My surgeon prescribed it. It's very regulated. I would never take anything without it being legal and regulated. I actually had the intragstric balloon surgery almost 7 weeks ago and haven't lost a pound. I want to lose 30 pounds. I weigh 180 and want to be about 145-150. They put me on this meds along with the balloon. I'm hoping for something

Seems like we are all experiencing so many different things. I was and still have never been nauseous. really had no side effects and I'm wondering if they should have filled my balloon up more. It's at 500cc. I'm on day 25 and still have seen only a 4-5 pound drop. They told me I'm the only person to ever feel ok and not lost a lot of weight by now. Not something you want to hear. I'm not happy bc I spent so much money on something I thought would work...eating like 1000-1200 calories a day and still nothing much. They are talking about putting me on weight loss meds too. Ugh

Everyone has their own unique battles. Instead of going against eachother, we should support one another. We all have the same thing in common, trying to lose weight and making a lifestyle change.

Thank you for your input, but you obviously don't know me or my medical reasoning behind doing this balloon. I have exhausted everything throughout the last 15 years and just like everyone else, I made the choice to do something about making a lifestyle change.

Yes you have a program with a dietician, behavior coach, and group meetings every month. Lots of therapy with the balloon. It goes on for a year, so 6 months after you get it removed. It's a tool to help jumpstart a lifestyle
