"i am a prediabetic with glucose at 109 fasting.  i am taking victoza to lose weight and not become a full fledged diabetic.  after trying byetta which made me sick and not lose weight, my endocrinologist prescribed victoza july 2nd.  i have lost 6 pounds, eat only when i need to, eat foods that are better for me and have no nausea at all. in 3 weeks i have already bumped up to 1.8mg a day.  i love this medicine and will stay on it until i go from my current 180 to 125."
