    I've been taking this for about 6 weeks now and I've lost 25 pounds. I've cut out all sodas and drink only water and hit the gym at least 3 days a week. I'm so excited to see such great results in such little time.

    This drug helped me to lose 50 lbs. When I first took the drug I felt "light-headed" but that symptom ended soon afterwards. It is a stimulant and as a result it greatly decreased my appetitie, and increased my energy. When I stopped taking the drug it had a rebound effect--I got tired and hungry. In addition, when taken for several months it no longer has the same effect.
