If you take it , you should be under the care of a doctor. I’ve lost forty pounds since February on it, but I have a doctor and a nutritionist guiding me. They’ve left me at a dosage of .5 because it’s working.

As someone who has struggled with and been impacted by obesity his entire life, this drug feels like an actual miracle.

But it’s not. It’s science and you and I don’t qualify to use it without qualified supervision.

Similar, I used Saxenda under a Dr’s supervision, lost 25kgs in 2 years, and another 10 since stopping (with diet). Half the max dose was enough for me. Now I am healthier and look better than ever in my adult life.

I struggled with with my weight since childhood. Obesity is a disease, and now there is finally a cure. It’s a drug with certain risks, witch is also true for every other medicine from aspirin to covid vaccines. Obesity is also risky, everybody can make their choice after consulting a doctor.
