Was definitely worth my fight! My blood sugars last week were in the high 20's.
Felt awful.

Since going on Victoza I am now already seeing my bs back in normal range - and my appetite definitely much better.

I feel like I have boundless energy and am waking early after a good nights sleep. Dizziness gone, headache gone, thirst gone. Amazing.

I just wanted to check about carbs (will post in foods also) but I am finding I am managing now on approx. 35g carbs a day and about 18g sugars and between 1100-1200 cals. Are the carbs okay at this level? I am really looking to lose some weight but it just wouldn't come off before due to constant hunger which has now vanished.
 
This is great news. Am glad to hear you're feeling better.
It just makes me so mad when we have to fight for things
 
Brilliant outcome - well done for fighting :D
