I've learned a lot in 5 years and people, well.......

It's not mandatory like the covid vaccine was.

 

[Luke Cage]

hasn't been politicized yet.

 

[Hawaiian Punch]

It’s like elective surgery for anyone not taking it for diabetes.

That’s a them problem

 

[Vandelay]

People like to confirm their worldview and losing weight usually makes everyone feel better, no matter how much body positivity we have. Weight loss isn't typically a political topic.

Or heart disease

It's going to cause a lot of people to get frail prematurely.

The main reason people get frail when they get old is loss of muscle mass. Contrary to what they might believe, being on Ozempic doesn't just cause people to lose fat. It causes people to lose a lot of muscle that they'll probably never gain back (especially if they stay on it).

I suspect we'll see a lot of 50 year olds moving like they're 70 and fracturing their hips in falls and shyt in another decade or two.

Or heart disease

I don't think Ozempic treats heart disease?

Sure if you're obese maybe the weight loss will help prevent it but if you already have heart disease it's not going to unclog your arteries. Especially if you're skinny/average weight with heart problems.

Why do we need a conspiracy theory though?

nikka tweeted that shyt mad as hell ppl lost weight

 

[Pazzy]

Laziness got people taking risks with their lives and health instead of actually making lifestyle chances which isnt hard to make. shyt is sad.

 

[Buddy]

Just to add to this for clarification: Ozempic and GLP-1s at the most basic level of explanation cause you to eat less and feel full longer. Those things lead to less calories in, which inevitably leads to weight loss. Straight physics, laws of the universe. Your body will break down any tissues you don’t use to fill its energy needs and muscle is usually first to go. The only way to keep muscle mass or build it is to lift weights and eat protein.

Ozempic’s main draw is it also suppresses your brains signals to eat, which makes crash dieting easier
