I came from South Park 😂😂
Some of these people arent even obese. If they told these people the covid vaccine made you lose weight they would have taken that too 😂😂
Go to the gym and eat better people
Why cant pharmacy company's and doctors restrict its access at all to people who aren't diabetic or obese or struggle with A1C . There needs to be a approval system to get it. must be diagnosed with diabetes and obese with high A1C .
If you are just using it off label you should not be allowed at all regardless if you can pay for it without insurance.
These stupid vain people are taking it away from people like me who are diabetic and need it.
What's an alternative
Smdh
Diabetic with PCOD here. I take tablets Semaglutide 7mg pills helped me lose 10kgs in 1 month. But as soon as I went up to 14mg I started having terrible gastric symptoms, particularly gastric dumping, diarrhea, and gas. I think the doze was too much for my body to handle. Can anyone suggest what can be done to lessen the side effects. It has really helped control my diabetes.
I wonder if it could help people that are obese? There’s a show that comes on television for people that are 600 plus. One woman couldn’t take off 40pounds, out of almost 700. She had such difficulty, that she left the show and will die if she cannot change. This would’ve saved her life.
For vanity, no. There’s many obese people that cannot breathe from multiple reasons; extremely overweight should not be one of them with something like this available. It should be FDA approved for both.
Now that the demand for this medication has increased, the simple solution would be produce more. That’s just bad business not too
Bro, i had to use Ozempic because I'm hypoglycemic, and my pancreas doesn't produce enough insulin. I eat well and fast often and exercise 2 hours a day 5 days a week and Im pretty husky. It made sense now after getting my physicals done. Im grateful that I only have to pay $400 a month but I do have to get tested once a week at my Doctor's office.
This why I can't get it 😢
People are dumb. There are no shortcuts.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t blame people who are looking to lose weight. Especially people with insulin resistance, PCOS, hormonal imbalances, or anything else that makes weight almost impossible to lose. Diabetics are worried about their health, and rightfully so. But people that are overweight are concerned about their health to and all that comes with being overweight. Let’s increase production or create something specifically for weight loss. Unless there’s a reason they don’t want people to lose weight. 👀
Candace Owens spoke about first…
I really want to lose weight pls help
Please I’m in Ghana how will I get some
It saved me. I’m diabetic and it has helped me so much. I was on it for 5 months and stopped once I lost the weight I need to. I have been off ozempic for 15 months now and have not regained any weight. My diabetes is so much better controlled.
Doesn’t do a thing for weight loss for me. Does help my Diabetes.
It terrifies me on how Ozempic and other diabetes medications are being approved to treat BINGE EATING DISORDER and BULIMIA!!! Yeaaa let’s just throw appetite suppressants on Serious, life threatening, eating disorders… great for the symptoms but a nightmare for long term!
The people who needs it for diabetes can’t get their hands on it
I tried it in March and April but it didn't work for me so it is a scam news
So y’all taking from us like what
I’m a nurse, this is not safe… are these people monitoring their glucose levels? If you take a medication used to lower glucose with a normal glucose level you can bottom yourself out… this is very dangerous! However if your Dr prescribes this and teaches you the do’s and don’t’s then I mean all to you however this is ridiculous
Bet they didint tell you the vaccines in it lol 😢😢😢
Stop 🛑 taking this. If you gain weight again your body will not make enough insulin. You will become diabetic
I feel like this is one of those things that if you stop suddenly or your body gets used to it/reacts, you’ll just gain even more weight later on. Just exercise and diet. Healthier for your body overall
