My wife was showing me some vlogger idiot out of Texas who went hard on Ozempic and she looks like skeletor with big fake titties. I can see how this could be something that certain subset of people would definitely abuse.

New studies suggest plugged metabolic pathways leading to insulin resistance that are more difficult to reverse.

Apparently 75% of population has insulin resistance but not everyone gets into a state where it becomes a medical problem.
Think skinny fat. You look skinny but are storing fat across all your organs.

I wish I could expense a continuous glucose monitor. Would tell me more about lifestyle and foods than anything.

This will be well worth it if only so I don’t have to look at as many fat people day to day

You're following the wrong influencers.

Let's not forget that every time a fatty takes these pills, it becomes that much harder for a diabetic person to get their pills. That's not a positive on our healthcare system.

If there is profit to be had someone will fill the gap.

Lot's of fat asses have this problem. I think it lies with BMR. The skinny fat people have a super small BMR, so they diet down, don't work out, lose even more muscle and some fat. Stall out eventually or rebound and gain it all back (ala the biggest loser). Try to get someone who is hypothyroid (massive problem in our society) to lose weight. Half the people out there probably have TSH of 4 or higher, meaning their thyroid is screaming for more T3 all day long but not getting it.

CICO is definitely the biggest factor in losing weight. But to think your bodies hormones don't come into play at all and every person in the world needs their weight * 15 cals a day for maintenance and adjust from there is silly.

I dont doubt that that the level of effort can vary to a certain degree but that just means that some have to work a little harder than others to achieve the same goals. BMR however is a function of size, weight and age. Those that are obese have a higher BMR of course because they weight more at the beginning. I think its a silly metric however and shouldn't be really considered when planning to lose weight over the more important TDEE. This is where the rubber hits the road when calculating deficit for loss. However, even then, the calculators out there vary wildly.

The best way and often the cause for failure (IMO) is using weight measurements + honest calorie counting to establish a true baseline. Then subtract a reasonable number from that as your target intake. Often people under estimate their calories and add too aggressive deficit. They see some results but are miserable because they are quite literally starving themselves.

Hormones, i agree, are a factor however I feel like they are more to do with how you FEEL as opposed to simply losing the weight. Again, making them miserable and setting themselves up for failure. Weight loss must be a lifestyle change and a gradual one at that but people pump their bodies with this garbage then go back to drinking 2L of coke per day and eating 200% their current TDEE once they lost the 20lbs they wanted.

Yes, CICO is over simplifying a complex problem but its the place to start and effective for vast majority of the population.

What profits? No profits in advertising pills.

I used to sell this drug many years ago when it was Victoza. Might have been 2011 or so. Side effects were not desirable from what i can remember. Terrible nausea, bloating, feeling full all the time. Patients took it because it did a great job of controlling their blood sugar levels. The weight loss seemed to be a byproduct that may not have been worth it. That was then. Maybe the new once a week version is better now. Going for lunch with one of the reps who sells it this week. I'll ask her for some details on it.

[ExtraSlow]

Ask her for some samples and sell em to the fatties of beyond.

Listen you cunt stain - I ain't getting of my ass and I sure as fuck ain't doing any sit-ups, so if a pill gives me anal leakage and turns my cock grey, I'll take it as long as I lose 12 pounds!!!
