Is it so hard to eat less and move more? Also, are people not ashamed of being obese? Why go down that path? Something I will never understand.
Correct, you don’t understand.
People aren’t ashamed anymore. It’s glorified
Someone are jealous 😂 my country get so rich just continue to eat all u crap food 🎉
The people prefer injections 💉💉💉
This was a 2 minute long pharmaceutical advertisement disguised as a news story.
🎯
Bingo, nice ot see people are finally seeing how the game is played. Better believe they were paid to do this…
The scary thing is the majority of weight lost is being from bone and muscle density. Only people who are very unhealthy should be on this
Where do you get this “fact”?
Statistically insignificant. Just lose weight, that’s what lowers your risk.
Using a pill to do that which has it’s own absurd side effects is a really stupid approach.
Willpower, the desire to live life to it’s fullest instead of using food as a substitute for happiness, that’s how you lose weight.
That starts and ends with your mental health.
Working out is even better for your heart.💨🤡
“Lord Jesus Christ, Son of GOD, have mercy on me, a sinner” 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please pray these words now 🙏 and please consider beginnning daily prayer, it is a good habit that will help you if you actually do it and continue to do it
Matthew 5:9
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of GOD”
Amen
Here’s a better idea: Get off the couch and put down the fork!

nice ad…
would you rather die skinny or die fat.. ? the choice is yours..
is this journalism or advertisement ? The study was fonded by the company that sells the drug! Isn’t that weird!
👍👍👍👍. I was at a retirement seminar and the speaker spoke on how he quit his job after he made well over $950,000 PROFIT within 3months he invested $120,000. I just began investing and i will really appreciate any tips or helpful guide..
seek the guidance of a professional.
I’m happy to see ALEX L ORLOFF mentioned, he is recognized worldwide, my neighbor recommended him to me after investing £45000 and he has been a blessing to us…
there’s a lot of money to be made in crypto. I feel this new interest rates hikes could crash this economy. I’m looking out for a better investing strategy, I have a lump sum that inflation is steady eating up. Please do you mind sharing any means of reaching out to him easily? I’m really interested.
check the web and you will find him, drop a msg
He’s Active online through his website.
Hmm, not a word about possible stomach paralysis (gastroparesis). I wonder if Lilly is one of their advertisers.
Just go keto folks. Delicious food and no injections.
Could the reduction be from losing the weight ?
This is amazing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9vVBci01C64
This is gonna be the “short response” because I don’t feel like thinking about it anymore than I already have
2:45 If it’s the study I’m thinking of, that calorie reduction was offset by the calories of protein they ate beforehand. So the actual deficit was much smaller; more like ~100kcal 3:36 If you’re extremely overweight, food variety and palatability are gonna be your enemies. Transitioning into a consistent, bland diet will do more psychologically to reduce cravings. A single “treat” can throw off the entire diet 3:04 Consuming a large amount of protein isn’t necessarily the best idea for overweight and obese populations because most animal and dairy sources are high in BCAAs which increase insulin and can contribute to the development or worsening of diabetes for people who most likely are not jacked and so deficit in GLUT4 recepters. Keep in mind that the first-line response to pre-diabetes or early diabetes management, Metformin, specifically inhibits the pathways that BCAAs activate
I will teach n how eat not getting over weight n too skinny.cost Notting. N more health .100 percent.
