I didn’t mean to insinuate that it’s a magic pill for everyone. I’m sorry if it came across that way. Just sharing my experience with it because I struggled with losing weight for a long time due to APs and it helped me. The first time I was on it I had to get off it though because I was on too high of a dose (1,000mg) and it was making me throw up and get low blood sugar symptoms but I’m back on it at 500mg half the dose I was on and am doing well with no issues. I know everything works differently for everyone
