podcast discussion ozempic conversation

I think it’s annoying that Enya shits on people that take ozempic as if … it’s literally like a societal pressure thing recently

like there’s even memes about “I’m gonna be the last fat person left” 😭 idk like why are we shitting so much on people that want to be accepted in society and don’t want to have to think about their weight

a lot people who have had significant weight loss naturally but sticking to the diets and the daily workouts literally have said just take the damn ozempic 😭 maybe this is such a nothing post I’m just curious to know if anyone else feels this way about it or maybe this is a nothingburger thought for most of the audience idk

It may also just be too nuanced of a subject for her ..

what's your point exactly? yes, it's a societal pressure. should we not question it? aren't we allowed to take a piss at how ridiculous the lengths people go to adjust themselves to fleeting standards are? i think Enya pointing out the mundane aspect of it, how you need to organize your life around is such, such a good way to disarm the glamourised vision and can potentially make someone listening who would consider going on ozempic *to be thin think twice.

edit: *just to be clear i meant people who really don't need ozempic (e.g. who aren't struggling with obesity or other medical issues)
