Back in the 90s developers were working on a drug for heart health. When they were testing it on people, it kinda worked, but it had a strange side effect. It gave male patients a raging boner. Thus Viagra was born. It still works for the heart too, except nobody is using it for that purpose. Similarly, the diabetes drug Ozempic has a unexpected side effect, namely it causes a dramatic weight loss!! Its off-label usage got so bad that supply is very short right now and diabetic patents can't get their subscription filled. So forget about diet and not eating your favorite cake or steak, the American drug industry has an answer to your prayers, another magic pill! What do you need for a happy life? Viagra and Ozempic and you are good until you kick the bucket... https://www.cbsnews.com/news/ozempic-type-2-diabetes-drug-weight-loss-supply-shortage/ Even my favorite asshole, Elon is using it. If it is good for the richest man, you bet it is good for us!
Pretty dramatic results: "Sure, I have a protein drink in the morning, throughout the day I will have yogurt, a protein bar, maybe some pretzels. Dinner I eat pretty much anything, just not much of it. I haven't restricted anything. My brain all of a sudden has hunger/fullness cues, which I never had before. As for calories, I honestly have no idea, I never counted. I still have fast food once in a while, but I get less food (small instead of large), and I'm satisfied. I still have a slice of pizza or an ice cream, etc, but now my brain tells me when to stop, it's the strangest thing."
I remember 200-500lb people losing weight fast in the 1990s. I hated how they claimed they were “fasting, controlled dieting or working out more”. Total BS since most never stepped in a gym unless it was to have a smoothie or jacuzzi! They lied to me, it was the phentermine and topamax cocktail!. Locally the meth cook does one hell of a good job keeping the weight down, the tweakers here are very fit!
Unfortunately, the skin cannot be shrunk. If you have say 3 sq meters of skin, you will still have 3 sq meters of skin after weight reduction.
Maybe it is because the methheads have no teeth, so they cannot masticate protien-rich foods like meat, thus the weight-loss? Just a guess, heh
But beware of "Ozempic Face": https://www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/experts-detail-infamous-ozempic-face-133037532.html
Yeah, they don’t eat much. Yesterday I had a twenty something(She looked a distressed 40) ask for food money. Not lying, I walked in Subway with her and let her order and she ate it! Shocking, because I’ve been conned many times buying food for them and they return it for cash. I hope this break’s my Buzzard luck.
Ozempic is not made for weight loss, it is just a benefit that happens for diabetic patients taking it....which makes me think all those people abusing it for weight loss are doing some serious damage somewhere internally that will surface sooner or later...
Here is another drug (Tirzepatide) with weight loss side effects: https://www.cnn.com/2023/04/27/health/mounjaro-weight-loss-tirzepatide-eli-lilly/index.html " the injectable drug tirzepatide helps people with diabetes lose weight as well as control their blood sugar, according to the drug’s manufacturer, Eli Lilly and Company. In a new study, more than 900 adults with obesity and diabetes took the drug for a year and five months, and those on the highest dose lost an average of 34 pounds, or nearly 16% of their starting weight. It also helped people reduce their blood sugar, "
