Yes, body acceptance and all that other crap…blah blah blah, but the reality is, most people want to be thin. I really don’t see the problem with her or anyone else taking these meds, regardless of their reasons (financial incentives, vanity issues, health, etc.).
Or to make money by duping pathetic middle aged women into thinking that with $500/month, they too could look like Serena Williams on a bad day.

+1. These are incredible drugs (and I am glad you can use them) but the misuse is bonkers.
I suppose there was never really any way to prevent it though.
Actually, I can’t think of any other prescription medication that is so easy to obtain as glp-1’s. So whatever protocols are in place to ensure that people who don’t need high blood pressure meds, etc are in place seem to be missing with this one.
I’d have a harder time getting a pair of eyeglasses (which are necessary for those with impaired vision and essentially harmless for those who don’t) without an in person doctor visit than I would a glp-1.
No one wants blood pressure meds before a doctor tells them they have high blood pressure. Some people need them.
Glasses are highly personalized and customized. Glasses are cheap and easy to get, but you need a good fitting from an optometrist.
GLP is one size fits all, and cosmetic, so high demand and easy access, with pricing set by supply and demand.
