“old-timey sailors’ disease” Lingua Emoji-a
I know folks that take them. They are totally oblivious to any Box Warnings. One day, they will wake up sick. It’s crazy.
Some of the people who overdo this drug look like zombies with sunken cheeks
Why don’t these people just take a 0 calorie multivitamin pill?
I’m on Mounjaro and I have supplemented with an assortment of fruits and regular walking.
I am on Ozempic for my diabetes. I have no clue about weight watch, but it is a medication and anyone using it should realize that it is not magic.... with any meds you have to ask do the risks outweigh the benefits.
Isn’t this one of the Trump freebies drugs. on TrumpRX?
They should only have enough to reduce 500-1,000 calories a day.
These people aren’t eating healthy food or supplements of any sort, or they take so much they haven’t eaten in a long while and somehow didn’t succumb to electrolyte imbalance, first.
Bizarre.
I find it revealing that some people (including a bunch here on FR) didn’t get their panties in a twist about Ozempic users when it was only used for diabetes. Once people started using it for weight loss, the fat cops came out of the woodwork and started talking crap about anyone using it.
I have been on Ozempic since shortly after it came out. For A1C control. It works, it has worked for years now, and I have had no ill effects from it.
Just gonna have to drink gin and tonics heavy on the lime to make up for their lack of important vitamins.
Who in tarnation would ever assume that a reduction in body weight is an indication of being well-nourished?!

“A reduction in body weight does not automatically mean the person is well-nourished or healthy.”
This statement also has been many people’s, including my own, view the BMI is not a great measurement for determining health. A simple height/weight ratio number doesnt give an accurate enough measure of most peoples health. It doesnt take into account heavily muscled people. It cant determine healthy overweight (fat people who are exercising and getting in better shape) from unhealthy overweight people, doing nothing healthy. It cant determine healthy acceptable bmi numbers from unhealthy ones, a person can have an acceptable bmi but be unhealthy and very sick, in fact. It cznt determine skinny healthy from unhealthy skinny either. It rrally was just a way for,insurance companies to overnight, raise rates on tens of millions of people juzt because a new ratio deemed them in one day to now be overweight or obese.
Pirates stereotypically also suffered from poor hygiene (lice, scabies, etc.) and a variety of venereal diseases - so let's not jump to conclusions!
