"i&#039;ve been on saxenda for 3 weeks today.  i&#039;ve lost 3.5kg. i&#039;ve had some side affects, but nothing i can&#039;t deal with. i have waves of nausea sometimes.  i find if i eat anything really sugary i feel very ill straight after.  so it&#039;s stopped me eating lollies and cakes, which is great as i&#039;ve always been weak around those. i&#039;ve lost my appetite which is great as i&#039;m always was thinking about food, so it&#039;s good to think about other things instead.  i find i can only eat small portions of food otherwise i feel ill, i&#039;m not sure if that&#039;s the drug working or still some side effects. side effects definitely subside but once my dose increases again i get the side effects. i&#039;m sure once the drug dose stabilises all side effects should disappear."
