"i started this medicine five days ago. i suffered from some pretty notable nausea the first two days, and occasionally i get a little lightheaded. those symptoms have basically worn off, and this is completely tolerable considering i have lost 8 lbs (182 to 174 &amp; i&#039;m only 5&#039;3&quot;) in this short period. my appetite is barely there, and i&#039;m full very quickly when i start eating. it&#039;s one of those, &quot;omg i can&#039;t eat another bite&quot; feelings which is so strange to me. i&#039;ve always been a member of the clean plate club!  my doctor was prepared to prescribe victoza instead of saxenda in the case that it wasn&#039;t covered by my plan, but they only required a prior authorization. i know the weight loss can&#039;t continue this quickly, but it&#039;s amazing so far!!!"
