Yes, it actually works really well for weight loss because it completely kills your appetite. I have been on it for three months under my doctor's supervision and have lost about 8 kgs. But you have to manage the nausea.

Liraglutide can support weight reduction for diabetic or obese patients, but the medicine must be balanced with gentle physical movement. Doing daily sheetali pranayama helps cool down the stomach if you feel any burning sensation or nausea from it.

Yes, it is medically proven to help with weight loss, but you must take it only if prescribed by an endocrinologist.

I know how exhausting it is to struggle with obesity and feel like nothing is working. Liraglutide did help me shed some weight, but the emotional struggle with food cravings doesn't just vanish. Be kind to yourself during this process.
