Victoza (liraglutide) for weight: In the seminal trial for fda approval patients lost 6% of their body weight on a 3mg dose. If you want to lose weight though it is all about the diet.

Weight loss: You are on the right track! with your initiative in exercising for more than 30 min daily and taking control of your diabetes, you can expect some weight loss. Everyone's situation is different, but you may expect a 5% weight loss initially with victoza (liraglutide). Remember, that diet and exercise make a huge impact also. Eat low glycemic index foods( high in fiber). You will see results.
