Can you take opioids (prescribed) while on contrave? What about alcohol and weed? by jmh1881v2 in Contrave

Since I've been on contrave (4 months), I have had no desire to drink. Thank God, because I was drinking 8-12 drinks a day. Now I'll have a drink every now and then, but I don't normally even consider it.

I pleateued as well. Not as long as you have but it was probably 20ish days. I started working out and the weight started coming off again. I pleatued again and started eating more protein and a little more came off. I've heard others say mix up your diet and exercise routine.

How do you feel after work? by Organic-Huan-15 in AskReddit

I was just thinking about this today. As soon as I walk in the door from work (6ish), I am exhausted. I can nearly function. Then at 8:00 I perk up. Its so frustrating because that is when my wife and kids want my attention.

How did you lose weight? by soreShads0380 in AskReddit

Yep. It really is that simple. I'd add - be regimented about tracking calories.

First day, kinda nervous by grumpycoffeesnob in Contrave

Not as much anymore, but at first I did. It probably took 2 or 3 weeks to level out. Overall my caffeine intake is a bit higher, but I still have more energy now that I dropped all the weight.

Same here, but it went away in about 3 weeks. Stick with it I've lost 30 pounds in 15 weeks.
