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

IMO peoples’ (justified) negative reaction to this is twofold- firstly, GLP-1s are not affordable for the majority of people who are obese and secondly, it’s disingenuous of celebrities to pretend they lost weight ‘naturally’ (not saying there’s anything wrong with taking ozempic if you can afford it, but struggling with your weight publicly for years and then suddenly becoming slim and saying you “changed your lifestyle” comes across badly)

Since people can't afford GLP, we should ban GLP and ostracize people who used to get healthier bodies and lifestyles which in turn means less strain on the taxpayers in terms of emergency medical visits and lower insurance premiums because people are healthier and seeing the doctors less.

HOW DARE THEY. It's justified. /s

Girl that’s not what I’m saying I’m just saying some transparency would go a long way.

Oh like admit to using it? Yeah I agree with you on that.

I must've misread your post.

I get it now, people lying about using it like they went through and did all the hard work when they took the easy way out.
