Does this mean that we have collectively given up on staying in shape and let go and become fatties?

Everybody jumping on the Ozempic bandwagon.

Yet another corporation trimming fat.

The more fat people out there, the better. It just gives us fit people less competition for friends, sex, employment, and basically everything else. Cry all you want about equality. When push comes to shove, attractive and fit people who demonstrate self-discipline through physical fitness and moderated diet will always be preferential to fatass slobs in almost any situation.

Not entirely. Fatasses force healthcare costs up for the rest of us. You can't really sugarcoat the issue because they would eat it too.

ChatGPT can give you the same advice.

"As an AI language, fat people are gross"

that business model is dead. HIG owns them and wants to cut bait. No one in the "self health" space wants the weight around their neck that jenny craig has from the real estate and brick+mortar mentality.

Eating at El Jarro tonight, so yeah, pretty much.

Sounds like Jenny got O-O-O Ozempic'ed.

Why be responsible for yourself with a good diet and exercise when you can just take a type II diabetic medication that strips out fat and muscle for you?

where do i go to meet women now?

Don't know about everyone else, but I gave up a long time ago. I embraced my fatness and I am happy.

WalMart after 1 am in the plus size section has always worked for me. I pull out a ham sandwich nonchalantly and offer it to her saying I bought two for dinner and I'd rather a pretty woman eat it rather than have it be leftovers.

Jenny Craig decided to eat her losses.

You are a man of romance i see

We still have to live in fear of flying however. I'm not sure what the FAA has for weight safety margins in aircraft right now but I'm pretty sure every plane in the air containing significant numbers of Americans is much heavier than calculated. That may be why the pilots no longer point out interesting views on either side of the plane. If too many average Americans lean to the side to look, the plane may lurch over out of control.

fat people don't move unless we need to

Theres a thing called genetic variation. Fat people quite literally feel more hungry than skinny people and their body tells them to eat more and more frequently than a naturally skinny person. It's why you can look at a persons genetic report and say this person is x times more likely to be obese. Even at a healthy weight they are more inclined to feel hungry than a naturally skinny person.

I'm 6'3" 190 lbs. Don't have to work out to stay normal weight, don't have to diet to stay normal weight, and quite frankly haven't taken very good care of myself and have never even had to give a single thought about my weight. I can go 5 days without eating and would not once feel hungry. At worst I would feel tired for a day.

What semaglutide does is makes their body respond to hunger similar to the way my body does. It makes it easier for them to exist in a caloric restricted state when they need to lose weight and easier to maintain that weight once they do achieve a healthy weight. And the muscle mass they lose due to taking the drug is not markedly different than the muscle mass they'd lose if they lost the weight just by dieting and can be offset by exercise. Losing fat means losing muscle too, that's how the body works.


Would you tell my brother, who is double APOE4 that he just needs to clean up his diet to reduce his cholesterol when he's dramatically genetically predisposed for higher cholesterol? Or can he just take a statin to combat his genetic predisposition and reduce his risk of heart disease? While eating a mostly vegan diet his cholesterol was dramatically higher than mine while I can eat fried foods.

That doesn't mean fat people don't have a responsibility to try to adapt their behavior towards a healthier lifestyle, but it's stupid to tell them that in the presence of a drug (if proven to be safe) that can help them lose weight they should ignore that drug because there's a "right way" to do it.



You know what I want? Less fat people sitting next to me on the plane or at a game. If they can do that with an injection and that injection won't cause them to drop dead from a heart attack at 30, I say shoot it up.

As far as it being a diabetes drug, tell all the old farts their little blue pill is off limits because it wasn't produced as a way to fix their flaccid skin flute, but rather to reduce their blood pressure.

O O O Ozempic!

My husband can eat anything he wants and won't gain an ounce. I can look in the general direction of food and gain five pounds. Aside from being fat, I am in excellent health and my doctor says I landed the genetic variation that predisposes me to very low cholesterol and low risk of other cardiovascular problems.

I have taken Ozempic and Mounjourno. No effects.

No effects like no "side effects," or they don't work for you?

I thi k reducing obesity across the population and lifespan would be a positive for society and for insurance rates. I never understood how there was not a greater cry for weight loss during covid since its effects were the primary cause of severe outcome.

Anyway, of course we could not hurt fat peoples feelings and so nothing happened and folks got fatter and then took paxlovid. I give up! I guess if a pandemic could not help people, or encourage Healthcare professionals to be brave enough to tell people to lose weight on national platforms. nothing will.

Yeah, but get this - my insurance will cover medication, treatment, doctor visits, specialists, etc. for all of the health problems and ailments that result from obesity, yet they will not cover medications or anything else that treats or prevents obesity as the primary cause of those things. My doctor prescribed Mounjaro and insurance turned it down because my A1C is 5.6, not 5.8. I submitted a HSA reimbursement request for the Noom program costs and it was rejected as an "ineligible expense."

I'm not one to subscribe to conspiracy theories, but sometimes it really does feel like "Big Pharma" just wants to keep Americans unhealthy because it helps them make money.
