[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^ https://healthnews.com/news/ozempic-may-help-with-addiction/ DH may benefit from having the ozempic dose increased. Not sure why surgery is not covered if he is not only obese but diabetic? Perhaps appeal? Or try to change plans during open enrollment? [/quote] Or switch to Mournjaro. But that only fixes his outward appearance and health. Being overweight is not only damaging to the physical but even more to the mental. I lost over 150lbs on Ozempic and Mounjaro, but in my brain I still think AND feel that I'm 300lbs. I dress really well and buy expensive clothes but all of that doesn't make up for the shame I feel. My DH is extremely handsome and I was always thinking that folks were staring at me and wondering why would a guy like that want to be with me? I've had plastic surgery to address the extra skin and still I feel like people are still seeing a 300lb person. I am still depressed and sorrowful just like I was at 300lbs. It just doesn't let up. So, I give my sad story to say it's more that just weight. If your DH I'd willing, maybe talk to him about therapy. But I will also add [b]Mournjaro[/b] really works and if he's on Ozempic, he definitely needs to talk to his Dr to evaluate uping the dose. . [/quote] I have had great success with Mounjaro as well. One can also get a compound less expensive version called trizepatide. I had to pay out of pocket for Mounjaro b/c it was only covered for type two diabetes or pre diabetic people. I was morbidly obese but not pre diabetic so my insurance did not cover it. It is still going through FDA approval for weigh loss. I will say the medicine helped me with the 'food noise' and cravings. For me, losing the weight has helped with my confidence. I can now go exercise classes without feeling like the biggest women in the room. I do think there are mental factors at play as well they may not be immediately fixed. I still like to have a little weight on me b/c I don't want too much attention from men and I was never sexually abused. [/quote]
