I started taking Saxenda just over a month ago. I have lost 14 pounds in that time. What I found is that is it really suppresses my appetite for alcohol . I'm fortunate my extended medical covers the whole cost of the medication and the needles. I take it just before bed and I sleep amazing. I have had no negative side effects from Saxenda just positive.

I lost 40 lbs in 4 months the first time I used Saxenda. I worked out several times a week both cardio and weights and watched my eating. Im on it again 3 years later and again working out 8-10 hours a week cardio and weights. I eat less but not quite as good as last time with my diet. In four months I’ve lost 20 lbs. I do have thyroid issues, insulin resistance and PCOS which works against me but it was the same last time. I think it just really depends on your body. I know a couple people who lost 50-60 lbs in 4 months.

@@Shanycole i definitely recommend doing weights during your weight loss to help with any excess skin that may result from the rapid weigh loss. I’ve been doing that both times and thankfully it’s helped keep away any sagging. My friend just did the Saxenda, watched her eating and walked 5 times a week. She was one who lost 60 lbs in 4 months but had a lot of sagging skin afterward in her midsection and arms. Good luck! I look forward to hearing about your progress.

Hey hey! Congratulations on losing weight! Just be patient with it. :) Also, when it comes to the amount of weight lost in one or two months, it literally depends on the person, their bodies, and why they had the weight gain in the first place. For example, I'd lost 20 lbs by about halfway through the second month on Victoza. However, the reason that I gained a crazy amount of weight in the first place was medical. My body doesn't work properly. So the Victoza helped my body release some of the weight that was brought on by both my pancreas and my thyroid acting crazy. I, like you, wasn't eating much either (I also cannot stand breakfast, but that's another issue. lol), and I wasn't working out, due to sciatica. I'm at a plateau now, but if I exercise, the scale would probably move more. I say all of this to say, don't necessarily pay attention to what's going on with others who are taking Saxenda. They might have had health issues triggering their weight gain, but may not be telling people that part of the story. Focus on your own goals, and what your body needs. Keep going! You can do it! 🥰🥰🥰

Thanks for sharing, and well done on keeping it up. Me, I have lost 9kg on 6 weeks of use - I started the week before Christmas, which was a bit of a mistake as I was indulging through the festive season, but for me, 9kg (19lb's) is great, considering that the most I've ever lost on a diet is about 10kg over like 6 months' worth of effort in the past. I am on 2.4m, I don't feel I need to move off that and will keep it at that for the next month to see what sort of results I can achieve. The big side effect for me is diarrhea when I have upped the dose, which stays around for about 3-4 days after upping the dose. i have been on 2.4m for about 10 days now.

Ive been taking saxenda since feb 9th to date ive lost 5lbs and im getting so upset as that 5lb has been gradual since feb. My saxenda ran out and I dont see my dietician until June 5th. They sent me another prescription but this time I was given Victoza. I am only taking 1.2mg as dietitian says not to increase until I see her in June. Like you I feel very sick physically and mentally as each week I get on the scale it just stays the same. I am exercising best way I can 4-5 a week as I have arthritis in both my feet and one foot is giving me terrible pain. I am also very concerned by the side affects which makes me want to stop taking it. I weighed in at 124.5kg in feb now I weigh 121.6kg. That is not enough weight loss for me as I need to lose 10% so as to get Bariactric surgery...I feel so unwell today and suddenly a swollen gland has appeared behind my ear an I just feel so unwell. I have asked my gp to do a blood test to determine if there is a reason I am not losing weight so waiting on bloodtest results.

My doctor recommend me this medication. I am little dilemma if I should start this. First is it pain to inject yourself with this medication? I am a little scare of injection. Is there any rebound when u stop? Can u share how long u took the medication until you stop? Can we really stop as and when we want?

Hello! I understand being scared. I have a series of videos on my channel about taking Saxenda that may be helpful to you. There’s no pain with taking the shot. It feels like a tiny pinch. I did bruise a couple of times. Last year I stopped taking the drug because of shortage. I did not gain a lot of weight back. Less than 5 pounds. You can stop anytime you want. Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Best of luck on your journey. 💜💜

@@Shanycolehi there! I really would like to know for how long you took it? Is it okay to take for several month? Or is it recommended to stop after say 3 months? And can you then start using it again whenever you want?

@raess2510 I took it for about three months. It was hard to get it consistently because of the shortage last year.

do you feel tired after shot? And do you hate food or just feel full with satiety therefore you dont need food? do you have depression?

I feel exhausted after the shot. That’s why I take it midday or at night. It definitely helps you get a good nights sleep. I have no depression. I just don’t feel hungry.
