We have an obesity epidemic in the U.S. Yes, many people have health or genetic disposition to heavier weight, but many of us also eat the American diet of processed, fast food, sugar, etc.
If she helps get the message to use these drugs with a healthier lifestyle reset maybe will help. |
| She went on weight loss meds like everyone else. She admitted it. |
She actually does that in conjunction with the Weight Watchers program. |
| Why the debate she has admitted she used meds! |
| So happy Oprah is telling the world about her diabetes meds. Meanwhile I’m a diabetic who hasn’t been able to get my 2mg dosage since September. Every month I have to call around to 30-40 pharmacies trying to scrape together 1mg doses and can only take half my prescribed meds. And no I’m not overweight, I'm type 1.5 diabetic (type 1 adult onset) for anyone accusing me of being fat and that diabetes was a lifestyle choice. I need drugs like ozempic to lower my blood sugar, until I need insulin. Please don’t tell me there’s lots of other diabetes meds, because they don’t work for me like ozempic or Mounjaro, which are now always out of stock due to selfish people looking to lose vanity weight. |
Nor sure who you are talking about but Oprah was obese for a great portion of her life. She has tried many different times to lose weight and keep it off. If someone with her resources can't be successful without those drugs that should tell you something. Also, I hate when diabetics like you come on here preaching how they are more deserving to have this drug than people who are fighting obesity. I was on it and lost 70 lbs. The doctor put me on it hoping to avoid heat issues and it worked. You don't deserve to treat your diabetes any more than I do to treat my heart issues. GEt over yourself. |
I think Oprah uses a compounded version. She's not using Ozempic literally (I think). Her company, Weight Watchers, is apparently going to add it as an upgrade option to the subscription program (got that online so not sure if its accurate or not). The compounded version NOT Ozempic. |
She is actually using it along with Weight Watchers and exercise. It's a multi prong approach. |
I have done the same and not sure how anyone would lose weight even on Ozempic without eating better and exercising. You still have to do the work. The meds just make it possible. |
I always hated that woman. Everything about her is fake, fake, and fake. |
Well not everyone is naturally beautiful like you, darling.

When this thread started she had not admitted it yet. She was still pretending it was all WW. |
#1 how do you know she doesn't have diabetes? #2 Wegogy, now Zepbound are approved for obesity. People just use the term Ozempic, doesn't mean that's the actual drug being used. I'm on 2.4 Wegovy. There is no issue getting 1.7 and 2.4 Wegovy these days. |
She admitted to using weight loss medication |
My sis is on Ozempic and I think it is true. She basically wants no food. Some days the most she'll manage to consume is a couple of protein drinks throughout the day along with water. She doesn't want food so she never eats food so she loses weight. That's great and all, but what's going to happen when she goes off it? She'll have an appetite again and she'll eat again and she'll gain again. There's nothing in the Ozempic regiment that treats any of the underlying issues people have with food. |
