weight loss
"Today marks 1 month on Belviq and freedom from 24 pounds of fat! I am 5 feet 5 inches tall, 50 year old female and started at 220 lbs. The first 24 pounds came off in the first 3 weeks.  The weight loss seems to have slowed down this past week but I'm OK with that as I figured I could not continue to lose at that rapid pace.  As for side effects, I did have a slight headache for the first two days but nothing Tylenol didn't handle quickly.  The other issue I'm having is a very annoying cough.  I read where that is a side effect for people with diabetes, which I do NOT have.  I am assuming the cough is from the pills but it is possible that I have a cold or allergy."
