I haven't seen a video in a while and, I adore your style! Loving all the matching gold so much! They make your eyes sparkle
The biggest problem i have with people using Ozempic just to lose a few pounds as fast as they can, is that people who are diabetic and actually need the medicine, can't get it. My friend from Germany has been waiting to get his Ozempic for weeks, despite having a perscription, because the pharmacy can't get any new batches due to the shortage, mostly caused by people who don't actually need it. He's currently on a waiting list. Mind you in Europe, Ozempic is not authorized to use as a weight loss medicine, but some Doctors still give it out to people, mostly because they make a lot of money from of it.
The ozempic face makes them look like extras rejected from the Cats musical.
I heard Cody padrino can help you get ozempic 😂
okay, but I was generally sad the video was over because you were saying such good points I did want it to go on forever.
I can’t take this stuff because my mom had thyroid cancer.
Bro, remember 50 yrs ago when we giving housewives a shit ton of legal meth just to “curb their appetite.” This is kind of the same craze all over again except with less incoherent tweaking moms
That opening introduction line was fire! Damn boi!
Haven’t even started the video, but the title grabbed my attention because someone whom I’m very close with, and has diabetes, didn’t have ozempic for almost a month. Got very sick. The pharmacy was out because most people are using it as a weight loss drug. People need to lose weight the old fashioned way, working out. People need the medicine for their own health and life more than you need it for your weight loss.
Thank you for reading.
Edit 1: fixed ‘Thank’ from Tank lmao
My cousin's neighbor is very overweight and has been seeing a Dr for it for a while and she can't seem to loose anything. She always comes to family events and she doesn't seem to eat much and goes for the healthier options but can't loose so her Dr did prescribe her ozempic but it's a shot once every 4-5 months at his office depending on the results. I heard these celebs are doing it weekly even that's crazy to me! Like no wonder their results are Soo drastic and deceiving the public into thinking they can look like that also when their abusing how much and often to get those quick drastic results!
live and work in hollywood now- i was ozempic and didn’t know 😭 and yes, these ppl are weird. headed back to east coast this year, pray for me friends
My favourite argument when people say "Fat people drain the health care system" is that athletes do too. They get injured a lot, require care that goes way above the two check-up appointments one should go to per year and also usually leave their career at a very young age because they are literally breaking their bodies. However, noone is complaining over a football star being too dedicated…
One interview I heard with a "successful" Ozrmpic user talked about the fact that she instantly felt more relaxed and around food. She thought "This must be how normal people feel". Which I thought was interesting.
Thank you for talking sbout the rise in eating disorders in men and boys. It's frightening. As an old-school feminist, can I just say that when we talked about equality this is NOT what we meant?
Finally, I completely agree that fat phobia is about fat being "sinful". I think some of it comes from our Puritanical roots that still have a stranglehold on us. We see overweight people at gluttonous, which is a "sin".
And yeah, there's a difference between equality and equity.
this is fun but had no reason to be this long
D'Angelo you're literally so beautiful omg.
I moved from the USA to Austria mid 2023. We moved for many reasons, but the environment and lifestyle differences are extremely apparent. The availability of public transportation and walkability of many cities not only allows children, elderly folks, and people with mobility issues easier access to travel – it also allows for a much more active lifestyle. I don't drive 15 minutes to the grocery store to buy bulk foods that last us 2 weeks anymore; now we walk 5 minutes to the store every few days to stock up on a few meals. Cities are laid out with things like groceries, doctors and pharmacies, childcare, etc. so that everyone has easy access to them regardless of where they live. We don't have a car, we walk or take the tram/bus. I walk to my primary doctor, my OBGYN, my psych, my dentist, my hair stylist, my yoga class…
My point being: factors like this make a huge difference. Obviously there are so many more factors than these, but if the USA wasn't so car-centric with poor city planning and gentrification of poorer areas, the difference would be noticeable.
off topic but you look really pretty in this video
Fun fact: my mom, who MEDICALLY REQUIRES Ozempic literally can’t have it and IF she’s able to get it, it’s only from samples her doctor is able to give her, all because a bunch of lazy assholes wanna get skinny. Like you’re for real taking it from people who NEED it. She just can’t take it, because it’s rarely in stock. So her doctor will occasionally get in pharmaceutical samples and he will basically hoard those for her. That’s the only way she and others who TRULY need it get it.
One obese person to the next… get off yah ass, work out, and eat better. Stop taking medicine from people who NEED IT because you’re lazy and fat.
D’Angelo I like your content but there’s quite a bit of misinformation here. For example, you say “medications are tested on sick people who need them so we don’t know what they do to healthy people.” That’s false. There are 4 phases of clinical trials for the FDA, and the very first, Phase 1, is in healthy volunteers. Many of these trials are done on college campuses that have a Phase I Center where students receive a stipend to try the investigational substance. The substance has already passed preclinical testing in animals, so this phase is to prove SAFETY of the drug. Then, later phases of trials provide more safety data and also prove EFFICACY in treating a certain medical condition. If the drug is effective per Phase 3 data, the sponsor (company) files to register the drug and get approval from the FDA for a specific indication.
By no means am I saying these drugs should be used off-label for people who aren’t obese, but you’re also not helping by making people afraid of pharmaceuticals that have been extensively tested for safety.
The reason medicines are so expensive is because of the tremendous cost of clinical trials. I’ve worked on medicines that cost nearly $1B and over a decade to get approval before we could sell them. And remember, most investigational substances never make it to market. Not ever new medicine works. So when 1 does, its safety & efficacy are proven. I encourage you to read the labels (available online) to learn more about the research done on these drugs
🤦♀️ Chelsea Handler sounds absurd. You can’t be injecting yourself & “not know you’re on it.” Lady, just admit you wanted to be slim
If I’m happy-ish and healthy. I couldn’t care what my body looks like.
My fiancé is being told to loose weight for health reasons. And I’m in full support of that. We eat better meals at better times of day. We’ve portioned out snacks each day to try and limit over eating (we work from home so snacking is a massive issue) and go on walks every day. He’s started going to the gym and honestly we already feel better for it
it's kinda sad because i've had an ED for so long and this trend makes me want to buy it for weight loss purposes (i won't do it my brain is just acting up)
Ohhh my gwwwaaaad he looks so good m definitely trying that look.
i was forced into a weight loss program held by my highschool "inspired by" the biggest loser were we were pitted against each other to see who will lose the most weight every month. it gave me an ED
Im a pharmacist and you did an excellent job, D'Angelo. Bravo!!
All i want to point out is that i have to hunt pharmaces for ozempic and im useing it for diabetes. It sucks.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Minor point…her statement on obesity being a disease is valid. But it refers more so to morbid obesity. People who are supersized tend to have a lifelong association with obesity and that is similar to addiction. Just as addicts are classed as lifelong battles so is obesity. It’s a mental disorder just like anorexia.
I’m a diabetic struggling o stay steady on my meds because of the shortages. And the side effects of all my diabetes meds SUCK. Puking, diarrhea, etc. like if I didnt have to take it, I wouldn’t.
