Admittedly, I have not noticed. However, it's going to be fascinating to see when the "Ozempic effect" shows up in country and regional level data sets on average weight.

Still fat as ever. Maybe the Ozempic Hollywood effect.

make america big again

Have you seen grocery prices bro?

That too. But junk food is still way cheaper than healthy food.

COVID killed a lot more overweight people too...

Yes, Ozempic and other GLP-1 drugs. They’re still spiritually fat.

The fat people got fatter and cant leave the house so you dont see em.

Stay hungry, stack fats

The two Americans I know who've lost weight did it without meds, through diet, exercise and support. Whatever works. Everyone should be able to enjoy a life of as much health and quality as they can achieve.

Probably a mirage

Technically I'm not American yet, but I do live here and got my green card in November. I'm currently the biggest I've ever been.... but I'm also pregnant so that might have something to do with it 😇🤣 I'll keep growing for about 2.5 more months before I get a natural reset. 🤣

How save is it? Someone close to me is taking it and got others close to me very curious and I'm just worried it's a ticking time bomb. As nostr:npub1e8wj749dylsew4pkm9ufz97hvrtk63wfy0cfq2c9gv4973q25hds8e6dq0 said: They remain spiritually fat or maybe even fatter. Ozempic for life??

It's a mix bag as of now. Many people recover the weight after they stop using it. It only cuts about 20% of the weight, then it stops working. Plus, there are some side effects in some people. We don't know the effects on long term use yet.

So, it works, but it is not for everyone.

A bigger issue is that people are losing a lot of muscle on top of the fat loss. It’s a recipe for disaster as they age.

True as well

Really do you have sources on that.

I don't work for the medical-pharmaceutical complex but don't spread false information here.

The simplest search in any engine would show you multiple sources that this is true.

I think its a combo of ozempic helping people kick start their healthy living changes and the general atmosphere of healthy living on social media.

healthy eating and fitness is becoming more mainstream while junk food is struggling to capture audiences. have you seen how many Oreo and Doritos flavors there are now? that's snack companies panicking to find virality and relevancy in a digital influencer age.

But what are the consequences of the easy solution. I only know of one person who has been taking it and their personality has completely changed for the worse far more aggressive. Not sure if it happens to other people?
