Contrave with ileostomy

I have been on Contrave for three weeks. I was at 189.4 now at 177.2
I had a sleeve in ‘’06 and I was thin until I could eat more. Fast forward to 2011 I got diagnosed with F.A.P. (Rare genetic colon cancer disease), I got an internal ileostomy and a proctocolectomy. Thin again then I was hungry all the time due to food transit so fast (10 minutes its through me). Now I developed fatty liver and with little bowel left, couldn’t get injections or other drugs. Contrave was it since it is more for OCD and also works with my Pristiq since both effect serratonin. I am on a mediterranean diet, and I allow myself to have a Diet Coke once a week and something like a cookie or muffin and a treat but doing really good and eat soooo much less.
