weight loss
"I have been taking Saxenda since March 1, 2016.  In the last 5 months and 1 week, I have lost 48 lbs.  I started out at 268 lbs and am now at 220 lbs.  This medication has been life changing for me.  The only side effect I experience is constipation.  I try to combat this by drinking lots of water and taking Senokot at bedtime.  If anyone has better suggestions for this, I'd love to hear as this is my greatest struggle at the moment. I give myself the injection at night before bed.  My goal is to lose another 40 lbs before I re-evaluate where I am with the medication.  My appetite has drastically lowered, so I find I really need to ensure I'm making smart choices when eating, like adding healthy fats to give me more calories."
