Why not just take the semi-g? It sounds a heck of a lot easier than diets.

Semi-g? What are you talking about?

If people stop eating so much, there will be less processed junk and hopefully a focus on better nutrition, and shipping excess food to places that need it. How is this a bad thing?

Wegovy should be given for free to everyone in the US. It should be something schools give out every morning like free school breakfast.

You made up this 'nickname'. Besides, it's semAglutide.

The fact is people on glp drugs still have to work at it.

They’re just not facing an uphill battle in making healthy choices.

But no one is lazy taking these drugs.

Ive lost 50 pounds on one of those medications. Not one person (other than my spouse and my doctor) has commented on my weight loss, nevermind asking specifics about it.

I've lost and still am losing a lot of weight through diet and in a way if people think I needed drugs it's sort of a compliment, like having known me fat for so many years, they'd be acknowledging that my weight is due to medical reasons outside of my control and needs to be corrected medically like any other health issue.

I know that's not how THEY would mean it though. It seems to me most people who constantly name drop these drugs in every weight loss thread mean it to be disparaging, so that would be kind of unfair and hurtful if they are assuming I took drugs which they imply makes me a bad person when in fact I didn't.

Best thing is when nobody mentions my weight at all. I wear baggier clothes among the most obnoxious family members hoping they won't notice.

If you want to saddle yourself to big pharma for the rest of your life, you should feel free to do so. But to refer to somebody as judgmental when they themselves were being judged with unwelcome comments demonstrates your own projections about controlling weight with these new drugs.

I think you're missing the point, crazy lady.

It's the active ingredient in Ozempic/Wegovy/etc.

No, it's not. Please stop trying to make "Semi-G" happen. It's inaccurate (there's no "semi") and makes you sound stupid and ignorant.

Good for you, OP! People that lose the weight on Ozempic are still spiritually fat.
