Yeah that’s not how that drug works. It makes you eat less mostly. Which means you buy less tacos and hamburgers.

It’s ok the profit margins on those things are triple what they used to be. McDs is gonna be just fine.
The rest of us that want regular healthy food are fucked though.

Doesn’t it cause weight loss by killing your appetite?

Huh. TIL. They could have just taken Adderall this whole time. I used to lose so much weight every school year because it absolutely demolished my appetite. Apparently that’s what Adderall was initially created to do. And boy, that’s one of the things it did.

It really is the hunger games.

This. A fast food addict is a future ozempic patient.

And, once they lose the weight, fast food will be there to welcome them back into the fold because the fundamental issues that causes people to become overweight in the first place aren’t dealt with by shots.

The crazy thing is is that epigenetics plays such a massive role that even a single generation of intentional change can produce astronomical differences, like when you see a third-generation Mexican immigrant who is like six foot five, and they go and hug their four foot four grandmother.
That early childhood supply of abundant calories in an active environment with low stressors can make such a huge difference on how your kids end up looking and how their entire lives play out, and those changes will likely propagate down through the generations.
