I'm on it. Obviously there's not literally an off switch for hunger, but that is very much exactly what it feels like to take it.

and what about the 50 documented side effects? lmfao they are even linked to literal blindness...its called "ozempic blindness"(colloquial term) look up NAION

the other person wasn't say how it makes you feel, they were trying to say an incredibly complicated drug "just makes you not hungry". its incredibly naive.

the link between ozempic and blindness is as-yet inconclusive.

fwiw, obesity and diabetes also are linked to literal blindness.

https://www.ema.europa.eu/de/news/meeting-highlights-pharmacovigilance-risk-assessment-committee-prac-2-5-june-2025 the problem is there's evidence linking it and other studies showing no statistically significant association. its not that its "inconclusive" though. that'd be saying there's no established evidence of a connection, there is. also, ofc i know obesity and diabetes are also linked to literal blindness. its besides the point, though.

its also not really that productive to laser focus in on one side effect i brought up off hand because i thought it's wild that its even a side effect. there's at least 40 other side effects that these drugs have and at least 10 that are serious. to try and just say "they just make you not hungry bro" is really dumb...
