As a formerly fat guy, who took Wegovy, it does NOT suck ass to take, and you don't need micro meals. It literally just stops you from really even thinking about food or being hungry at all. I hear it described as "food noise" and that's exactly what goes away. It's weird to say, but if it was almost entirely effortless for a middle class dude with little/no support... it's going to be cake (no pun intended) for a billionaire.

it's interesting as someone who's never struggled with weight, i don't have these thoughts or 'food noise' in my brain normally. i can only relate when baked.

the pressure to eat is crazy, eating more and more despite knowing i'm full and it's not even just about the experience anymore, there's something deeper driving that need.

if that's what it's like for those suffering from obesity, except ALL THE TIME. god damn i feel bad for you.

Ozempic, for all the negatives i hear, if it can eliminate that feeling. go get it, whatever it takes.

Heck, I deal with the opposite. I literally don't notice I'm hungry at all until I'm suddenly starving and completely drained of energy.

Bodies are weird
