I have been on Contrave for two weeks. I do kettle bells for seniors 30 minutes 3-5 times a week. I also count calories and mostly stay around 1500 calories a day. I have not lost a single pound. What am I doing wrong. I’m 70 years old.
Contrave and not losing weight?

Do not give up. Keep taking it. It took me about 2 months to get used to it and notice a difference in my weight loss. Because it seems like my body was holding on to the weight. But, after a while it let go. So be patient. The bupropion has to build up in your system too. I have been on it for several years and lost 70 pounds. Plus, don't expect the weight to come flying off. It's slow and gradual. Good luck.
