#it just feels like the medication version of that contraption that wires ur jaw shut to limit ur calorie intake

Any thoughts on the Ozempic weight loss discourse? Seems like it might be a "cure" for obesity, although obviously there have been previous Miracle Drugs that amounted to nothing. If anything, it might make being a feedist even more deviant if the US obesity rate actually meaningfully declines from this

cw: disordered eating, medical fatphobia

my doctor offered to put me on ozempic for my pcos but the packet of potential side effects was insane, especially for ppl who already struggle with weight related illnesses 😰 it makes me so sad that ppl are using diabetes medication to synthetically reduce their appetites, several of the women in my family took fen phen in the nineties and one nearly died 😥 depending on the long term efficacy, safety, and accessibility, i wouldn't be surprised if it made being visibly overweight more frowned upon though :/
