No, it's too new. I like to wait for a couple of years to make sure everything's cool. Let us know how you do with it. I'm interested to know.
Going on it in 2 weeks under Doctor supervision. The Doctor has about 50 patients on it and the results are staggering.
Any sides? Saggy skin, fatigue, dizziness, headaches, anything?

I am in to it 1 week, I am down 9lbs already this stuff just makes you not hungry at all. I am running Test E not to loose muscle with it and forcing myself to eat high proteins.
Do you have diabetes? do you mind sharing why you were prescribed this in the first place? curious...
No I do not, Doctor I am seeing prescribed it for weight loss. I am down 15lbs now and not lost any muscle. I am running Test with it.Quote:

Are you getting any serious sides?
I did a quick check (online) with one of the largest pharmacy chains in the philippines and its not available here yet. Please keep posting your progress, i am very interested.
hope there is not a rebound effect?
I am down 21lbs now the stuff works, I am just not hungry no real sides and i am up to 1.8mg per day. I have 20lbs more to go I am running test with it so i have not lost any muscle.
Incredible. I bet you feel better with the weight off. Thanks for the update.
Boost...you feel good on this? That is a lot of weight for about a month. I have a friend on appetite supressant and she is down 20 lbs. Happy for you!!
I feel killer 20lbs is 80 sticks of butter gone, I think running the Test with it helps. I am doing 200mg a week that seems to be the sweet spot for my body. I do not feel tired, lack of energy or anything like that yet I am not eating much. Goal for my size is 210lb then I will run the test out and start PCT.Quote:

While taking Victoza, tell your doctor if you get a lump or swelling in your neck, hoarseness, trouble swallowing, or shortness of breath. These may be symptoms of thyroid cancer."
WOW! now that is good to know. Thanks, Twist.
Anything has side effects. I am on Doctor supervision and checked weekly but it is always nice to know the sides. Thank youQuote:

Are you still feeling good? Lots of energy?
Down 30lbs feel awesome no side effects and the test is really doing me well, it is adding on muscle and the fat weekly continues to come off. Your just not hungry, many would think you would loose muscle I am only eating lean high protein and I think the test is helping big time. 15lbs to go, then I will taper off it.
I am glad that you lost the weight.
Allthough it is very good to lose unwanted and unnecessery weight, I think it is more important how you lose it then the fact that you have lost it.
The reason for the 'how' to be important is that this how reveals the true problem the weight is there in the first place.
Losing weight through correct diet and excercise is an indication that the person understood what the real problem in the first place was, namely wrong diet and lack of excercise, and has effectively changed that for the good.
Losing weight in other ways that are mostly facilitated through medication will in some cases bring the same results but will not adress the real problem underneath (such factors as motivation, knowledge, consistency).
Also losing weight without knowledge of the body and diet will produce less total weight, but the qualitative results will be a lot less then when using correct methods to lose weight and preserve muscle.
In many cases the subject, once off treatment, will continue doing the same as before because this root problem has not been adressed.
It is like a see-saw, the person is in the middle and there are two compounds doing the work ('weight off' on one side and 'muscle preservation' on other).
The results will be that the total weight of the see-saw will be lowered but the person wil remain unchanged.

I have been eating tuna right out of the can and its yummy, were a year ago I thought it was gross.
any progress pics?
