> A small % of people are able to achieve significant weight loss with diet and exercise. And an even smaller % of that group are able to maintain it for the long term.
Ozempic is only fighting symptoms of that, not the root of the problem which is the stigma around weightgain, being a big person, just fatphobia being extremly generalized and a lot of shame surrounding weight. While it's amazing for people who have medical conditions making them gain a lot of weight, just saying that they should take ozempic will not change people gaining too much weight. It's not anything like high cholesterol or high blood sugar in most cases.
a friend of mine often procrastinates answering her therapists texts and it takes a lot of mental strength for her to write something, so i sometimes use chat gpt to have it write a little paragraph for an answer. it doesn't solve the problem entirely but it still helps.
