My tummy knows when it has had enough to eat just have to re-educate my mind nearly said brain but I think it is the way I approach things that is letting me down pity to blame all the brain I have if I have one listening to some folks I am a brainless idiot not funny not nice not helping at all,since taking Victoza nearly 12 months ago my eating habits have changed out of recognition,mid night feats were a trademark of mine and I always had to have the last cake or biscuit but slowly no that is not true from week one on Victoza I started to get full up at meal times very quickly often not being able to finish the meal it was like having a stop tap in my brain and someone else not me turning it of telling me you are full up stop eating.
I lost 2 stone 7 pounds in 6 months may not seem a lot to you but I had been trying to loose weight for so many years I forget diet after diet cabbage diet low carb diet counting calories,grapefruit diet,you name it I have been on it some times I lost a few pounds here and there but as you well know I soon piled it all back on,and during the diets felt so hungry I could have eaten an elephant only joking love the big things, but you know what I mean maybe not perhaps you do not have a weight problem if so good on you you have missed the journey i had trying to loose weight I had forgotten what my feet looked like tummy got in the way but how good it is to be able to eat and not feel hungry afterwards,ok there was a price to pay the first few weeks on Victoza I had a few side affects or is it effects no I think the first one is right headaches nausea tummy pains and at one point I nearly gave up but after those first few weeks I felt ok less hungry and the nagging food pains had gone.
Here I am nearly 12 months later using less insulin able to see my feet and able to buckle up my belt and not feel hungry between meals, of course the hidden danger is thinking this wonder drug is the solution to my problem it helps well it more than helps I was fast becoming insulin intolerant that is why the doctor put me on Victoza no idea where i would be now if he had not,too awful to think about.
I have met a lot of cynics and folks that pho pho the drug I can only speak for myself it has made a difference in me you can see did it add to my depression I do not know let us face it when drugs mess with your brain there are bound to be some residual affects what a lovely word residual where is the dictionary not sure if our minds or bodies are ready for some of these drugs but when you are dangling from a high cliff by your finger nails you tend to grab onto anything handy,so nearly 12 months on I am still portly do not like the word fat or obese,I may be both or all but no points or kind thoughts for trying.
It is 9.31am should have had breakfast an hour ago but not feeling hungry have to stick to the game plan otherwise I will undo all the good work time for brekkie bye for now and to all you Victoza users let’s have you story we are all in this together,twiddlemthunbs
