Hi everybody
I'm glad you're here! I just started it on Mon June 20th, after gaining back 150lbs (I had used a 12 step no-carb plan) due to Life and Circumstances (loooong story). In the past few years, I've tried Qsymia, Contrave, Belviq, Adipex... and I haven't felt the control I feel now with Saxenda. The nausea is a lot, but not unbearable. My GP gave me the 17 day sample kit and I'm trying to get my insurance co (BC/BS) to give me Prior Authorization. Otherwise, the cost is more than my mortgage!
I'd love to hear from you guys, what your experience has been and any advice you have to offer.
Cheers!

I've been on it since February. I'm down from 225.7 to 169.8. I find that you really have to let the medication dictate your hunger. I haven't felt nausea in months. My weight loss has slowed, but, it's still happening!3
