Just get mounjaro!

What I can’t get my head around is when critics of Mounjaro say it is safe to use for diabetes but maybe not for weight loss. If the drug is safe, it is safe! Your body doesn’t know what you are taking it for.

Also don’t understand the obsession that some people have with WLI who don’t need or plan to take them. What’s it got to do with you whether other people want to use them?

Yep. Lots of the size 12-14 mums at school are now size 8-10, all achieved with seemingly very little effort since Xmas. It’s annoying tbh.

My lovely and very honest friend is on them - at least she hasn’t fibbed about it like everyone else. She’s just had one pen so far and lost 3kg. She wasn’t overweight to start with - about 10 stone and 5 foot 6. She said it’s the easiest thing she’s ever done to lose weight by far. She sent a pic of her sister in as they look vaguely alike from5 years ago when her sister was a little overweight (post baby). Apparently the recently tightened up rules asked for a new pic with a piece of paper saying the date so she got another pic of her sister and got a local college student to photoshop in the piece of paper.

you have to admire the ingenuity really…. I was pretty shocked though.

That's your body telling you it's not good for you.
Better to cut out sugary foods & ultra processed foods which are packed full of sugar, salt and seed oils.

I wish I could take it but I had such terrible diarrhoea and vomiting which lasted several months. I feel so sad that I couldn't continue with it.

These are the very same women who previously judged me for being healthy, coming to school in gym leggings and avoiding take away after a night out. Lots of snarky comments from this crew and people saying “oh but she’s naturally slim so it’s easy for her” - I’m not at all, many in my family have struggled with weight.

I think it’s a great tool for those who are actually overweight or have weight related conditions but for people just losing a stone for holidays it’s very annoying. Especially when those people have previously been very judgey about slim people through jealousy.

Au contraire, to some it has, that’s the whole point of the medication. for those it doesn’t come easy to.

Are you actually saying you regret staying slim and admitting you’re jealous that it’s now available for more people.

I admire your honesty, but jealousy is not a nice trait.

Because some of us have worked hard for years to stay slim. It doesn’t come easy.

I get that. Staying slim is hard, which is why I got fat. I didn’t work hard enough at staying slim. But I can’t understand why you’d be annoyed about it. Mounjaro might be helping me to get slim, but I’ll have to work hard to stay that way. I know that, and it won’t be easy.

Because some of us have worked hard for years to stay slim. It doesn’t come easy.

What do you mean your friends hasn’t fibbed about it? You expect other mothers to talk to judgemental you at the school gates about the medication, hell would freeze over before I did that.

Why is it annoying, because it makes you jealous? I cannot think of any other reason it would annoy you.

Ah that’s what set this wittering off: a general a comment about dieting

It’s all in your head.

It's a forum with thousands and thousands of readers every day. You'd be extremely lucky if I were the only one who's reading your increasingly poor attempts to deflect! The time to complain about pomposity, incidentally, was before your invented, unevidenced 'uncomfortable truths' line. The ego!

Well done for copying something out of an online dictionary. But you made yourself appear unreasonable with the bullshitting and goalpost moving.

I see this bitter snippy type of comment often, and it is abundantly clear all that’s happening is people stop misinformation and inaccuracies being posted.

it really does come across as some posters just want to post made up or exaggerated negative comments, for reasons only they know, and get annoyed when it’s corrected..

the discussions aren’t derailed, but it’s clear these meds have brought out a lot of resentment in some women, a lot of jealousy, so they behave in a judgey way, posting inaccurate or exaggerated comments due to it, then get pissed off when they are corrected.

What a bizarrely pompous post - “”you will leave readers to decide” 😄
You’re clearly playing to the gallery in your head but I doubt anyone is reading this conversation.

I responded to an aspect of someone’s post I was interested in, I’m not that interested in obesity. It’s not rocket science.

No idea what you’re getting at in your last para. Nor do I care at this point.

Sealioning is a form of online trolling where a person disguises bad-faith badgering as a polite, sincere request for debate or evidence. It involves relentless, repetitive questioning—often about basic or settled facts—designed to exhaust the target's patience and make them appear unreasonable.
