It costs a fortune but he will be much healthier and happier when he loses 25-30 pounds.


and you will have lost "just" 9 pounds. But your 9 pounds are going to stay off, and you're going to be healthier because you changed your lifestyle. He's going to be stuck taking wegovy and when he stops, he's gaining it all back.

i'd tell you to consider yourself lucky and entitled to some smugness, but he's going to be a b**ch when he regains the weight.


Nearly all people who lose weight through changes in diet and exercise still gain the weight back. It’s not like this is unique to Wegovy.


Nearly is less than "all".

It’s not “all” for Wegovy either.

Move on, you've got nothing valid to say.

Husband who usually overeats, over drinks, never works out, and watches a movie a night while she does the kid stuff, went to an urgimed doctor and out of pocket got on Zepbound.

He lost 40-50 pounds in six months and $6,000 not covered. Looks odd and loose skin, but got so cocky he has moved out and is apparently filing for divorce.

She said no lawyer letter or paperwork has come; it’s apparently such a half baked idea and mid life crisis he hasn’t looked in to anything.

Her main concern is how tough shuttling around will be on their older kid with adhd and high functioning autism.


Good for him.

Otherwise, he can find a pharmacy that will compound the medication at a couple hundred $. It requires a lifestyle change and I’d take him up on it.


What lifestyle change? Pretending they're cardiovascularly fit and self-disciplined eating healthy foods in the right portions?

Does it also create muscle tone, heart health, and well oxygenated blood?

Seems like an increasingly pricey shortcut to eventually looking skinny fat or normal weights.


I love it when skinny people come on here and get all jealous that their fat friends are losing weight.


You must be responding to the wrong post.

The PPP was talking about muscle tone, nutrition, and cardiovascular health.

Is there an injectable for that too!?!


They responded to the correct post. DP

Actually, what they said was quite valid. Not pp.

Yeah! Go mid life crises!

Too bad for their asd kid, 50/50 doesn’t work so hot for special needs kids.

So many spouses threatened by their SO working at getting healthy. Such a bad attitude and vibe. So much jealousy and resentment. I actually hope these folks going on Wegovy lose significantly more than the weight they set out to lose -- like an additional *insert amount spouse weighs*.

Yeah, well the DW should have thought of that before driving him to leave with their lack of support and contemptuous attitude. Divorce isn't a side effect of Wegovy.

My wife told me to stop telling her about my weight loss because it makes her feel bad that she’s not working as hard as me (after initially losing weight she has gained). It’s not something I feel comfortable talking about so I guess I’m on my own with this.

Ok I skipped to the end - why doesn’t he treat ADHD? Stimulants reduce appetite too.

He probably doesn’t accept his actual symptoms or diagnosis.

WTF r u responding too?
The guy lost weight via injectables, got overconfident and blew up his marriage himself.
Good riddance, who needs someone with those selfish values and character traits.
