Obesity
"I have only been on this med for a week. No lbs lost on the scale, but my belly seems flatter and coworkers say I look thinner. I have a BMI of 30 which may be why it will take me longer to lose the weight. I&#039;ve had severe nausea, moderate abdominal discomfort and heartburn. I&#039;m going to try protein shakes in the am as some folks here have suggested. On the downside my insurance  (which by all standards is fantastic), will not cover Saxenda. So, I paid $1100 out if pocket for the first month. I must be desperate! Guess I&#039;ll see how it continues to go. Good luck to everyone! Obesity sucks and I&#039;m tired of bring the chubby girl for 46 years! :("
