My Saxenda Journy

So I decided I would start trying. I say trying because I'm horrible at keeping up with stuff like this.

I wanted to try to start keeping a bit of a journal on my journey with Saxenda.  I do not know if this medication will work for me but I am really hoping...

I'm going to start that I don't have high expectations. It's better to not do so because then I am not nearly as bummed if it doesn't work.

So I started my Shots Monday. Well, rather Sunday night before I headed to bed.


Monday For some reason I woke up super hungry. I was light headed Most all of the day and more so when I would eat but not anything I couldn't handle or work through.

Tuesday I again woke up really hungry and was hungry all day. Still, a bit light headed but not too bad, but I just overall didn't feel that good most of the day and I was super tired all day.

Wed. Felt a bit nauseated but not real bad.  I wasn't real hungry but at a granola bar. Had lunch out with friends than for dinner I had some fresh veggies because I just wasn't very hungry. As the evening went on (and the evening is when I have the most hunger normally) I was a bit hungry so I had got out my favorite ice cream and decided to eat some. Well, I did eat some, but not much because well the ice cream kind of tasted like cold sugary butter. It was odd.  So instead I had some fruit.
I still struggled with being super tired ALL DAY...

Thursday. So far today I'm feeling a bit nauseated. And I'm still very tired. I mean I could totally go back to bed and be happy. I hope the tiredness goes away with time.  I don't feel like eating at all but I got out my granola bar and forced myself to eat. I need to work a lot harder on drinking more water... Not sure how to do that, but its a must. I also have a headache and I recall having a headache Monday as well. We will see if it becomes a pattern.

I would say so far overall I'm doing better with the side effects than I hear many people have. So hopefully when I got up a dose it will still be okay... I'm going to wait till I adjust to this does before I go up.
So just made myself and tuna sandwich for lunch because I was finally feeling a little hungry. But it tastes gross. I made myself each 3/4 of it. But I think I will go get some more fresh veggies. don't don't taste gross.

over all day.. Went pretty well. Tired tired... Wasn't able to eat much at dinner. So at some and 3 hours later ate a bit more.... Going to do my shot and head to bed.
