About weight loss

  • About weight loss

  • What causes weight gain?

  • How can weight loss be maintained?

The United Kingdom has around 63% of both male and female adults being classed as overweight. It has also been revealed that obesity is the 2nd largest preventable cause of cancer (only behind smoking). Factors that could have caused this rise in obesity levels in the UK may include the rise in processed foods, lack of knowledge around healthy eating and lifestyle, average prices of healthy foods being higher than that of other countries.

Weight gain is in the most general term, when an individual eats too much and doesn't move enough. But there are many sub-reasons as to why an individual can gain weight.

One of the most common causes of weight gain is binge eating. Binge eating is when an individual eats food which contains a high amount of sugar and fats, then does the same thing over and over again once the sugar rush of the previous food disappears. Also the amount of times a day someone eats can lead to weight gain, regardless of whether they are not eating highly concentrated fatty/sugary foods or healthy foods, portion size and frequency all contribute to weight gain.

Lack of exercise and movement can lead to weight gain. Things like driving to work when a walk is possible, or taking the lift when the stairs are available are small factors that can contribute hugely to an individual's weight. It is recommended that all adults do at least 1 hour of exercise a day, especially when an individual's job means they have to be sitting for large amounts of hours in the day.

The NHS have listed some ways that you can keep weight off after losing weight. These include sticking to lower calorie eating, planning ahead, staying active, watching your weight by weighing yourself regularly, getting support from other people on a weight loss journey, keeping variety in your life and setting yourself goals. These tips can help you make sure that you don’t lose all the hard work you’ve worked to achieve.

Saxenda

What is Saxenda?

Saxenda is a weight loss treatment that contains the active ingredient Liraglutide. It helps you lose weight and it is FDA approved for obesity. It’s injected into the body each day and the course of treatment works best when it’s combined with a reduced-calorie diet and an increased exercise program.

How to use Saxenda?

- Inject your dose under the skin (subcutaneously) in your stomach area (abdomen), upper leg (thigh), or upper arm. Do not inject into a vein or a muscle.

- Change (rotate) your injection sites within the area you choose, in order to reduce your risk of getting lumps under the skin. Do not use the same site for each injection.

How does Saxenda work?

- Your body naturally produces an appetite hormone known as glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) that helps to regulate your hunger

- Saxenda works like GLP-1 by regulating your appetite, which can lead to eating fewer calories and losing weight

How long does Saxenda take to work?

Saxenda will start working straight away and will help reduce your appetite within a few days. You will be able to see weight loss results within the first few months of treatment.

After about 17 weeks of using Saxenda, you can expect to lose at least 5% of your starting weight. If you have not, contact your healthcare professional to try an alternative treatment.

How is Saxenda used?

Saxenda is indicated as an adjunct to a reduced-calorie diet and increased physical activity for weight management in adult patients with an initial Body Mass Index (BMI) of

• ≥30 kg/m² (obeseity), or

• ≥27 kg/m² to <30 kg/m² (overweight)

In the presence of at least one weight-related comorbidity such as dysglycaemia (pre-diabetes or type 2 diabetes mellitus), hypertension, dyslipidemia or obstructive sleep apnoea. Treatment with Saxenda should be discontinued after 12 weeks on the 3.0 mg/day dose if you have not lost at least 5% of your initial body weight.

How to store Saxenda?

Try to store it in a refrigerator (2°C–8°C) and do not freeze it by storing it away from the freezer compartment.
Keep the cap on the pen in order to protect it from light.

Possible side effect?

Saxenda is considered a safe agent to lose weight if used as directed. In general, the most common side effect is related to gastrointestinal reactions.
