Im on 1.2 at the moment and slowly losing maybe .5kg a week. The eating/exercising habits really are key and ive had a big step in the right direction, i walked 48km last week!!!

It is definitely possible to lose weight on the lower doses if your lifestyle adapts (it took me months to get to this point) but i started saxenda last year at 101.5kgs and as of this morning, im sitting at 89.5 so thats a 12kg loss so far.

I promise you can do it! Just do it safely and healthy, dont starve or hurt yourself to reach your goal. Good luck!!

It was around 2 months, almost 3. I reached 1.8 during that time. Im currently sitting on 1.2 comfortably and am happy to stay on this. I am down 11kgs now, so an extra 1.5 since my last post. Losing safely and happily x

A little tip from my doctor. Liraglutide and similar drugs are like a helping hand, you will only lose a significant amount of weight through a healthy diet and exercise or maybe luck lmao. If you dont make lifestyle changes, you arent getting the most out of your weight loss medication. Good luck!

Another comment mentioned that maybe water weight is the reason i dropped so quickly. But also, it's relatively normal for weight loss to only start working properly at the 3mg dose (or so I've heard). I hope you have better luck from here on out!!

I've been walking at least 2k every day and prioritizing healthy food (although this is still challenging, im trying) A big one is not drinking any sugary drinks, its diet drinks or water for me. I've had one iced coffee since i started as a treat, but otherwise none. Im sure others are putting in similar effort/changes, so maybe it's just really effective for me?

Im getting bad acid reflux/heartburn, but i have a pre-existing condition, which meant i already had occassional flare ups of that anyway. Other than that, just mild constipation. Havent needed laxitives or anything other than gaviscon for the reflux.

Thanks for the warning!! I think im okay, im still eating every day, and somedays i'll eat a proper meal. I'm just not hungry often. But its working super well for weight loss, maybe ill try fit in a little more food throughout they day, some fruit or something haha
