I actually know someone who used it in conjunction with a strict diet. She didn't need to lose a lot, but lost 30 lbs (roughly 20% body weight) in like 4 months.
While getting fatter and fatter and fatter.We are getting closer to living like the Jetsons. A pill for everything.
That’s great for her if she hit her weight loss goal, now all she does is a maintenance dose and injected every two weeks and she’s good. That will be a huge head start for her and making better eating choices from there on out. Congrats to her 🍺I actually know someone who used it in conjunction with a strict diet.

All you haters of the medication and its indications can watch 60 Minutes that’s on now. They are doing a segment on the outcomes so you can make your own decision 🍺
Btw, the anti-obesity drug segment followed the segment where some kitchen table scientists claimed we will FACE AN EXTINCTION LEVEL EVENT NOT SEEN SINCE THE DINOSAURS IN THE NEXT 20 YEARS.
You know those tabloids they use to have at the checkouts back before THE MAN made us check and bag our own groceries…BAT BOY LIVES, and whatnot. 60 minutes is the modern version of that.
60 Minutes trotted effing Paul Erlich out of mothballs last night ffs.I mean that’s all “news” is anymore. With the internet and Twitter and all that shit no one will watch anything unless it’s sensational. Then it was followed up by some dipshit doctor saying obesity is an uncontrollable disease and then calling ALL OTHER DOCTORS IDIOTS for not knowing that 😂. Would anyone be surprised if Lilly paid 60 mins and that dipshit doctor 100k to run that segment?
Congrats BSC ! That’s awesome man and enjoy the retirement 🍺I’ve enjoyed this thread. Looked into these medications several months ago for my type 2 diabetes, but was too expensive. Decided to focus on diet and exercise (heavy weight training and aerobic). I drink lots of water which tricks my stomach into thinking it’s full. Lost 34 pounds and my blood sugar has improved tremendously. I use the Lose-it app to track my calories and exercise which keeps me accountable. 20 more pounds to go and I should be there by April.
I don’t blame anyone for using the meds to lose weight. Some folks don’t have time for exercise and meal planning. I’m retired and this is my new hobby.
Literally EVERYONE has time for exercise unless they think they’d rather work more and die miserable and obese. It’s all about priorities, but no one can tell me they’re not burning up 30 mins a day watching tv or sleeping in a bit longer or hitting happy hour or whatever it may be.I’ve enjoyed this thread.

It was more the 800 calories a day than the med.Losing 20% of your body mass in 4 months is extremely healthy. Look forward to the impending Netflix documentary and lawsuits in 15 years from this drug killing millions from acute renal failure that was covered up by them because it was such a cash cow. How long have the studies for this dramatic weight loss (and not wanting to eat for 48 hours at a time apparently) been going on?
Genetics do a play a large role. Is obesity solely genetic? No. But it is a big factor, as are some other big factors ones you can control. You can easily have 2 people eat the exact same things, get the same amount of sleep, and do the same exercise, and have a significant weight difference. But fine, be an a** and ignore the facts.It’s official. The first 3 minutes are about how being overweight is because of your brain and it’s not something you can control. 🙄 Obesity is genetics. I mean no one is to blame for anything anymore, it’s incredible.
She did great and happy for her JW 🍺It was more the 800 calories a day than the med.
It's probably an anomaly but my grandmother lived to be 89 and was obese. She also smoked for years. Wonder if she would have made it to 100+ if she lived healthier?My neighbor is 75 and weighs 500 pounds
Dibs on selling to Ryan Lemond.Would be interested if you can find a way to make this a multi level marketing opportunity.

While like in every aspect of life, there are unfortunately some people in Pharma like you say; and those exceptions are the ones we all hear about. The vast majority of those in Pharma or "big Pharma" as you say, are good people trying to do good things. But you seem to negative and cynical and just too much a plain jerk to see that.The woman in that 60 Minutes interview is a liar, and should have her medical license revoked. Remember, these Big Pharma people are the same criminals who kill 100,000 Americans per year, turned us into a nation of heroin addicts, and got filthy f'ing rich teaching us that pain is the 5th vital sign.
It's certainly true that people are more likely to be obese if their parents are obese, just like you're more likely to be poor or uneducated if your parents are, but that's not due to your genetic makeup. How would this woman explain that 50% of black americans are obese, but 0% of africans are obese? Has the american human body evolved that much in the past 150 years that would cause this? Of course not.
Who pi$$ed in your cheerios? Or are you and PTI intimate, and you trying to protect him? So sweet.There's a billion percent chance JonathanW has his tee ball participation trophy on display in his beige cubicle.
Define significant and I want you to provide proof of your claim.
Also to add to that - my sister is a dietician at the NIH and works exclusively with young children that are obese and have developed diabetes. Like 15 years ago this kid always came in with a McD’s breakfast and the movie “supersize me” came out about how awful McDonald’s is. Anyway she gave him a tape of it to watch with his family and he came back the next day and my sister asked him what he thought.
He said “Oh man we couldn’t believe it - no McDonalds for me anymore!” She went great, so what was for breakfast today? He proudly said “They took me to Burger King!” 😂 True story and one I find hilarious
Yes, bigot.Or are you and PTI intimate, and you trying to protect him? So sweet.
TWhile there may be value in some medications, the true solution to almost any disease is actually rather simple....
- diet
- exercise
- sleep
- stress reduction
- hydration
- etc
Being healthy improves all health outcomes, while being obese makes them all worse. This isn’t a controversial take at all.
If (god forbid) you got a cancer diagnosis, would you feel more positive about your outlook if you weighed 400 pounds, or if you were fit and lean and healthy?
That's weird. I replied to your "define significant..." line. And the next 2 paragraphs appear, but don't show in your message above. Hmm.
Anyway, I would define significant as say 20 lbs, or 10% bodyweight, or BMI difference of 5.
And as soon as I win the lottery I will invest the money to prove that point.
As for your McD/supersize-me/BK story, that is both funny and sad.
That's an entirely different claim from what you wrote previously. I guess it's wise of you to backtrack.
