Weight Loss
"Another update: Another month gone and I am maintaining the 31 pound weight loss I had with Belviq. As I mentioned in the last update, I&#039;ve taken 5 mg (that&#039;s one half of one pill) every afternoon since I hit goal. I don&#039;t want to go off completely for two reasons. One is that with the reduced dose, while I still feel the effects of reduced appetite and cravings, and not thinking much about food, I do have to put slightly more effort into staying on track. Not a lot, just a little, but I can tell the difference. I think 5 mg is just right for maintenance. Secondly, the good side effects, first and foremost no hot flashes, feeling nice and cool all day and night, sleeping better, and lower heart rate and b/p. Great stuff! So grateful for it!"
