re: Taking GLPs apparently pisses off feminists

You're laughing but there are absolutely people who look at it as a "they're just too lazy to do it themselves" because you have this rash of people who are using it to lose very little weight and that helps facilitate that stigma.

I saw a female comedian recently and she was making comedy, but the point she was making was true. Ugly fat women used to be so pleasant to be around. They were happy and fun to talk to. Anyone remember the old Robin Harris bit about marrying a fat ugly woman?

Now, the internet and black guys have convinced them that they are hot and they have become just awful. Nasty people.

I can smell that group from here

Because if you can avoid calling something what it actually is, then you can avoid accountability for your problems...which is really the ultimate goal in all of this. "I didn't eat 6 cupcakes for a snack because I can't control my cravings. It was the 'noise' of the cupcakes that I could not silence. So it really wasn't my fault."

I’m on the shot. It’s great. Here’s the thing regarding “food noise”. I’ve always been a fat frick. Still fat, just less fat now. And I can tell you I always thought about food. Like what am I eating next meal while eating my current meal. People who aren’t fat don’t think about that because whatever in their body doesn’t have them programmed like that. So yes it sounds stupid to them. I liken it to smokers. I’m not a smoker. Why can’t people that smoke just quit. Just stop doing it. Don’t be a pussy.

On the shot, I never think about food. I know I have to eat meals but i often miss a meal because i was busy and oh, now it’s bed time.

I’m not saying that as an excuse for being fat. It is what it is. Mistakes were made. Just trying to right the ship and be healthy.

see this is typical behavior from insecure women and on the OT of insecure men

so worried about what others take to lose weight or just to look the way they do.

why the frick do you care? maybe they arent lazy but prefer to have help to get it done faster, maybe they like the health benefits or maybe you should just mind your fricking business.

the only reason there is a negative stigma about any of this is straight up jealousy. same with HGH, TRT and steroids.


its all some form of cope.

I have concern when it starts to become part of an eating disorder and they end up in my office as a result. Nothing about insecurity, I know that's the cute OT thing to say. I live with someone who takes Ozempic and has benefited from it, but they've also been fortunate enough to have someone prescribing for them that has good knowledge of its utilization (and encouraged working out, lifestyle changes, etc).

We have a clinic in one of our complexes that's prescribing but they're not encouraging strength training, dietary changes, etc. It's like prescribing an SSRI without treating the root cause.

You're awfully angry about the discussion of a simple counterpoint here. Why is that?

But there's obviously a prescribing issue to folks who don't need to be taking it.

Yea my wife has talked to women who have gone on it with the goal of losing like 10-15 lbs.

I feel like you could lose that fairly easily in a relatively short period of time with some mild lifestyle/diet changes. If you need to lose 50+ pounds and need to reverse decades of poor diet, then I get it.
