Obesity
"I started taking Contrave about a month and a half ago and I am down about 7 lbs. I did not notice much weight loss in the first month because I was actually taking the medication as prescribed. I am 5&#039;6 about 154lbs. I only want to drop about 20lbs for my wedding and I was told this is not habit forming. I exercise and I am on a low cal diet. This medication does not curb my appetite but it does curb my intake which I LOVE. I don&#039;t want to stop eating all together and gain all the weight back as soon as I stop taking it.  This medication still lets me eat but not as much. I am on the second month and I notice I am losing about 3lbs a week which is a healthy way to lose weight. Every now and then I will get a headache but overall...GREAT!!"
