@ the pretentious gym guys mad that people lose weight differently than them….yet there are 20 page threads about peptides on this board somewhere. Im not taking this one, but I have been taking a different shot that’s on the market and I honestly have to stop taking it because I’ve lost TOO MUCH weight and too many inches (40 lbs and 4” @ the waist) with little to no side effects in about 6-7 months. I just don’t eat as much. That’s what these shots do. I guess I can go post in the 500 page “PUT DA FORK DOWN” thread on the fitness board or does that not count there either?
Posters whine because people are fat. Fat people lose weight, but not the way posters want them to and continue to whine that they’re no longer overweight, but didn’t do it the conventional/their way.

These drugs are meant for obese people. I'm all for obese people taking these drugs and losing weight.
The problem with these drugs is that they do not discriminate against what type of mass you lose. Studies show that you will also lose approximately 40% lean mass, meaning muscle, tendon, and bone mass.
If you need to lose 100+ lbs, by all means, take these drugs and worry about body composition later.
But the soccer moms taking this in order to lose 20 vanity lbs are not doing it in an healthy manner, especially if they are 50+, as lean mass is extremely important at those ages as it becomes increasingly more difficult to build and maintain as you age.

The issue with these types of weight loss (get thin quick schemes) is they don't last, and people usually put the weight back on in a couple of years.
Unless you modify behavior, nothing is going to change.

The shot slows down the digestive process. People don't feel hungry and eat less.
Eating less always enables someone to lose weight. Most humans are just gluttons and want to blame a 'thyroid' or other medical issue.
Calories in, minus calories burned, equals how fat you are. People can control both factors in this equation; they simply don't.

Yep, you are only allowed to lose weight if you wear lululemon in a non-air conditioned, chop shop converted garage.
