[QUOTE="jansouth, post: 37246, member: 12891"] Hi all, I am new to the forum, but would like to post about Byetta. I had been on diet control for two years, then a trial of Metformin. I battle my weight constantly, but had lost 2.5 stones in the last ten months. My diabetic nurse, who has been a total gem, has managed to get me onto Byetta, as I was so depressed about how my weight loss just stalls, no matter how little I eat. She explained the faulty mechanism that turns most of what we eat into fat and stores it. I started the 5mg dose on Thursday last week (this is my fifth day). I have not experienced any nausea, but diarrhoea has been a little troublesome. I fully expect this to settle. I notice my appetite is not brilliant, and I get full very quickly when I eat, but that suits me fine. My diabetic nurse says she has one patient who lost 12 KG in a month, although this lady's food intake was much greater than mine. I hope this helps, and I am happy to feed back as the weeks go by, if that helps anyone. I will commence the 10mg dose in just over 3 weeks Good luck and good health to everyone Janet x :wink: [/QUOTE]
