Weight Loss
"I&rsquo;m posting a follow-up from my original review, which I wrote 4 months after starting Contrave and having lost 29lbs. (If you sort the reviews by &ldquo;most helpful,&rdquo; mine comes up first if you&rsquo;re interested in reading it.)
I have been on Contrave for a little over a year now and I have lost 48lbs. I went from 194 to 146, so from &ldquo;obese&rdquo; to &ldquo;normal!&rdquo; I started at a size 12-14 and I&rsquo;m down to a 6-8 (sometimes smaller!).  At this point, the loss has slowed considerably but I&rsquo;m not struggling to maintain as I used to before Contrave. I&rsquo;m still losing 2-3lbs a month, which is really just a bonus now! The one side effect that persists is a complete aversion to alcohol, but I don&rsquo;t mind. As I said before, this medicine has changed my life."
