"i started on this medication on march 6th.   to date i have lose 7 lbs, but i have not gone over the 0.6 dose.   i take the injection at night to minimize side effects.  i am mostly more thirsty and some burping and fatigue but manageable.  i will take the next level this week and see what it works re the side effects.   i am keeping to 1350 calories a day when i can as it is unhealthy to eat under 1200.  mostly veg, protein and carbs.   i am also doing 4 hours of exercise a week.   this medication is not a wonder drug as i worry about continued use and the thyroid issue, it is certainly a jump start to make you more aware of what you are eating and the need for exercise.   with all this combined i aim to lose another 55 lbs."
