You should sign up for the scale. It's free :) and it's a pretty nice scale. I didn't like the weighing daily at first. But I don't mind it now. It's now just part of my daily morning routine. Glad u aren't experiencing side effects! And congrats on staying within the calories!! Feel free to send me a friend request of u…

I am on my "4th" week of contrave. This week started taking 2 pills in the am and 1 pill in the evening. (My third week I continued on the 1am 1pm because I didn't want to chance any side effects on vacation) so far I have lost 18 lbs with minimal side effects. I do feel like I have more energy and it deffinitley helps me…

I'm learning I tend to have those days during my period :/ Try finding something to occupy ur hands and concentration so u don't keep thinking about eating more.

Motivation definitely helps! This is a great group for finding some great people to help with it

I'm in the middle of my second week. Hoping for a change soon too.

are u eating with the dose? I noticed that if I eat a fatty meal I feel nauseous after I eat. I had a bad headache the first day I took it. Still on my first week tho day 4.

Welcome!! I'm 31 and from New York. My highest was 350 I'm at 343 now working towards the same goal. It seems like dream to lose half my body weight. But every time I see the scale go down I get more determined to go after my dream! Sent u a friend request

Thankyou!!

Thanks!

Thanks! Everyone seems nice so far so I'm glad to be apart of this supportive group

Hi! We are the same weight! Hopefully we both can get down to a weight we are happy with

Thanks guys!! It's a new prescription medication that combines naloxone and bupropion. It's supposed to help with your brain not feel "happy" when eating and not associating happiness with food. And actually after day 2 I can see that part working. When I ate lunch today it didn't seem to make me as happy as eating usually…

congrats!!! that is truly inspiring!

i just started taking contrave yesterday! i am hoping for great results. today i have noticed that i am not interested in snacking like i used to be. i really hope this will be what it takes for me to finally lose weight.

i just started taking contrave yesterday

I am new too. welcome :)

Took my first dose of contrave this morning! Hoping I don't have many side effects and that the pill works for me like it has worked for so many of you!

All these success stories are helping me with having the motivation to continue. I'm on my 4th day logging my calories (second attempt) and going good so far! I have a lot to lose. And I'm happy to know that MFP works without much excercise. It's hard for me to a lot of excercise at the weight I'm out. But hopefully I will…
