I think the only reason someone should use GLP-1 medications is if they have Type 2 Diabetes and if they tried diet/exercise and it did not help or uncontrolled diabetes. My aunt wanted a GLP-1 medication but her doctor told her no because she doesn't want to commit the time to eating healthy and taking time to exercise. She is not diabetic either and wanted the easy way out. I would like to see the research done on what would happen to someone in the long term as in like 5 years down the road. Like did it do harm, all the side effects, did it cause irreversible side effects, etc. What a lot of people who take them don't realize that the original use of GLP-1 drugs is that you are supposed to stay on the drug the rest of your life.

You can look at these types of medication in two ways:

1. Side effects (nausea, headache, etc.)/future unknowns (cancer?) from the medication.
2. Side effects of being fat (potential heart disease, high bp, cancer, joint issues, etc).

The sagging skin in the neck and face is so easy to spot.

And Americans wonder why the country is so unhealthy.

Instead of just eating right and staying active, these losers would rather pop a pill or take a shot.

I have type two diabetes but I manage it well, its a little pill with a big story to tell! I take once-daily Jardiance at each day’s start! As time went on, it was easy to see, I’m lowering my A1c! Jardiance is really swell, The little pill with a big story to tell!!

Not a chance in hell

Move around. Go for walk. Swap one Big Mac a week for one salad. You don’t have to lift weights 7 days a week

I’d lose 25 pounds in a month if I gave up IPA’s

There are so many minor things you can do before I’m jabbing myself in the leg for the rest of my life

It definitely works but it should be reserved for legit conditions

Not to go from 225 to 185

You can so that on your own if you really wanted to

One of these is way easier to avoid

I take Mounjaro for type 2 diabities the weight loss is just a bonus. 1 shot a week instead of the 2-3 daily pills. Only side effects I had was slight nausea the very first week of taking it as my body adjusted. Since then no side effects whatsoever.
