How will weight loss jabs change the weight loss industry?

[FloordrobeIsGoingToGetME]

Apologies if there's another thread going, I've looked but couldn't see one. I also started one yesterday in general weight loss but no responses,

I've been through WW, SW, gym programmes, PTs and even Corinne Crabtree's NoBS programmes.

I've just started in injections and having a good response in terms of mindset, appetite reset etc.

We all know that the weight loss industry is ENORMOUS.

What do you think the big names are doing about changing their models/incorporating medication elements into their programmes, if anything?

Or is it already happening?

People can buy MJ for £100 a month ( with a referral code) so that's £25 a week. I mean yes it's a lot more than £6 a week but not an outrageous amount. Less than Botox r even gel nails which many see to get.

This reminds me a bit of those private school threads where some people are convinced everyone could afford to send their children to private school if they only made some sacrifices. If someone can't afford MJ, they probably can't afford botox/manicures either.

Yep, £25 a week if you're already struggling to pay the rent, feed your family, heat your home is a lot of money. There's no doubt that using WLM offers an opportunity to reduce food and alcohol expenditure but we really need to see NHS prescribing rules change, if this isn't going to become a miracle drug only available to the better off. In a decade or less, I can imagine that only the poor will be fat, and they will experience the double whammy of living in poverty and being obese. We could see a whole new level of fat shaming.

Agreed. You are already 50% more likely to be obese if poor now so will only create even greater disparity. About to take my 4th jab today, down 12lb down from 12st 1lb, 58, on HRT and testosterone.
Feel great, this feels like a miracle drug to me.
We need governments to intervene to stop the food Industry self regulating and sort out the ultra processed food which can often be cheaper than giving kids fruit etc. However not holding my breath so until they do a lot of people will take this, me included.
Since I have gone on MJ, two of my family and two friends have gone on it as they know how I normally struggle to lose weight. I know exactly what I should eat, do loads of exercise but compulsive eating takes over.

Spas that focus on weight loss will have to adapt - suspect they'll stress the heavily protein nature of their food with special WLJ programmes plus 'how to come off' programmes plus treatments for loose skin...

I think it's very positive. Obesity is a healthcare problem, it's wrong that there is an industry capitalising on people's struggles with it, the jabs as much as people have the yuck factor about them are a medical intervention which is what obese people need, not stupid slimming clubs designed to make them dependent on a daft plan.
