"i have been on victoza for 8 weeks.  i am a type 2 diabetic and started victoza to help control my blood sugar levels but the weight loss that has come with taking this medication is what made me a believer.  i had all the side effects the first two weeks but it was never intolerable and an amazing weight loss of a pound a day during that time kept me taking the medicine.  the weight loss has slowed to a slow but steady rate of 1-2 pounds per week and after 8 weeks i have lost 26 pounds.  i feel better than i have felt in years!  i love this medication!"
