"i was getting frustrated with doing a lot of exercising and eating right but not losing weight. diabetes runs in my family. i decided to make one last attempt at asking my endocrinologist for something to help. as i had asked a few drs before but they would say, say exercise and cut your calories. anyhow i got given the saxenda, i had some mild nausea in the beginning. i&#039;ve lost 13 pound in 1 month. i still exercise and eat healthy. however, i did not exercise much 1 week, only 3 times and still lost weight. for me it worked great. suppressed my appetite, a little tiredness . but worth it. now i&#039;m just worried about maintaining my weight loss. that&#039;s the hardest part. will have to talk to dr. about it when i get there."
