I take Vyvanse for binge eating disorder, and it has been a very good experience for me. I take 70 mg, which is the therapeutic dose for BED (you typically have to step up to 70). It lessened my desire to overeat, but perhaps more important, I actually had slightly increased energy/oomph, and so it made a tremendous difference in my depression. Although I didn't really start changing my eating habits toward health significantly until I had been taking Vyvanse for a year, I do think it was really helpful to me in that process. I still take it (4 weeks post RNY) and plan to indefinitely.
