[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm jealous. I just wanna lose 10-15 pounds. 
It must be more widely distributed than I realize. [/quote]

You are  definitely not going to get a Rx for it with 10-15lbs to lose.

So many obese people are on it. Not so many slightly chubby people. [/quote]

Not true at all. I have several friends on it to lose their baby weight. There are lots of telehealth doctors who will write the scripts for anyone who wants to pay OOP for the meds.

I am on Mounjaro because I am obese and have type II diabetes. My doctor fought with my insurance to get it covered. I kept it secret for a while before disclosing it to my close girlfriends and was floored with 2 of them told me they were on meds, too. They are both skinny with only ~20 lbs of baby weight or covid weight gain to lose. Both pay out of pocket each month.  [/quote]

I am the poster who said it's cheating.  People who want these medicines to lose weight and for no other reason are cheating by using it.  If you have diabetes then OK, but just as a form to lose weight (like most celebrities who have lost unhealthy amounts recently), are cheating.  [/quote]

You sound like a five year old who doesn’t know what words mean. It’s not a game or a competition. One cannot cheat at pursuing health. [/quote]

You are a troll. You repeatedly focus on the use of “cheat” as if you’re triggered or trying to instigate/derail legitimate discussion and points. It’s not hard to distinguish between someone using it because they need it (eg have diabetes) and someone who’s using it to lose “baby fat” as in PP’s example of her friends who are paying out of pocket for it just to lose a little bit of weight. The latter is not pursuing health.[/quote]

What? PP stated anyone who is using it to lose weight is cheating: “People who want these medicines to lose weight and for no other reason are cheating by using it.  If you have diabetes then OK, but just as a form to lose weight (like most celebrities who have lost unhealthy amounts recently), are cheating.”

I do not have diabetes. I am only using it to lose weight in the pursuit of health. I am not cheating anything or anyone and it is ludicrous to say so.

There are those who abusing prescription drugs to become as thin as possible unnecessarily. Again, it makes no sense to call it cheating. It’s drug abuse the same way taking pain medication unnecessarily is drug abuse. [/quote]

It's been stated multiple times to not be sustainable, you have to be on it for life.  How is that a pursuit of health?  [/quote]
