On the other hand, I have several family members who have not used Ozempic who had to have their gallbladder removed...

This is exactly right.

I imagine the OP is the same ol' anti-ozempic troll.

For sure, there are worrisome biomarkers associated with Ozempic, specifically that it uniformly appears to lower heart rate variability and raise resting heart rate, both of which are associated with increases in all cause mortality, but then again so is obesity and diabetes. I wouldn’t take it for 20 pounds but worth the risk if you have other things known to be life shortening.

Ideally you would ditch all the junky food products and the unhealthy foods and focus on plant based and healthy fats, too - that’s for overall health and longevity.

But definitely beans in the morning will shut off your food noise and dial down appetite. I’ve been eating beans for weeks now and I can’t even eat dinner anymore, I just have breakfast and lunch and maybe a small salad or some nuts or fruit in the early evening.

Fiber is really miraculous, and very good for you!


How do you prepare the beans?


I eat them refried - vegan. I make a batch once a week and use black beans because they are overall the most nutrient dense/rich of the beans. I add onion, garlic and spices.

In a pinch when I haven’t food prepped I use Goya refried vegan black beans and I add some more garlic and spices because I like a lot of flavor.

You can eat them all kinds of ways for breakfast - mix in eggs, beans on a whole grain seeded toast, bean burrito, etc.

The more you can front load fiber into your morning meal, the more sated you will feel all day and it will really change your appetite and quiet the food noise. It really works!

Ozempic is not a new drug.

ah, but the 20 dang pounds are so hard to lose!


I'm on Wegovy and have about 80lbs to lose. I would never use this medication for 20lbs. It is not a walk in the park.

I have a question too. My friend is on ozempic for diabetes and she says it’s doing a great job but I notice she has lost so much weight she honestly looks ill. Like in a scary way that you sorta gasp when you first see her. I’ve not said anything of course. But can the weight loss be too much too fast? I’m worried for her.

It's not worth it to lose only 20 pounds.

100 pounds+, yes, which was what the drug was developed for.
