[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Im on Ozempic and this is truly the first time in my life I havent been controlled by food. I have always thought about food all of the time. What Im eating next, when Im eating. What I can eat to meet whatever calorie goal Im shooting for. I have been binging since elementary school. There was never a feeling of “full”. Diet pills of diff kinds would keep me from eating when I wanted to lose weight, but the obsession w food was always there.

But now, that noise is all gone. I can look at food as more of a bystander vs an addict and make healthy decisions. I can eat a normal amount and get full. I can (for example) eat one piece of candy vs the whole bag.

It is seriously life-changing and I envy those of you have never had a problem with food, and this think fat people just need to have willpower/not eat too much.[/quote]

This. Also, for a lot of people, like me, you can't just eat whatever you want. I didn't start losing weight on Ozempic until I reduced carbs and sugar. It basically makes dieting easier. [/quote]
