"i&#039;ve been researching a lot about victoza/saxenda before i asked my doctor for a rx. the reviews about side effects on this site really scared me, but i was determined, so i started using victoza last week. 

i have not have any negative side effects!

starting at 0.6 mg i am slowly increasing the dose (on a weekly basis) to max 3 mg per day. time will tell if side effects increase with a higher dose but what i&#039;ve read so far rather says &quot;if you get through the first 2 weeks you&#039;ll be fine&quot;. 

from the first day on i could feel how i needed less food to feel full. smaller portions. no cravings for junk, rather for healthy foods.

oh and the needle doesn&#039;t hurt one bit! i literally can&#039;t feel it!"
