This is me. I was on for 4 months and lost 30 lbs. I have been off a year and have continued to lose 10 more! It really reprogrammed my brain and how I think about food.

If I feel like I need it again I would not hesitate to go back on.

Same. If I need to use it for 4-6 months every other year, fine. Better than what I've watched my mom go through just trying to stay not-quite-obese.

It's actually not "fine." This will do horrific things to your metabolism.

NP. No dog in this fight but how could he know this? Do we really have enough studies about these drugs at this point in time?

There are extensive studies about yo-yo dieting. The ramifications of this are very clear.

Come back in 6 more months and tell us how you have "not regained ANY weight."

OP it isn't unusual for people to keep it off for 6 months or so. But within about a year, it starts coming back on. Within about 18 months, the weight is back and more is coming.

You really just aren’t as hungry. If you are already working out 6 days a week and are normally healthy, you can keep it off. I might need a boost before next summer and I’m ok with that.
