It's not the drug, it's the person. I managed my eating while taking one of the medication and I'm healthy. Lost weight over 8 months and my A1C has dropped from 6.8 to 5.8. Healthy meals and exercise helped in my success.
Im on Wegovy. Everyone on it keep saying how it cured their binge eating and obsessive thoughts on food but I feel gaslighted cuz nothing changed with me. Yes I feel full all the time but those obsessive thoughts are still VERY MUCH there and I find myself "craving" to binge eat even when Im achingly full. My food psychiatrist told me that it doesnt matter if you're on Ozempic, wegovy, or even have weight loss surgery, if you dont cured your mindset than you will never lose weight in the long term.
@@23ButanedioneSo have it on RU-vid where ppl can go your account sooo u continue to be negative on every comment 🙄 for all we know you! U could be 700lb and living in ur momma’s basement 🙄🤷🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
Well, actually, the medication cured her binge eating disorder, but she got anorexia, which is an extremely dangerous disease that kills lots of women in America every year
The medication was created for diabetic patients. Thats one reason there was a shortage. They are not looking at a Patients mental health. The are looking for a bigger profit.
Look people, binge eating, emotional eating, obsessing over food…..these are EATING DISORDERS as well!!!! So tired of the sympathy people have for those starving themselves because of a mental disorder but none for those who over consume because of the same mental disorders.
Well it's because they want to blame us. Not that we were abused as kids ans needed the food to make the dopamine that we aren't getting/ or can't recieve .
@@23Butanedione -That’s not true at all. If you’re in this type of mental head space, whichever way you go is torture. I’ve watched love ones struggle with both. What people who are healthy mentally don’t get is there is no pleasure in binge eating. It’s done as punishment the same way starving yourself is. There is this self loathing aspect that is present. Don’t think for one minute that one is “easier” than the other or that one is worse than the other.
It cured my binge eating disorder, so... I lost 100 pounds in 8 months and have kept it off for a year. And most important, my blood sugar is finally normal. No medication will affect all people the same.
When Ozempic was first introduced I asked my doctor about it. I’m diabetic but not obese, maybe 10 pounds overweight. She said that the side effects were not all known yet and wouldn’t prescribe it for me. Glad she didn’t
I met a very attractive lady around 50 years old, with a very nice figure, her skin looked healthy and young. She was actually quite beautiful. She did these injections. Months later she looked like she was in her late 60's to 70's. She had a lot of loose skin (appeared to have had severe muscle atrophy) with a lot of wrinkles on her face (around the eyes, lips, cheeks, and neck) and body (her arms and legs). And her skin lost that healthy young look. She looked severely aged.
I took ozempic 6 doses and was so ill, couldn’t eat, lost consciousness in a fall suffering several injuries and needed trauma surgery. Very bad experience
Are doctors explaining the effects and drug mechanism to patients? A lot of people seem to be very under-informed about how and why the medication should be used
False for me. I maintained my weight and i eat much healthier. I eat lesser and made me much better having control on what to eat and when. Yes you get urges your human but you must self control. Ive been on it for 1 years and been off for 1 year and doing very well!
There is always something over the decades, until a few years later it makes you permanently bleed from your butt or some other horrific side effect....
but the motto says, eat 3 meals a day, and these portions, and these foods are healthy for you, embryotic and nursing fluids, and the common foods that are half preservatives, additives and everything has added sugar in it. the nation with stockpiles of mre type foods, and always worried.
Also it seems to me that there has to be a point whereby the individual gets himself off the drug and normalizes. I say himself but isn't it more often herself? But it seems many people just keep on it like it's vitamins instead of a drug with side effects. Perhaps it's more like a pacifier at some point and they don't want to lose that comfort.
@@gingerredshoeswhy are you mad? Too lazy to walk tuby? You’re using a medication for diabetics. And you aren’t diabetic? Selfishness at its finest. Why even care about your body if you’re past 30. No one’s gonna want you after that 😂
You can have anorexia and bulemia and have a big body. Thinking otherwise is a common misconception that leads to a whole demographic slipping through the cracks of care. In fact, society encourages it, praising people in big bodies who stop eating or become obsessive about calorie intake.
