+1 Are we in the same family? Most people just seem to nibble the crudite!

Not OP but you don’t eat in moderation on Ozempic. You just stop eating.

If that were the case people would be dead. Or have to go off it immediately.

I'm on it, and I did not "just stop eating"

So stop spreading misinformation.

I attended some Holiday parties and had some family over for Christmas. There was lots of delicious food and drink at everything, but so much of it went unconsumed because it seems like everyone is on one of those semaglutides meds. I don’t remember so much unconsumed foods in the past. It just takes the joy out of the celebration.

Yes, when my husband lost 50 pounds going from 245 to 190 or so. He skipped meals, everything looked unappealing, only drank coffee, fasted dinner through lunch the next day.

Not sure he’s getting the nutrition he needs and it’s turned into a vanity project now. He keeps taking them and looks like a 6’1” string bean. He looks in the mirror all the time. Bought some new clothes and a biz suit. He even thinks his dck got bigger.

I call BS on this. Everyone I know who takes Wegovy, including myself, can't stand coffee now.

Do you have any friends taking them? I do. They don't eat in moderation, for the most part, they pick at the food and eat miniscule amounts. Like a lhalf cup of soup and two grapes, then talk incessantly about how great their weight loss triumph has been. I'ts not much fun to be around. I will caveat that by saying I'm pretty certain all of them are doing it mostly for vanity, so that might impact the behaviour.

Yeah, sounds like this is attributable to the kind of people you choose to hang around with, not the semaglutides.

I am taking Wegovy and my Christmas dinner was a portion of beef tenderloin (didn't finish the entire thing), mashed potatoes, brussels sprouts, chocolate pudding, and a decorated sugar cookie. I also had a glass of wine. It was lovely.

I’m on moujarno. For dinner I had two pieces of good sour dough bread with butter, half a bowl of mussels, a few French fries and several bites of an ice box cake dessert. Plus two glasses of wine. I can’t understand why this would upset anyone

It wouldn't. Not a sane person.

Someone who regularly feels schadenfreude every time someone larger than they should be walks through the door? People like that with personality disorders? Well, they get upset.

I don’t like that he didn’t have the drive to try start working out and dieting first. He does not work out or diet now while in the shot. His clothes hang off of him and he is constantly pulling up his pants. He lost fat and muscle so his body shape is very… off looking. He looks older in the face. He does not eat right. He does not eat much at all. He gets excited because his first food consumption is at 6pm but that was a bowl of ice cream. He is tired all the time. He does not feed his body nutrients. My Christmas was not ruined by this shot but my attraction towards him, beyond just the looks, has diminished quite a bit.

Size 6 isn’t over weight. You sound like an ass, too bad there isn’t a shot for that.

Get divorced already. Someone else will appreciate him.

A particular kind of ass -- a trollish ass.

This!

OP sounds just like the raging alcoholics who get aggressive about people who don't want a drink "not being any fun."

So wait. I thought fat people were fat because they had “slow metabolism.” Do the shots prove that they just had to eat less after all?

Thin. BMI is 19

Ah, so you missed out on smirking and judging while all the fatties indulged in the food you put out, a favorite holiday activity.

NP. One thing Ozempic has laid bare for all to see is how much psychopathic pleasure many thin people took in mocking and feeling superior to fat people. It is truly shocking.
