Comment from: 45-54 Female on Treatment for 6 months - 1 year (Patient)

I took this product for 6 months last year, was not hungry and lost 50 lbs. The most I ever lost and the easiest I ever lost. I stopped for 4 months and didn't gain any weight back. This was a first! I would recommend it to people who can't lose it on their own. Absolutely no health problems with it, a little dry mouth in the beginning, but otherwise felt great. Published: February 13, 2008 ::

This has been a great assistance in gaining my dietary control. I work out regularly and can stick to a physician's monitored 1100 calorie diet with no problem. It has given me some lack of sleep, but that has been my only side effect. I struggled to lose weight with just exercise (up to 4x week) and watching what I ate, but with this I don't have temptation of "off diet" foods. So far I am very happy with taking 3x day.

This medicine is a miracle. It helped me loose 15 pounds with exercise and proper diet. It was much easier to control my eating with this medicine. I highly recommend this to anyone who struggles with weight loss and overeating due to stress. Published: March 25, 2008 ::

I had gasstric bypass surgery five years ago lost over 150 pounds. Had a chold 3 years ago and gained some weight. I found that I still had an appetite as if I was still pregnant. I started out with Adipex which worked, then my dr switched me to tenuate. Not as strong as Adipex, but somewhat effective., Along with a 1500 calorie diet and exercise its possible to break a plateau. Also it helps to be mentally prepared for the lifestyle change. Adipex gave me energy. Tenuate increased my metabolism. i hope this helps. Published: February 07, 2009 ::
