Hello,
Been so busy - will try to update as much as I can on a weekly basis.
My body wasn't responding to 1,500 calorie diet. I went down to 1,200 calorie and started to gain weight! And then I remembered that I had high glucose level & high A1C - which means I may have high insulin level and most likely leptin resistance from years of chronic dieting. I had to put myself back on Saxenda - and low and behold, after 4 days of being on it, I went down a couple of pounds. Doctor told me that if this med works for me, it is a huge indication that I may have to be on this med for life. I don't want to be on medications for life. I will try this med for a couple of weeks & will most likely wean myself off bc I want to try this natural supplement to lower my blood sugar level. Plus, I can't afford $500/month of medication - simply not feasible for me.
