OK so this is the real answer to OP's question.

The drug is for people who need it. People who have chronic obesity. For those of us who have taken it and have lost weight, it is a life saving drug. All of these side effects that everyone is harping on do not matter when you are losing enough weight to save your life or extend it down the road. If someone asked the same question about why someone doesn't take blood pressure medicine then the answers wouldn't all be about the side effects. (And yes it's a similar thing - obesity is a disease, and if you don't understand that you probably don't suffer from it).

I don't really care if people are using it to microdose or whatever. But it is so unhelpful for people who don't even have real weight to lose to get online and spread all sorts of negative comments and misinformation about a drug they don't need and aren't even taking.

💯. I think anyone asking questions about using a GLP-1 for vanity weight loss should be asking this question on the beauty and fashion forum, and the rest of us should be asking and answering questions on the medical forum. It's a shame that there are so MANY vanity weight people on here that Jeff had to move real medical questions to this random forum about weight loss. Obesity is a real medical condition. Don't discount that.[/quote]
