"i started taking saxenda jan 21, 2016 with .6mg and i weighed 222.  first three days i could not eat, when i did it was very little i always felt sick, but after the three days i felt better. no cravings at all, actually no desire for food, i just eat to eat, and give me energy. i always use to eat sweets after every meal, i have not had one sweet since doing the injections. today it has been 13 days on injections i am up to 1.2mg and am down 9lbs, 213. i feel good and barely any symptoms. i read that the number one side effect is constipation so i started taking magnesium citrate and i have had no issues with that. i have also started going to the gym. i take the medication right before bed around 11-11:30pm."
