I'm seriously confused how so many people get it.

Its really not hard. You go to a doctor and say you want to get on it. They say ok and send a prescription.

Some doctors will not prescribe it for weight loss unless you have diabetes

approved for weight loss now. Not hard to find a doctor that will approve it

There’s compound pharmacy’s that make a generic for a monthly fee.

If EVERYONE in Brazil is taking it, it's not working.

I can only imagine the price will continue to drop. There's already competition

Compounded semaglutide already exists

What’s the benefit of ozempic over compounded semaglutide?

They are the same thing

Any side effects for you or wife?

None

Some people don’t tolerate even a low dose, vomiting.
Soupie
May 25, 7:42am
Tirzepatide has fewer side effects. Taking a half dose every 4 days also helps.

I don’t fully understand how it works, but there has to be muscle loss too with this, correct?

They say to definitely up your protein intake. But then there are constipation

But at least you’ll look good while your constipated 😉
Crowd Factor

Or what other side effect you have. Honestly vanity is very powerful.
pink22
May 25, 10:48am
Sometimes it has nothing to do w/ vanity but rather health & life longevity.
Soupie
May 25, 1:08pm
Right but everyone I know taking it isn’t overweight
pink22
May 25, 1:17pm
Then you know some vane people but don’t lump everyone together. It’s like saying the gym is full of

BMI 25+ is overweight. Maybe they aren’t since they take it?

Anyone who loses weight will lose muscle. Exercise and protein decrease that

Kind of

It works by slowing the digestion process. Feel full much longer.

And that is all it is

Bad take
byuinva
May 25, 11:00am
It's very accurate. Semaglutide is an appetite suppressant
Belboz
May 25, 11:07am
But they’d be miserable with a much lower probability of success. Don’t think people realize that the same 1500 cals in
Soupie
May 25, 1:12pm
But the key is the same; eat less
Belboz
May 25, 1:41pm
And if a person faithfully tracks eating 1000-1200 cals a day, do you suppose they should lose weight? What if they dont
Soupie
May 25, 4:00pm
If a person takes semaglutide and loses weight while eating 1000 calories
Belboz
May 25, 4:48pm
It’s more than an appetite suppressant, and the human body is more complicated
byuinva
May 25, 4:14pm
A simple Google search refutes your basic claim. It’s so much more than an

I'll critique one point in that before going too far

Curious what could convince you that “I’m fat because of my genes”.

Eat less and lose weight
Belboz
May 25, 1:44pm
Not sure how much you’ve studied obesity but that sounds perfect for someone with a genetic predisposition to thinness.
5150man
May 25, 1:53pm
If you eat less and lose weight, tne eating less probably contributed
Belboz
May 25, 1:55pm
Eating less 100% contributed. The “ability” to eat less has a genetic component that these drugs can influence.

Real life hunger games. Disgusting
chismoso
May 25, 7:36am
I’m not sure how this is different than any other form of dieting.
lilpenny
May 25, 7:45am
Thats convenient. You dont see a difference in being gluttonous only to take
chismoso
May 25, 7:47am
Those who work out often take all sorts of supplements to “trick” their body into higher performance.
Soupie
May 25, 7:52am
The original post basically said people will gorge on food for holidays
chismoso
May 25, 8:42am
Believe I addressed that aspect.
Soupie

Bringing up waste of food resources is bizarre.
Madam Pattirini
May 25, 9:11am
Because that's the only outcome, right?
sah22

The people who get mad about others becoming healthy is crazy.
WP17

The people who make assumptions based on 15 words posted are crazy

Outside of active war zones famine/hunger is a thing of the past. Diabetes is now the issue in sub Saharan Africa

People are addicted to food. Lots of people want to eat less but can’t do it
Reasonable1
May 25, 8:15am
The social aspect of food is crazy too. People act insulted if you don’t participate.
Soupie
May 25, 8:24am
You literally have no idea what you are speaking about
Socrates Johnson
May 25, 8:30am
Correct. I don’t see a difference
lilpenny
May 25, 8:50am
So often, we confuse losing weight with exercise
Belboz
May 25, 11:05am
Except it’s the opposite of hunger. It’s the real life “not hungry” games.
Reasonable1

I am on it and notice nothing don’t feel full or anything
karatekid
May 25, 8:06am
How long & how have you increased dose?
Soupie
May 25, 8:12am
I am about to take my third dose today
karatekid
May 25, 8:13am
Small increase in doses
karatekid
May 25, 8:14am
May just need longer & to get to higher dose.

You are probably on 1/8 the final dose

Hmmm you don’t feel like you are exacerbating inequality?

I've only been back for 12 hours after a 3-day suspension, so... No.

Its like no one remembers Fen-phen.

This is a good point, IMO. But people do remember.

Ya, I don’t trust meds until they’ve been in the market for a decade and then

There is no 'free lunch'

And semaglutide works more like a crutch
