My next door neighbor was looking rather poorly and was acting like she was very unwell.

She had been taking Ozempic and it caused her blood pressure to go dangerously high. She went to the hospital several times.

She discontinued use and now she is fine.

She looked good for a 56-year-old.

All she needed was to go on a diet and a fitness plan if she wanted to get skinny. But that requires work. And time.

Sad. Any family would rather have a live chubby mom, than a dead skinny mom. Family loves you just the way you are, unconditionally.

Our granddaughter who’s an RN was talking about this last night. Her dad has full- blown diabetes and uses it and she was talking about people using this for other than what it was intended and this lady is an example of it.......so sad

Yep. She discovered the benefits of fasting. She rarely takes a bite.

Sounds like a solid plan. I largely endorse natural/paleo style nutrition.
I add in steel cut Irish Oatmeal and rice as well.

I’m very active and use the fuel.

Your mom was smart about the soda. :)

You could have a sugar free Monster, but that’s probably way worse somehow.

Remember coffee is just coffee, not some Starbucks orange mocha Frappuccino…

“Very active”

We’ve got a half-acre lot with four good size copses of conifers and deciduous trees as well as lots of shrubs and bushes. “Active” doesn’t begin to describe my fall cleanup and the race to get it done before the snow flies. I’ve taken close to 3,000 bags of debris to the dump so far (the dump tells me the weight of what I delivered to them). Slinging that 28 pound backpack blower is a chore as is the final raking, pruning, and bagging. Still going strong at 72 (but a condo is looking more and more attractive!)

Semaglutide is approved by the FDA for use alongside modified diet and exercise to help lower blood sugar and reduce risk of cardiac events in patients with type 2 diabetes, but it has also become a trendy weight-loss drug.

I remember when Speed was the trendy weight loss drug. People swore by it.

One would think…with her fortune, she could have hired a chef to cook tasty, low fat meals….period.
Hired a personal trainer, etc

It seems possible that her blood sugars...her A1C....was lowered to a dangerous level.

It was an injection, so the proper dosage was not understood by someone.
