    Anyone on the Ascend Plus trial?

    yes I thought very interesting and really gave a clear idea about not just what the trial aims to achieve but how and why. Feel a bit better about my very subtle weight loss (5 kg!) compared with improved blood pressure, HBA1C, and cholesterol results

    Anyone on the Ascend Plus trial?

    Yes that's also my experience it does get better - the Ascend+ site has some good tips to help with indigestion and nausea which helped me - especially when I moved to the 14mg.
