Good, but...
I have lost 14 pounds in 6 weeks. I thought I would lose more, but it turns out nothing can help you with the motivation part. These pills do give me energy, curb my appetite and make me a complete b@!%&. Just ask my husband! I still have to workout and consciously watch what I eat, this is not a miracle drug. I have tried everything from Jenny Craig to Alli. I have had the most success with this pill. I just do not like the side effects. I'm afraid of what it is doing to my body and my heart. I have noticed a reduced ability to workout hard. It is like I can't take a deep enough breath. My doctor told me I can only be on this medication for 3 months. That is not going to be long enough to lose the 50 lbs I need to lose. I am happy that I tried it, every little bit helps, and if I could take it for as long as I needed to lose the entire 50 lbs I would probably give it a better review, I wish I was up around 20 lbs lost for the amount of time I have been on it.
As for the side effects, mood swings are my biggest complaint. Within 6 hours after I have taken it, I am happy. After that my mood goes down. FAST. I can get into quite a rage also if I get stressed or little things don't go my way. I have been consciously trying to control it but sometimes I just can't. I would advise to chose to use this drug only after you have done extensive research and the benefits are necessary compared to the side effects.
