As a diabetic, I am currently having problems finding my prescrobed Ozempic for my medical treatment as it has a nationwide shortage. Some doctors using it off label to treat for weight loss has caused the drug to be very short and supply.

...but the user can take larger doses.

Of course. My use is an experiment through the VA. They control my refills closely. I'm also told that I can't stock up because too many people are using this stuff off label for weight loss. No doubt it is being abused, that's what people do.

How about the “doctor” that prescribed a diabetes med for a woman with no diabetes?

Notice how the ads mention weight loss as a “side-effect” and then tell you it may not be expected......and, “Ask your doctor is this 💩 is right for you...”

(HFCS is very harmful)

It’s definitely worse than sugar soda as near as I can tell

That’s what I’m saying. It is not a traditional “vaccine”.

(sugar free)

I can’t stand the taste of sugar free anything.

Not even gum. As far as sucralose, stevia, and such.

HFCS is the only thing I can stand.

Darn it.

“Just don’t eat carbs or sugar and you’ll lose it. Lazy.”


Exactly! When my husband was diagnosed with diabetes, I totally changed our menus and cut out the sweets in the house. All meals were low-carb. Although neither of us were obese, we both started losing weight.

I could have benefited from losing 20 pounds, but I lost too much. I lost 30 pounds in the first year and then an additional fifteen pounds after that. Earlier this year, my doctor told me to gain ten pounds before I returned for my next check-up. I’m working on it and hope the meal today will add a couple pounds. LOL!

(gain ten pounds)

I did that last semester when I returned to college several decades ago.

I’d tell you how to gain weight but you’ll likely overshoot as I did, LOL 🤣

I’m using the very successful “evening bowl of ice cream” method. I just keep the ice cream hidden from hubby.

Trish was on Ozempic before switching to Saxenda ...

So was it the Ozempic or the Saxenda that she was on when she died?
