Ozempic’s Dark Side: Eating Disorder Triggers?

Everyone’s buzzing about Ozempic and Mounjaro for weight loss, but here’s the wild part: these diabetes meds are now showing up in eating disorder clinics. People who’ve struggled with food issues are getting prescribed these drugs, sometimes for legit reasons, but the side effects (like losing your appetite) can totally mess with recovery. Docs aren’t always screening for eating disorders, and some patients are hiding their use. It’s a complicated, risky situation that’s not getting enough attention. #Health #BodyHealth #Ozempic

I've been on OZEMPIC for about 5 months it has effected my appetite. Things I used to eat I no longer am fixing to eat , A lot of what I'm eating now is fresh fruits (mainly) vegetables, little meat, I'm no longer drinking any alcohol, I do have have trouble pooping, and throwing up at least once a week and it always seems like it's 24 hrs after taking my shot . I've lost 15 lbs though . I used to weigh 207lbs now I'm 190 lbs . I know it's not exactly the perfect medicine but it beats going and getting meth to loose weight on.

I'm on a different side of these medications. I have Lupus, causing my immune system to attack every single organ in my body. It caused enough damage that I had a heart attack at 33. Now I am dealing with the effects of it damaging my liver, due to incompetent Drs, by the time we noticed my liver, it caused irreversible damage. Wegovy was the first thing prescribed to me, for Liver and Cardiac risk reduction for adults who have advanced disease. This shot is actually giving me a chance to live a little longer before I get to that point of no return, physically. Surgery is only a very last resort for someone with my medical history. Although I completely agree, that these meds aren't for just anybody and everybody, that doesn't give me or anyone else the right to talk shit or tell you what to do with your body. More power to you, I hope it works for you!! Telling people why you think they shouldn't do something, just shows your immaturity. Grow up and worry about your own life.
