, yes dry mouth - only side effect I have, NO sweets! Love Qsymia! Scale is moving again!!"
