Week 12 and 13 SAXENDA Update!!!

Well I'm super excited to say that as of today I have lost 26.2 pounds! Week 12 I lost 2.2 and this week I lost 2.4!

I'm still at 1.8 and feeling fairly normal. I will say this medicine is still working even if I am getting hungry. I feel full after eating small portions AND if I decide to stuff myself (labor day bbq anyone) this medicine lets me know with a nasty case of Sulfur burps.. UGH SO GROSS! So it's a little reminder that it's not good to over eat no matter how tasty the food is.

I'm not perfect and I am still making mistakes along this journey but I'm keeping my eyes forward. I can't beat myself up over the days I fail. I need to stay focused and positive. Like i've said before it's a marathon not a sprint.

Please share with me how your journeys are going! Oh and I posted a TIPS video on my video blog. Here it is!



Hope everyone is doing well! Will post soon!!!

3 month Saxenda Update

Hello everyone! Sorry it's been awhile since I have posted!! I put this on my video blog the other day but I also wanted to post here that I've decided to post both written and video blog once a month to keep everyone updated. If I get alot of questions then I will post more. In 3 months I lost 28 pounds!!! I'm super excited! I'm still at 1.8. I tried to go up to 2.4 and felt really sick so I went back down to 1.8. My doc is on board and as long as it's working he's cool with me staying at 1.8 I'm hoping to go off my blood pressure meds soon. My bp was the lowest it's been in years at my doc appt last week so that's also exciting!!! Please let me hear from those of you on saxenda about how it's going! Also for those of you thinking about it go ahead and post some questions. I'd love to tell you more about it. I'll post again in a month! Here's my progress pic from start to 3 month pic I can really tell and I know i&

Rough week last week and starting week 10 of Saxenda

Image
Well last week was a rough one for me. For some reason my self control was at a 0 last week. Those of you out there who have a true emotional addiction to food can feel my pain. It was as if nothing could satisfy my cravings and all I wanted was the really bad stuff. I indulged.... a lot and I knew it meant the scale yesterday morning would mean no loss but at the time I just gave in. I had to re start my commitment to myself today. There are so many people out there who can't get this medicine because their insurance won't cover it or they get too sick on it to stay on it. I'm blessed that although I have some side effects for the most part I'm good on this medicine and above all it works! So I'm back to the basics this week.  I'm going to try and restrict my carbs, and stay within my 1200 calorie limit. I'm going to drink a lot of water and avoid sweets and fast food. I think I'm so used to failing that before when on a diet whenever I had a rough we

Well today marks exactly one month on Saxenda!! I lost 3.4 on week 4 for a total of 16.8!!! I'm super excited!!! I can tell a little bit myself that my body is changing but I don't think it's visible to anyone else yet. Here's a side by side of may pic on left and today's pic on right. I'm still at 1.8 and I do now get hungry but I'm still full after eating a small portion. I'm staying within 1200-1300 calories a day. For those who prefer to watch rather than read or for those who like both. Here's my video blog link. Don't forget to subscribe and I will update again next week!
