I think I just fell in love with you.

I almost fell off of my chair.

LMAO. Yes, do this.

I don't understand being married and look upon your spouse's physical appearance as a reason not to love that person.
Ozempic is killing people so I guess if you're determined to kill your loved one go ahead. Cross your fingers they don't get a dose of cancer.

Yeah, you have zero idea what you are talking about. Discussing Ozempic is worse for your health than remaining obese as you go into your 50s? Oh, really?

Somehow you think this is about a bikini contest. It's not.

What? Ozempic is killing people? By giving them cancer? Where on earth did you hear that?

The thing I love about DCUM is that you probably hate some of my other posts. But you don't associate them with me, so it makes no difference.

Op, just tell him you're worried he has pre diabetes. Because he snores.

Sleep apnea too.

You said he snores. I would look into whether he has sleep apnea first. Getting quality sleep makes it easier to do portion control and sleep apnea can be dangerous.

I talked to my husband about ozempic but he’s a hard no. He’s exactly the target audience for it. He’s worried about the side effects and thinks he can do it on his own. I’m, like, buddy you’ve been saying that your whole life.

It’s his call though. That’s that.

I wish I could get my wife to go on it. She’s packed on about 40 lbs, now flirting with 170. I’m just not attracted to her anymore now that she’s fat. I wish she’d at least consider it.

If he can lose weight on his own he doesnt really have an issue. If he ever stops ozempic he will just pile it back on like he has in the past.

I'm all for using these drugs as intended, but it doesnt seem like it'll help much in this situation. Unless you are suggesting he stay on this forever because you can't deal with his fatness?

could you send him an anonymous letter in the mail with stuck on letters saying 'you seem nice but are fat. have you considered ozempic?' and then feign horror and shock when he receives it.

Has anyone tip toed into the weight loss drug conversation with a family member?

my husband could benefit I think. He’s struggled with his weight for a decade - he drops a lot with a strict diet and exercise, then the weight comes back when he can’t maintain the diet.

He could lose ~50lbs and that would put him at 180-190.

He is a pretty healthy eater - no red meat - but struggles with portion control. He also struggles with getting quality sleep due to snoring.

He gets a physical every 18 months or so. He’s due for one - it’s often a different doc at the practice.

I wish a doc would make the suggestion to him, but I don’t think they will - though he’s told he needs to lose weight. He’s mid-fifties.
