[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You’re being ridiculous.

Tons of people maintain a normal weight.

Serena Williams is taking medication to lose weight because her husband invested in the company. She’s a paid spokesperson. [/quote]

I don't know anyone who maintains a normal weight without a GLP. [/quote]

That’s insane. Every single adult in my family is a normal weight. About half my neighbors are too — though I have no idea if they take medication or not. Almost all my friends are a normal weight. It’s really not hard.

I’m not on a glp-1 but this is so tone deaf. I’m a “normal weight” (5’4”, 130 lbs, work out 5-6 days/week and walk 30 min/day). BUT I need to eat a very restricted diet to stay at this weight. I find it a daily challenge and would say that food brings me little pleasure because I never eat what I want.

I was thin (but always athletic) until age 40 or so, this metabolism change happened to me post having kids. It really opened my eyes to how naive I had been before that about it being “easy” to maintain my weight. [/quote]

Your borderline eating disorder does not mean everyone needs a GLP-1. As women she is is very natural to add some weight and it is not unhealthy. Research shows that a BMI just around the overweight zone (26-27) has the most longevity. If you believe that at 50 you have to have the same body as at 25 - that is the problem. That’s going to be hard to do a cause some mental distress.

Serena however may have actually medically needed the GLP-1 because of her cardiovascular history. [/quote]

Sure. The greatest female tennis player of all time "needed" the GLP1 because of a cardiovascular history. That is an insane assumption.[/quote]

Why? She has had multiple life threatening blood clots. [/quote]
