[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A lot!   Lagree, light botox, high quality medical grade skin care, low dose semaglutide, HRT.  I look great (I get lots of compliments on my skin, and my BMI is 19), but it's expensive and time-consuming.  Haters are going to hate on here.[/quote]

Your BMI is 19!  And you are on a semaglutide?  WTH.  Do you not care about your health and bone density? [/quote]

19 is a healthy BMI. It's absolutely a fine, healthy weight. Maybe it would be too thin for you personally given your own bone structure, musculature, etc but let's not project your own biases on PP.[/quote]

18 is considered underweight.  In what world it is appropriate for a middle aged perimenopausal woman with a BMI of 19 to be on weight loss injections? What Dr would even write for this? I’m assuming she gets it from some online “doctor” [/quote]

Do you realize that some people continue on the drug for maintenance and also to control A1C (pre-diabetes)? GLP-1s regulate blood sugar. [/quote]

No, it is not approved to be prescribed for people with a BMI of 19 because of “insulin resistance” which is what this poster claims.  You have to be overweight and with another comorbidity to get a prescription- at least that is if you are actually be treated by a real doctor.  I hope this disordered poster is paying out of pocket for this plus her 6 mon dexa scans- and not leeching off the rest of insurance payers

My BMI started at 40 and A1C at 6.5. I was put on a GLP-1 years ago. BMI is now 21, A1C 5 and doctor keeps me on it. Do you have some idea of the person's history with the BMI of 19? Or are you assuming they were prescribed a GLP-1 with a starting BMI of 19? That seems really unusual. Plus somewhere earlier the BMI 19 poster said that they microdose "for maintenance" which suggests they started at a higher BMI.[/quote]

I’m assuming she started with a BMI of 21 because she posts about it ALL THE TIME.[/quote]

+1 got it from a med spa, now online. No real doctor involved in the process.[/quote]
