Or the skinny parents feed their kids their diet and the fat parents feed their kids their diet.


One family is eating carrots for a snack and the other potato chips.

I was at a birthday party a few weeks ago and saw a family of 5. Mom and Dad were definitely fat, but not grotesquely so. 2 of their kids were also chubby but nothing crazy there either.


Then they had what I assume was like a 7 or 8 year old that had to be pushing 200lbs. Maybe more. Was really sad to see.

And then try to deny it or come try to talk shite about people doing innocuous shite. Like c’mon dawg, you told us you spent years you were a giant piece of shite and you want to talk shite because you don’t like a dudes pants?

You're an admitted addict, yet you don't seem to have any sympathy for anyone else who might struggle with compulsions or addictions. Kind of a jerk, aren't you?

Yeah no, fat parents have fat kids because the fat parents eat like shite and feed their kids the same shite.

Eat less and move more. No such thing as a miracle drug

You gain all the weight back and more when you stop taking them.
Why would you stop taking them? Diabetics take these same drugs forever. If needed to keep the weight off, stay on it. Better than taking other drugs for all the complications of obesity.

Also, studies show that on average patients gain back about 75% of the weight they lost if the drugs are stopped. Not "all the weight and more".

They don’t work if you don’t.

I’ve been taking Zepbound for 1 1/2 years, I also walk 2.5 miles a day and lift 3-4 times a week.

I’ve lost 75 lbs

The flip side is the unintended POSITIVE benefits. For instance, it was originally studied to prevent/counteract Alzheimer’s and Dementia and has been shown to have positive effects on those diseases.

As far as NEGATIVE, there are already reports of loss of vision/blindness, so it’s just a matter of what other long-term negatives exist balanced with whatever positive occurs due to weight loss, which can be equally as massive.

I think the benefits outweigh the negatives with obese people. But the negatives IMO will far outweigh the positives for every woman with just a little bit of meat that takes it to look like a skeleton with a sunken in face. Too many really good looking women are getting on it and don’t need it.

Ive seen studies that showed rats prefer Oreos to cocaine. Refined carbohydrates are highly addictive.
