my wife is using VICTOZA and has had amazing results she fills up on a piece of toast and has to force herself to snack when its time 4 cashews or almonds does her in.  I think its like a chemical stomach bypass the way it works she has lost a pound a day so far

A pound a day? Crazy

A pound a day doesn't sound healthy at all. Not eating is also not good at all. 

Also you drop weight that fast you'll end up with skin flaps and folds all over the place. 

Look for more gradual and healthier weight loss. 1-2 pounds a week should be a responsible aim. 

Sounds like as soon as as she's off this drug she'll rebound hard and regain all she lost.

you are right to a point alot of what she is loosing is water weight at this point.  The victoza does work and once the water weight is off the weight loss becomes less dramatic and you are looking at 2-3 pounds a week on avg.   the issue for some is they need that drug to curb appetite and control cravings that the reason for the Victoza.  It works almost the same way as metformin but is a better choice.   the 1st two weeks are insane because of the nausia and headaches but she is now at the tail end and is finding it more easier to eat.  Her Dr is closely watching this and will be checking blood sugar levels through out this we are thing she will be on it for 1 -3 months,  then doses are slowly dialled back and she goes back to normal.  This medication is not used lightly by her DR but her body took a beating the last few years and this seems to be helping Big time,.   But yes EAZY you are right and we are all over it
