That must be such an amazing feeling! Well done xHow’s everyone getting on?
I went shopping yesterday as I had nothing left that fits and was starting to look like a scruff in my baggy clothes. Everything I bought was a comfortable fitting 16 - down from a tight fitting 22 in July. 12/14 is my ‘happy place’ as I end up looking ill if I go any smaller and it starts to impact my long term health condition. It feels like it’s in touching distance now.
Fantastic, bet this felt amazingHow’s everyone getting on?

How many days have you missed? I think the advice is to start from 0.6 if you’ve had a break because of the side effects? You could probably move up the doses a bit quicker if you don’t feel it’s working. But I wouldn’t go straight back to 1.8 if you’ve been off it a while.I’ve gone way off lost 4 in the first week then upped dose the last couple weeks started to miss days then got covid and been sooo poorly I’ve went back to sw last night and put 4 back on.
Not sure weather i should just start again on the first dose or continue at the 1.8 and go again
Missed this part of your post earlier. I can’t help on the heartburn - the only time I’ve had that it’s usually down to something I’ve eaten that’s sat in my stomach (for me it was pepperamithe only things I don’t like about saxenda is the heartburn and not being able to use the toilet regularly, has anyone found a solution for this that’s not laxatives?
I’ve just started again at the beginning and so far so goodHow many days have you missed? I think the advice is to start from 0.6 if you’ve had a break because of the side effects?

Missed this part of your post earlier. I can’t help on the heartburn - the only time I’ve had that it’s usually down to something I’ve eaten that’s sat in my stomach (for me it was pepperami) so easily avoided. When I feel a little acidy I have some gum or sugar free polos and that seems to ease it.
For thetry dulcoease (definitely not to be confused with dulcolax! You want the blue box not the green) it’s a softener that you take a few times a day rather than a laxative. Helps to keep things moving. And drink plenty of water
Try not to panic just yet , I think the back twinge could be unrelated . I was the same when I started lol was like I have a pain in my leg ...MUST BE SAX!! but it wasn’t lol obviously I’m not a doctor and if you’re concerned see your gpHas anyone experienced twinges in their side/back from saxenda? I did my first jab late yesterday evening and have had a twitch in my back alllll day - it’s very annoying, like when your eye won’t stop twitching!
I was so nervous to start on this as I’m paranoid about the side effects (I actually tried saxenda 6+ months ago but only had 2 or 3 doses as the needles/cancer risks freaked me out). I have a feeling that I’ll be blaming it for everything ever wrong with my body
Thank youTry not to panic just yet , I think the back twinge could be unrelated . I was the same when I started lol was like I have a pain in my leg ...MUST BE SAX!! but it wasn’t lol obviously I’m not a doctor and if you’re concerned see your gp
And I couldn’t sleep lol nothing to do with the 4 cups of coffee a day ....must be the sax lolThank youthat’s exactly what I’m like at the moment, it must be it!!
Don’t be scared , it will be ok . Just grab a bit of chub on belly , at least 2inch from belly button as within 2in is most sensitive area I have heard . Breathe and try to relax . I never thought I could do it and I’m a real wimp with needles , I pass out at blood tests etcGetting my pen delivered tomorrow. Excited but scared
