[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Yep. It’s a load of something that Rebel and Monday just ate healthy and lost so much weight. Definitely using the drug. I am about to start on it and I’ve told my family and friends. I KNOW I don’t eat so much more than everyone else and yet I am the fatty. So I am thrilled that there is a drug that will take dieting out of the “self control” column and put it into the “biology” column. I also have high cholesterol and have my entire life (when I was thin too) — and so does my extremely thin daughter. It’s genetic and no on bats an eye at putting me on a cholesterol medication. So why is everyone so stealth about going on semaglutides. I will probably be on it for the rest of my life but that’s ok because so many other obesity related risk factors won’t be a constant source of worry. Staying fat is bad. Happy to have this tool![/quote]

Here's the thing, the drug suppresses appetite (from what I understand). So you eat less and lose.  If you are already not eating much, how does it work? It may optimize blood sugar like metformin but otherwise I dont see that it somehow increases your metabolic rate. [/quote]

It makes you eat less than you were eating before. Not that hard to understand. [/quote]

It also slows down the emptying of your stomach.  If you're stomach is still full, you don't eat.  If the drug also curbs the impulse to eat, then you won't eat.  [b]For me, when I started I felt like had eaten Thanksgiving dinner if I ate a few bites. [/b] You really have to watch what you're eating when you start.  You need to make sure that every bite has nutricional value because you won't be eating a lot. [/quote]

for me it feels like it multiples the amount of food you've eaten 10 times. if you eat two bites you are not hungry, and you eat a third of a normal meal you feel full and you eat a whole meal you feel really stuffed and then nauseous if you eat more than that. I think the "side-effects" are mostly what happens when you eat too much.[/quote]
