Is taking Ozempic or Wegovy cheating (Assuming you're not insulin resistant or suffer from hormonal issues)?

Someone I know is currently taking Ozempic and he's struggled with weight gain his entire life. I suspect he will gain it all back once the cheat codes are turned off.

I think those medications are intended for people with serious obesity. So if your friend is dangerously overweight then it’s probably beneficial.

Dude's between overweight and obese. Definitely not obese to the point where he can't even jog.

Research shows that the majority of people will gain the weight back after stopping medication. Patients of these meds are basically "fat people on hold" unless they take this shit for life.

From what I heard, Ozempic can be beneficial if, while taking it, you also implement lifestyle changes that you will continue once the meds are off. If you don't then you'll just go right back to being a fatty boom-batty.

I heard ozempic costs 1,000s of $ per month too which would be a lot to spend on something if you are just looking for an easy way out/ aren't fully commited

Actually they're intended for diabetics.

That's the perfect drug for an investor. This would be like giving all Muricans kevlar fat rolls so they can keep using guns on each other.

That said, I also hear that Ozzy also makes you crap your pants and lose interest in eating and drinking. Basically turning the fun person at a party into an anorexic beyootch you want to ditch under a sewer cover.


:lol:

anyone know where this is from?
TikTok?

Yeah, probably a better long term solution to do something else.

pls dicuss

I want make do this, too.
I normally use ScriptSafe on Chrome, for example. Not the most popular JavaScript blocker, but I've developed a routine with it over the years.

From a professional standpoint, it allows me to see and intercept any Javascript trying to do third-party funny business with cookies, tracking, etc. But from a personal perspective, it allows me to do de-facto custom ad and media blocking beyond what you get out of the box with a basic ad blocker plug-in.

Though you often have to pause it sometimes for things like buying stuff at checkout sites with credit cards, because a lot of specialized payment flows and the like will get rejected.
