Been Belviq For 6 Months (Top voted first)

Updated

I have been on belviq for 6 months, have lost 30 pounds between August 2014 & December 2014. Since then I have lost and gained the same 2-3 pounds. I log food intake with a 1250 cal low carb diet and with cardio & strength training 3-4x a week. I drink plenty of water daily 75-90 oz. there are several women who are in the same holding pattern, why?

Hello, Sherry! How are you?

Hitting a plateau point is pretty common in any weight loss regimen. Your body gets used to whatever you've been doing and hits a point where it starts trying to maintain, rather than keep losing. It's just a biological protection mechanism.

Many have reported hitting it for awhile, then having improvement again around the one year mark. Some people even worked with their doctors to take a break from it for 4 to 6 weeks, then start back on it.

The FDA lists the typical side effects of Belviq as possibly including nausea, dizziness, back pain, vision issues and dry eyes.

Has anyone else experienced this and, if so, how did you solve the problem?

Thank you for the response. I have switched up intake and exercise, but guess I will need to keep trying. No weight gain, just can't seem to lose anymore. Feeling frustrated.
