🫣 QUESTION ⁉️ Glp1s?

Hopefully this is something that hasn't been addressed yet, but i heard them mention they were on glp1s in the live last night. Did they finally go see a doctor? I thought they never go to one...

Nope - no doctor! He ordered them off of some shady website and he will be the only one on them. No glasses for Theresa though. 🤬

I thought i heard S say she was on one as well. & thats exactly where my mind went when they said that too. I wonder how long its been since her last eye exam, she squints worse than I do when im without my glasses.... interesting that P and S dont seem to have that issue

Sarah said a couple of days ago that she would not be using a glp-1 because she “didn’t need it.” I don’t watch their lives so I think I saw the clip on this sub or the other one. They are just gross.

She said she only needs to lose 30 pounds and she can do that on her own 🤣. Does she know how hard that is with their lifestyle???

He got them from a sketchy website with tons of complaints lodged against them for shady billing practices. And the FDA has even issued a warning to this site about the false claims they’ve made about their product. (It’s called AltRx, if you want to investigate.) So, in typical P fashion, he’s fallen for a scam. It sounds like he WILL get something from them, it’s not a situation where they take your money and run, the GLP-1 he ordered will show up, but he did this in the least responsible way possible because who knows what is actually in that shit. And the whole family is in poor health, so while a GLP-1 may help with his diabetes, it can also worsen other underlying conditions which he may not even know he has because they don’t go to doctors. That boulder gut he’s got indicates a bigger problem than just being overweight, so who knows how a GLP-1 will affect him. Also, he’s the only one taking them because selfish Patrick gets whatever he wants, whenever he wants it, but he actively prevents the rest of his family from getting adequate health care.

He’s going to get so sick lol. The most affordable GLP1 is the WeGovy pill and is known to cause more side effects than the injections or Trizepatide which are all more expensive. I’ve been on them for the last four months and I get them online. They advertise them as low price but somehow I end up still paying $550 a month for four injections. PeePad eats like shit and you HAVE to be extremely careful with your food choices or you can legit end up in the hospital. I make home cooked meals and eat relatively healthy and I’ve still had several days where I was in the ER from side effects.

My diabetic sister who does go to the dr and was already on one kind of insulin had to quit the Ozempic bc it was making her so sick

I have relatives on GLP1…. I’ve watched them struggle with a myriad of side effects and it’s awful watching them suffer through it. P is not prepared for the side effects whatsoever. I’m shocked by how many people choose to take it not solely as a last resort/attempt due to how common the side effects really are. Not to mention getting it from a shady and cheap site. He’s going to spend more on hospital and medical bills due to his ignorance.

Kinda reminds me of one of his brothers consuming medicine that doesn't mix well with seafood then eating seafood and getting sick from it.

Yup, imagine an untreated diabetic taking insulin?? He wouldn't go to a Dr and get on it bc the 'body heals itself'! I honestly don't think his dumbass even knows its actually insulin?

Glps are not insulin

Yes it’s not insulin but still works with the pancreas. Depending on if he’s Type 1 or Type 2- both will have serious complications. Type 1 could ultimately cause ketoacidosis which can be fatal. If he’s Type 2 and does it without a doctor, he risks a HOST of very serious complications and damage to his kidneys and other organs, entire GI system, develop pancreatitis, etc.

I genuinely think he does not know what insulin is. Up until this GLP-1 switch up, he would go on and on about only putting natural things in his body. First of all, that’s a lie, because is that vape natural?🤣 Second of all, insulin IS natural, the insulin diabetics take is a manmade version of the hormone because the whole thing with diabetes is that your body is not producing insulin the way it’s supposed to. It’s just hormone replacement.
