Kristen bell.

I’m I’m honest I do sort of judge very thin people who use it to get tinier. But more I’m just really curious how everyone is handling the side effects, nausea etc… or is it really not that bad ?

Not sure about Kristen Bell, but definitely Michelle O. She has a completely different body now. I hate to say it, but she does really look great.

She always worked out so being thin definitely shows off her muscle tone.

Plenty of people talking about this on the health thread, and one’s doctor is a really good source of information about medical issues, in my experience. I don’t think this thread was started out of benign curiosity regarding health care information. It stems from wanting to shame people who have sought help with weight loss, as a logical outgrowth of general fat shaming.

DP and there is a lot of that in semaglutide discussions, obviously. But I think it's kind of silly to dismiss every discussion as fat shaming. Especially with celebrities, there's a "don't pee on my leg and tell me it's raining" reaction - when everybody on screen loses 4 BMI points in 8 months the very year that Ozempic hits the shelves, the denials are obnoxious.

I am on Wegovy. It's magical and wonderful and life changing. I don't necessarily want to tell anyone that I'm getting "help" with my weight loss but I still look askance at my sister, who is on Mounjaro, posting to Facebook that she's found the miracle way to lose weight and it's some electric shock workout BS, all to throw people off the scent. Most people don't like being lied to, and even less when the lie assumes they're complete simpletons who will believe anything.

Were you overweight before Wegovy? Or thin but just not at your ideal weight?

Obese in spite of being very active (multiple triathlons active). When I say that it's life changing I mean it. So I do have a bit of judgment around people taking it to lose 10 lbs but I also recognize that for celebrities 10 lbs can be the difference between getting a job and not. We all make our choices.

If you are fit enough to run marathons, what is Wegovy helping with? (Like you, I'm not judging, just curious about your goals.) Does insurance cover it as long as you're over certain weight?

Being active does not result in people losing weight, they have to eat less to starve the body to start using fat. That starvation level is hard during weight loss, even harder once you reach the goal weight. That is why rich people like Oprah lost and gained weight inspire of their vast resource, till GLT-1.

Unless they tell you, or have had drastically rapid weight loss, you can't know for sure, OP.

Right, more or less -- exercise will generally produce some weight loss, but it won't make a fat person thin.

By the same token, you can be fat and metabolically healthy, although I guess that was not the case for the marathoner

Mandy Moore. Just saw her instagram pics and she looks so sickly thin and you can see it in her face. Kind of sad because she always had a great in-shape body.

It's like expecting a lawyer not use online legal research, but instead to do it the "right way" by sitting a law library every night.

True. Hollywood has always been about the aesthetics. It's absolutely nuts what the Marvel actors endure. No chance they'll ever compete in the Olympics because they are so juiced. But I suspect the Ozempic trend for otherwise healthy and fit actors will be short lived. The look is usually drawn and withered. It's not a healthy, desirable look for people who do just fine with working out and diet. As this thread demonstrates, we can all tell when actors are on Ozempic. There's a haunted look to them. Ozempic may work for actors inclined toward obesity despite their efforts. But it's not a great look for people who are otherwise healthy. Channing Tatum for goodness sake does not need Ozempic.

He’s only 37 and has been relatively slim for much of his adult life. No reason to think he couldn’t/didn’t lose the weight without medication.

This. People lost weight without meds before and will continue to do so.

He was HUGE. He was definitely on oz.

I saw that too, and thought she looked terrible. I guess it's possible she just lost too much weight after having her baby.

I recently lost a bunch of weight in a relatively short amount of time and now I’m paranoid that people will think I got the shot

For those of you wanting to get into this boring topic, please move along to the new Diet forum and leave the juicy celebrity guessing to those of us here, please.

Michelle Obama????? Really?
Definitely Mindy Kaling and Jesse P

I disagree about Michelle O. She was never big and she’s lost weight since her mother (who she was very close to) passed. That’s not at all uncommon for depression related weight loss upon the death of a parent.
