My insurance will stop covering it in 2026 (except for diabetics). Without insurance, it is $1300/month. I am so nervous. Anyone else in this boat and have a plan?

Perhaps it is now time to stop? Seems the mediation has worked and now it is time for you to put in the work and keep up the healthy lifestyle.

OP has been putting in the work, obviously.

Do you think these medications work without diet and exercise? If that's what you think, you are ignorant.

I did great on Zepbound but my insurance stopped covering it last month. I was paying $400 copay. I switched to Wegovy and $0 copay. Maybe your insurance will cover a different drug instead too.

As someone who has been on it for quite a while, it does. But people still shouldn’t be asses.

That's not affordable for a vast # of people who rely on the med.

🤷‍♀️. Then I guess you’ll get fat again

+1 or pay out of pocket.
