Mysimba or Saxenda?

[Cath2712]

Hi everyone - I'm thinking of trying Mysimba - I have a good 10-15 lbs to get off and NOTHING is working. I lost two stone years ago on the old Slimming World green, but this is menopausal weight and is apparently stuck solid. Plus I was hoping it would help me stop craving sugary drinks like peach schnapps and cherry brandy, which are ruining me. I dont fancy the idea of jabs, due to cost and putting it straight back on when you stop. Is Saxenda better? Can anyone advise please. Menopause has been brutal and I feel I'm in somebody else's body all the time now, its really getting me down.

hi, did you try mysimba? i thinking of trying it x

Sorry no advice but I was reading thread title and thought I'd stumbled into the names forum.

I was really, someone would like to call their precious newborn Saxenda?

Made me laugh.

I am also menopausal and carrying more weight than I'd like, as a coincidence.

I'm on day 5 of Mysimba - feels like my appetite has been switched off. I know people get side effects from them, but other than day 1 where I felt sick and dizzy, I feel fine 🙂

Could you let me know how you get on? Mysimba a is about £120pcm from Superdrug - so it’s a bit of an outlay
