obesity
"I had an ankle injury beginning in Dec 2011, I have had 2 surgeries since.  I used a scooter or a wheelchair to go anywhere.  I had all these excuses why I couldn't lose the weight. I went to the Dr in Dec 2015 & found out my little 5'3" was 289lbs?  My reaction was "when the "F" did that happen & how is that even possible?"  I talked with the Dr about surgery & she said, let's try this medication 1st?  I was reluctant & extremely skeptical but I said ok.  I began taking the Contrave the 1st week of Jan 2016 & this morning (07/01/16), I weighed in at 214. My life is changed forever thanks to this medication. I enjoy my life again & I am always smiling. Best of luck & remember, every journey starts with 1 step! :)"
