[quote=Anonymous]I’m one of those people who could lose 15 pounds. I’m not obese and I don’t have other health problems so I would probably have to pay out of pocket. That’s one issue. Paying for 3 or 6 months or even a year isn’t a problem, but from what I understand, this has to be maintained forever. When you stop taking it, you regain the weight. Committing to a lifetime on this drug feels ominous. Also, I don’t like shots. I would rather just go on a diet than get shots for a few months, let alone forever. I also worry about the long term side effects, but that’s more tangential to the other concerns. Again, I’m only 15 pounds overweight so my metabolism isn’t horrible. I would definitely feel differently if I was morbidly obese. But to inject myself with ozempic feels like tempting fate. What if I take it for a year, lose the weight, then gain 20 pounds (or more!) as soon as I quit? It’s just not worth it. [/quote]
