    I was not on the trial, but would point out that the trial was in patients whose (starting) BMI was above 30. These drugs are meant for the obese, and the risk of using them is compared to the risks of being obese when they are reviewed by the FDA.

    Read the "fine print" to be used with diet and exercise, participants lost 8-10% of body fat in first 3 months of use.I started at 216 pounds, so for me that would have been 1.75 pounds a week. I lost more than that with diet and exercise alone.
