Anyone here taking Ozempic? Care to share your experience?
- brucificus 3y agoWhen the supply is steady... yes, I bought waaaaay less food.
- ThaFresh 3y agoGiven how much less junk food you eat, it's very cost effective
- simplyskeptic 3y agoI don't take it but my wife does. I saw a reduction in our spending almost immediately because she's bringing home less from the grocery store and no longer interested in eating out. I've saving money even after our out of pocket costs (insurance covers none of this for us) and I have a happier wife.
- kjs3 3y agoNot Ozempic, but same class drug. I am extremely lucky to have zero side effects, not everyone does, so understand what you could be in for. My experience isn't your experience. TANSTAAFL. That said...pre-diabetic symptoms (genetic predisposition included) gone based on blood sugar readings. Lost a life-changing amount of weight over several months (i.e. it's not a 'loose 20 lbs in a week' weight loss drug unless you're using it in an very unhealthy way). Subjectively, cravings heavily reduced. Doc says blood work going in the right direction. So I can say cautiously it's a net win.
- homero 3y agoI need it as an actual diabetic but it's hard to get
- AviationAtom 3y agoWife was taking Wegovy. In the same class but specifically meant for weight-loss. She felt sick most the time on it, but it does work.
- phnofive 3y agoTaking compounded tirzepatide ($6000/yr for 15 mg/wk) and lost ~120 lbs. Ironically, sugar tastes a lot stronger, and food generally tastes better, but I don't want as much. Haven't seen any other changes or improvements.
