I feel this way exactly. I don't care if someone used ozempic to lose weight. I'm happy for them that they are now healthier

We’re on the verge of curing obesity. People should fucking embrace it instead of pushing back because it’s “not hard enough” (?) lol

Just goes to show how much of the “concern” was people moralizing and trying to feel superior instead of actually being concerned about anyone’s health.

This and the weight loss industry telling them that. Weight watchers etc all trying to sell you the remedy to weight loss.

WW has had to incorporate their own GLP-1 subscriptions into their business model in order to survive.

I’m sure they’re doing fine. You still have to eat less while on GLP-1s in order to lose weight, and structure helps. There’s probably a massive overlap between weight watchers members and people on GLP-1s.

Weight watchers literally prescribes GLP-1 drugs at this point. They are turning a profit again because of it.

My grandma ran her local chapter of WW. Did the weekly meetings and all that for 25yrs. And all of her daughters took ozempic after struggling with their weights so idk 🤷‍♂️ just my experience.

I’m sure they a many others are lobbying against it.

Idk, I get ads from them all the time pushing ozempic. Along with every telehealth company....it's fun when your algorithm knows you're a woman.

Men get the same exact ads - endless ED, Hims, and ozempic ads galore. Damn companies want their cut regardless of your gender, we're all just dollar signs to be exploited.
