"I have been under my doctor's care since February 2022 on Victoza. I have lost 70 lbs. I know it seems slow, but it is working. Twelve more lbs. and I will be out of the 200s. It is worth doing. It can make you ill if you eat too much."

"My doctor just prescribed this for me. Today is my first day, and I'm very excited to see all the positive reviews. My sugar is also a bit on the high side, so I'm hoping it helps with that as well. I just started at the lowest dose. I didn't even feel the needle (hope it went in!! lol). I am hoping to lose 25 to 30 pounds. I have tried other prescription diet aids and did not like the side effects of most. I will update shortly to advise on any side effects and results! Good luck, everyone."
