Know of a parent who got an Rx for herself and gave it to her 15y.o. DD. She probably lost 20 pounds and now looks unhealthy. She has Ozemoic face big time. All the kids at school know she took Ozempic and now she has that to deal with. Mother has issues anyway and will do anything for her DD to be popular (boys, drinking etc). Kind of sad but also dangerous.

That’s too hard Americans want it quick and easy
Spoken like a true idiot you are. Nothing quick and easy about using these drugs. You still have to do the work. It just makes it possible to do the work.
So, respectfully, STFU already and go on your marry skinny way.
Angry bird mad cause you feel nauseous

is it 1950??
no wonder this country is so effed up.
It's truly amazing that people still a difference between 8-10 or even 4-6 is going to guarantee some kind of a lottery of a mate. They must live sad, unfulfilling lives.

In addition, lots of people meet their spouses in college. She should want someone who is attracted to her body now. If she snags a guy who likes lean body type because she’s on weight-loss drugs, she’ll either be tied to the drugs for life, or he might feel that she pulled a bait and switch after she goes off them and resumes her natural metabolism.
For example, I have a less-desirable hair type. I’ve had a guy who was attracted to me straight out reject me once he saw my natural hair. It was informative. Unless I wanted to straighten my hair every day for the rest of my life, I was better off moving through the dating works with natural hair. It let me focus on guys who thought I was pretty, as-is. In the long-term, she’s better off moving though the dating world using nutrition and exercise to have a healthy body at her natural set point.
Your hair is beautiful.

If it were my daughter I would definitely discourage a medication that's intended for a lifetime and can have very uncomfortable (if not dangerous in rare cases) side effects for really what's a vanity pursuit.
I suspect she may looking for an "easy way" to lose a few pounds? Exercising and eating "right" is hard work.
It's also an awfully expensive, isn't it about $1K a month if not covered by insurance? That's money she could be saving to buy a car, down payment down the line on a house...
It's about 300/mo if you do an online service. It's expensive. Was it worth it for me? 100% yes. I'd not recommend it to such a young person not dealing with complicated perimenopause hormonal issues.

How can an 18 year old afford this by herself?

She works out and a lot of her weight may be muscle. 8/10 is normal for her height. I do some work around semaglutides and I would definitely not encourage her to use them. The risks and side effects at her age are really not worth it.
I think I would try to understand what she wants and why. Next steps depend on that.
I agree -- my 17 yo DD's BMI is just shy of "overweight" and it's ridiculous if you look at her. She's an athlete who has muscles and appears slim.
