Byetta weight lost

I started on Byetta three months ago and also had to get used to the nausea but that has since gone away. I have also lost weight since starting Byetta. I was on Avandia and Glyburide and gained 200 pounds. Since stopping the Avandia and Glyburide I have lost almost seventy pounds. And all of the bad side effects from AV. and Gly. have gone away. Good luck to you and continued success! Harold

This is an injectable Protein Medication. It Works fine foe about a month and than it does not work well at all. Than ever person is different. Take at your own rish...Good Luck.

I've been using byetta for over a year, and haven't lost anything.
Are you taking it for diabetes? If so, what you have over the weekend seems a bit extreme, and really bad for sugar control. Some of the problems I've had with byetta are low sugars, which can be very scary, and not too pleasant (sweating, vomiting, weakness, disorientation, etc.). This is really embarrasing when it happens in public, and frightening for family members. I think that using byetta is not an excuse to eat whatever you want, or binge. It is supposed to supress the appetite, which is why I get low sugars -- I can't eat enough to keep them normal. If I am going to babysit the grandchild, I don't use it at all anymore, after I experienced a low while alone with her. a 2 year old can't call 911. Does anyone else have low sugar experiences with byetta?

I will be starting Byetta tomorrow (7/11/07). What are the side effects, if any?  When you lost the weight did you follow a specific plan or just cut down on eating.  Thanks
