[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Should I try ozempic or just restrict calories? I am 5’7” and 148lbs. I would prefer to be 135ish. If I could get back to my wedding weight of 125 that would be even better but I am not sure that is feasible.

I would be fine restricting to around 1000 calories a day. [u]Would that do the trick?[/u][b] Or do I need medication? [/quote]

This is your problem. There is no trick. There is consistent work and eating low calorie dense high quality foods. But, it is a pain in the ass, and people do not generally have the discipline for that. So, here we are. [/quote]

Op - would I be able to get something like ozempic or stepbound if I even wanted to? I don’t in general eat a ton but have had a lot of babies in a short period of time and just can’t lose the last 10-15 pounds. I gain 50-60 pounds each pregnancy and have 9+ pound babies. No diabetes. [/quote]

No, no reputable health provider will prescribe with your stats. You are at a healthy weight, that you, ideally, want to lose 10-15lbs is just a preference. So, no, it’s highly doubtful that you’d get it. Also, I’m on these meds and they don’t make you miraculously lose weight. You have to do the work. You need to eat more protein (minimum 1g/kg of weight per day) eat 4-5 servings of fruit/veggies a day, drink lots of water, exercise etc. [/quote]
