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!!!

    Recognizing early satiety cues and managing portion sizes during GLP-1 therapy is a vital step toward long-term metabolic flexibility. Prioritizing protein-dense meals helps manage hunger comfortably while preserving lean muscle mass and minimizing gastrointestinal discomfort from accidental overeating. Mymetabolism offers personalized nutrition frameworks, strength guidance, and metabolic tracking to help convert medication milestones into lasting, resilient health.

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...

STARTING WEEK 2 OF SAXENDA

What a week!! I am very pleased with how things are going so far. I lost 6.9 pounds this week!!!!! So excited! I will up my dosage today and will continue until I am at 3. I wasn't as hungry but not as much as I was hoping. I do know a normal size meal wouldn't fill me up before I started Saxenda and now I feel full and not hungry. The changes I did make to my diet are: Eating slowly No fast food (unless unavoidable) No soda No sweets LOTS OF WATER Limit carbs when able 1200-1300 calories a day I'm hoping as I up my dosage I will feel full even more so I don't feel as hungry. I definitely had to use some willpower this week to not eat sometimes. As far as side effects I was blessed and I hope I continue to be so. I was only a little nauseous the first 2 days and then it subsided. The only time it came back was when I overate or ate too fast. I've been eating an Activia yogurt daily to help with digestive issues and so far no complaints on that end. I a...

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.
