[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our insurance covered after a pre auth but can’t find a damn pharmacy that has it.[/quote]

Eat less exercise more [/quote]
This is for my DH. I’m fit thanks. [b]If your tip worked for everyone, these medications wouldn’t be so popular.[/b] And it doesn’t make sense (well if the point of our health care system weren’t profit) why insurances wouldn’t cover these medication that might help other costs associated with obesity in the future.

Stupid question:
If these medicines just turn off the food buzz in your head, then that means that the obese people weren't truly eating less all the time? Now we don't want to eat?
There were so many stories of folks really cutting the calories and the weight stayed on because they had body types that even with fewer calories their weight did not drop. But now it does? Does Wegovy do something besides have you eat less?[/quote]

Yes. It slows down food passing through your digestive system and acts somehow that I don’t understand because not a STEM person, on your metabolism by boosting insulin production. Zepbound adds a hormone that increases the metabolism of fat.  Plus, don’t discount the value of turning off food noise. [/quote]

Wow, you make it sound so, so safe. [/quote]

Have you looked at health outcomes for obese people?[/quote]

Have you looked at health outcomes for people who start a drug that must be taken for life, and yet there are no long term studies available? [/quote]

Semaglutide has been in use, as Ozempyic, for nearly 20 years. I'm on Wegovy. There was a study released last summer that says that people on it have a 20% decrease in the risk for stroke, heart attack and heart disease. With my family history of stroke, and the fact that my formerly high cholesterol is now in normal range-the outcomes look pretty good from my end.[/quote]
