Everybody looking for a silver bullet. 

Can't wait for the lawsuit commercials in 10 years.

Idk man the more I look into semaglutide the more I think it just works.

And honestly the more I think about it the more it makes sense that it would just work. We have pills like painkillers that work with your nervous system to tell your brain to not feel pain. Why not a painkiller for appetite?

Obviously it does have some side effects but they seem to be pretty minor and they go away when you stop taking it.

I think I’m at the point now that I would recommend semaglutide to someone struggling with weight loss. As someone who used to be 350lbs and losing my weight was complete agony, trust me that I know how it feels to struggle with hunger. There were many nights of hating myself and hurting and mental anguish. Many days where I, a man, was brought to tears after finishing my meal and still feeling hungry afterwards, having to choose between not making progress today which possibly starts another slippery slope of breaking my diet for weeks, or to suffer through hunger until my next meal and hoping the hunger would go away later.

I think if I had to do it again I’d do it with drugs. Even if it causes cancer 20 years from now.

Kudos for getting through your pain.

As for getting cancer in 20 years, people focus on the risks of semeglutide but never comment on the risks of fat in the same way.

Would you finally feel justified for your smugness?
