[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't need it, but like any other drug would weigh the pros and cons. The lawsuits are reports of awful side effects would make me hesitant if I needed it. https://nypost-com.cdn.ampproject.org/v/s/nypost.com/2024/01/13/lifestyle/woman-suffers-life-threatening-bowel-injury-from-ozempic-suit/amp/?amp_gsa=1&_js_v=a9&usqp=mq331AQGsAEggAID#amp_tf=From%20%251%24s&aoh=17052415478137&csi=0&referrer=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.google.com&share=https%3A%2F%2Fnypost.com%2F2024%2F01%2F13%2Flifestyle%2Fwoman-suffers-life-threatening-bowel-injury-from-ozempic-suit%2F[/quote] NY Post Article Woman suffers ‘life-threatening bowel injury,’ will have diarrhea forever after using Ozempic: lawsuit[/quote] This story is as clear as mud. The article states that it's not even known if she was using Ozempic for diabetes or weight loss, how long she'd been on it or what dosage. It isn't clear if the injury is actually from Ozempic.[/quote] Gastroparesis is a known side effect of Ozempic, and can lead to bowel obstruction and bowel obstructions can kill - ask Lisa Marie Presley. Typically when large bits of the colon are removed solid stool isn’t a thing anymore. Sometimes you have to get your anus permanently sealed up and poop in a bag attached to your stomach for the rest of your life. But it’s probably better than losing weight via high fiber diet and enduring all that flatulence [/quote] F you. If it were that simple there wouldn’t be so many overweight people. [/quote] I disagree, kind of. Yes, PP is a bit flippant, but not wrong. With that said, it obviously isn't that easy for many people, for a wide variety of reasons. But it isn't because their bodies just act differently. And everybody here knows that. I am sympathetic, truly, because I struggle every day with my self-control. My sister was obese for over 30 years. At the age of 55, she "accidentally" started losing weight when she bought a second home at the beach and spent months there by herself without her husband and wound up skipping dinner often, and getting more exercise--mostly walking. She lost 20 lbs in 2 months, was thrilled that it happened, so made more changes to her diet and exercise. She has platuead after losing 60 pounds. She is still technically obese, but still, she did this with dietary changes, after struggling psychologically with food her whole life. I know it's just one anecdote, but there really is a way. It's just very very hard. [/quote]
