[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. 
Reporting back.  My daughter (who is 18) started on Ozempic and in 6 weeks she's lost about 18 pounds. 
Her weight has dropped from 155 to 138.  Her clothing size from a 10 to a 6.  (She's 5'4")

She looks and feels fantastic.  She's now going on a maintenance phase and is being followed by her pediatrician.

This is a super active teen who was eating an incredibly clean diet and consistently gaining weight from ages 15-18.  She literally dropped 5 pounds in the first week.  No real diet changes as she was eating clean to begin with.  [/quote]

This is such a sad post. You have just opened the door yo-yo dieting. [/quote]

Very sad. And OP clearly has passed along her disotorted views about weight and how fat and unattractive she thought her daughter was and how weight loss is making her finally move towards being fantastic. Why stop now? I am sure the daughter can lose another 20 on the drugs and OP can praise for her becoming even more attractive. Maybe they can plan cosmetic surgeries and procdures to try and make her more attractive and fastastic too. [/quote]

At 5'4 "and 140 lbs, unless she's lifting and muscular, she probably has well over 30% body fat, which means she probably carries around too much visceral fat, which is objectively a big health risk.  At 18, a healthy girl has around 15-20% body fat. [/quote]
