    This is unfortunate. WW is hard because they help you lose in a healthy manner. Drugs will kill ya faster than fat, but at least ya look better faster.

    We all wish there was a safe, easy button for life’s challenges. At best, pick one.

      This is just plain false. The health benefits of not being overweight far outweigh any potential negative effects of the drug itself. GLP-1 receptor agonists have been used to treat type 2 diabetes for decades - we’re quite familiar with their risks.

      alot of people want a quick fix when it comes to weight loss, dr now and 1000sisters, almost every just want a immediate solution while refusing to change thier eating habits. ive heard they also eat around thier weight loss surgery sometimes too.

      the extreme people in denial are the people believe fat is being good.

        Frozen processed food isn’t inherently unhealthy. Eating the right amount of calories from nutritious processed food is still probably a net positive over eating too much of any kind of food.

        I’m pretty sure it’s not, but I’ll eat that before rushing gastroparesis.

            Their food has high sodium. At least it did 15 years ago.

            Isn’t high sodium only a problem if your blood pressure is too high? I have asked this a number of times and the only answers I get back about high sodium dangers are related to high blood pressure. Keep in mind, I’m not belittling the dangers of high blood pressure. Those are known and absolutely dangerous to your health.

            However, if whatever sodium you intake doesn’t give you high blood pressure, where is the risk in a high(er) sodium diet?
