@SingleAHF Google suggests that mounjaro isn't a cure but that it can help with inflammation.
@TheZingyFish I think losing a lot of weight does give one pause for thought. So often we are told that obesity is a disease. Whereas my view is that it is a symptom of a number of different diseases. When we lose weight we are managing the symptom not curing the disease.
Manage one symptom and you may see there are other symptoms or see the disease itself.
Sometimes our weight is used by other people to excuse their behaviour. We may make a convenient punchbag, we are fat so we have to take it. We may be the excuse they use for why they haven't climbed mountains or discovered hidden depths.
Losing weight can also require adjustment in group dynamics. We all have our roles to play. My DH has always been The Fat One in his family. Except that hasn't been true for many years. Yet if you were to ask his family the instinctive response would be to say GnomeDH is the fat one.
As The Fat One in a group of friends or family we are often expected to play a role, to be jolly, to be self deprecating, to be a source of comfort. We can still choose to be those things but by losing weight it becomes our choice not a role we have to take.
Us having a choice bothers other people. I think it is going to bother doctors. Losing weight is used to defer treatment. It is going to bother friends and family as we no longer have to play the role assigned to us.
But that is their problem to solve not ours.
