SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Baseline and 2 to 6 hours after administration of 30mg lorcaserin/placebo

Measuring strength of 6 muscle groups in arms and legs using Medical Research Council composite score (each muscle group scored from scale of 0 \[no visible or noticeable contraction\] to 5 \[maximum strength\] and the sum of the scores for the 6 muscle groups equate to a composite score ranging from 0 to 60, higher score is better).
