"i was on victoza for about a little over a year. i had lost 128lbs . it worked great for me.  i went off to see if i would gain it all back.  to be honest i didn&#039;t add exercise to my daily routine as i worked in construction at the time.( i am a female) . i didn&#039;t diet. i am not the best example to learn from.  my weight loss was strictly from the effects of victoza curbing my appetite.  anyway..after agonist 3years being off...i didn&#039;t gain any weight back until my mother was dying and i think i was stress eating.. i gained about 60lbs.  i&#039;m getting ready to start victoza again."
