“Am I the last fat person in America?” asks @damemagazine’s Kate Bernyk. She writes about the rise of weight-loss drugs like Ozempic, the message that delivers to fat people — ”Your body is a mistake, and now there’s finally a way to fix it,” — and why she doesn’t want to take medication to change her size. “The idea of eliminating any kind of body should terrify us — not just because it’s wrong, but because it’s unimaginative,” she writes.

Dame Magazine - · Am I the Last Fat Person in America? - Dame MagazineWhat if I were the last fat person, walking through a world where my body is an anomaly, a relic of an era long past? Billboards and magazine covers show only one kind of figure—streamlined, uniform, medically perfected. Store racks are lined with clothes that will never fit me, because the industry has deemed bodies

The problem with the WARNING is that because of PBMs these #counterfeit products get distributed by pharmacies.

I don’t remember if it’s retail pharmacies or facility pharmacies where this kept happening, but there was a PBS Frontline documentary about how PBMs cause counterfeit medication to appear in legitimate supply chains.

So how would any of us know??

New Review and Meta-Analysis confirms weight gain with discontinuance of #Semaglutide and #Tirzepatide

Discontinuing GLP1 medications led to a pooled overall mean weight regain of 9.69 kg (or about 22 lbs in patients prescribed semaglutide/tirzepatide. The proportion of weight regained was proportional to the amount originally lost.

Discontinuation of GLP-1RA treatment leads to weight regain, regardless of lifestyle interventions, and should therefore be considered a chronic therapy to prevent weight regain and associated undesirable outcomes related to #Obesity.

»Und #Semaglutid ist der neue Schlüssel. Der von dicken Menschen, die sich das Hilfsmittel noch nicht leisten können, mit #Ozempic Shaming geneidet wird. Und von den mühelos Schlanken, die sich jetzt um Macht und Exklusivität sorgen, mit Ozempic Shaming als unnatürlich gebrandmarkt und bekämpft.«

GLP-1s Are Crazy Effective — Just Not Cost-Effective

I’ll make the argument that the most effective drugs in the past decade are the GLP-1 receptor agonists, drugs like semaglutide and tirzepatide. At least in terms of weight loss, they are truly unparalleled. They are clearly effective. But are they worth it? Are they cost-effective? That is a much harder question, and, as you’ll see in a minute, despite their amazing effects, the answer — for now, at least — is no.
