Just an update, Im 2.5 months in and 27lbs down! Woot! How is everyone doing?!?

LMAO, Giiiiirl I am so happy to hear this! I have been sweating like im sitting in a sweatbox! LOLOL

They are hard to say no to. I haven't stopped smoking although I have noticed the cravings dwindled big time. I still have them here and there. I should quit. Hmmm. How's your progress coming along?

Hey all just wanted to check in. NURSECUTIE67, thank you. Ok, I have sucked the last few weeks in the way of diet and exercise. Today, I decided to stop that. While I have lost another pound, I should and can lose a lot more. I have enrolled in a year of zumba so hopefully this gets me back on track. It's so easy to veer.…

I only had issues in week 3 and 4 but they go away.

Welcome to the Contrave family lol. Around week 3 I had cramping. A weird cramping at that but it did go away. I am now on week 6. It took me until week four (four a day) to notice my cravings diminish. I get it works on everyone differently. The start of week four and five were hell with the nausea. It was to the point Id…

Merci, I agree with most of what you said except, "The diet pill wont stop you." While it doesn't stop you, it does make your craving disappear. Sometimes now the thought of food is repulsing. I agree with not having the temptations at your finger tips.

Contrave can actually be used for long term use due to its make up but who would want to have that as a lifetime thing. As a user of it, I can say I wouldn't. It's not cheap by any means. Don't beat yourself More6284. Give it a month to do what it's designed to do. You know the good habits that will need to go along with…

Hello. I am now on week 5 with Contrave. Feel free to message me anytime you would like. There aren't a lot of reviews out there on it due to it being so new. I agree with everyone with a reduced calorie diet. I have done that in the addition to the meds. We ALL know meds arent a miracle pill just a tool to assist. Great…

Hi Dennie, I have seen some people said they spread their pills out throughout the day. I take my 2nd dose around 5p-7p and haven't had any sleeping issues...thankfully. That's awesome one pill is working!!! Keep tabs on your desires though. I have read that people lose desires to do a lot of things they use to, good…

I am now on week four of Contrave. I had an allergic reaction and stopped taking it for a few days until I ruled it out. Thankfully it was just my shampoo that I was allergic to LOL. Ok, so week four and I FINALLY have noticed cravings have gone away. The thought of breakfast this morning repulsed me but I forced it down.…

Hello all. I am new to the group and happy to have found others using this. On 04/19/15, I started week three of Contrave. So two in the morning, one in the evening. I have noticed dull headaches from time to time and some stomach cramping. I cant say that Contrave has yet to curb my hunger or take away cravings. I take…
