[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I agree OP.  They should be available for every woman in peri-menopause. I still enjoy eating but I don't constantly think about it all day long. [/quote]

No, the really unpopular opinion is that so many excuses here are just about lack of discipline and it’s very sad for our population that you need pharmaceuticals rather than implementing and maintaining good habits

You think saying everyone should get weight loss drugs is unpopular? Look around, it’s an echo chamber.[/quote]
I am very confident when I say that I was doing everything right in terms of exercising and tracking calories, and was still gaining weight in peri-menopause.  It was not lack of good habits.  [/quote]

Are you eating and exercising the same amount as before?[/quote]

And to be clear, I am extremely skeptical that you are eating as much on this drug as you were off it. The whole point of this drug slows down your digestion and suppresses hunger.[/quote]

It does more than that. It also affects insulin resistance, which is a big reason why fat is stored on the body. It's not just an appetite suppressant. [/quote]

Yes, that’s why they are indicated for people with actual metabolic risk, not for people who are upset about vanity pounds.[/quote]

I had to point that out because people seem pretty uninformed about the science of GLP1s. They think it's just an appetite suppressant. [/quote]
