Well, I'm the female significant other and bought my husband 4 so far, while I still use the one I bought at the new mall when I was 9 years old (35 now).

I know, right. Increased risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, etc, but at least he’s thinner

Yeah....the point is that for many people, their hobbies involve invading other countries, human trafficking, slavery, r**e, grand plans for literal genocide and other forms of dehumanization. What most people would prefer doesn't change the existence of those who have other plans....at which point the only means of minimizing loss of life is to ensure that the people opposed to those horrors, are the ones with the most advanced technology.

For the last time, you can exercise and eat well and still be overweight. GLP-1's are a tool not a quick fix. You still have to eat right and exercise to maintain weight loss. For some of us, the injections have "corrected" what wasn't working within our bodies that held onto weight. I have lost 7 pounds in 6 weeks, slow and steady. Will we ever live in a time where you can just be in the body you have? I have had abuse hurled at me from strangers about losing weight and so now that I'm losing weight with the help of an injection, that isn't good enough either? Make up you're mind for why you hate me today and let me get on with it. As an aside, if you have never carried weight that is NOT from overeating, then sit down, shut up and be grateful that you don't have to live the nightmare that is being overweight in this society.

They hate you if you're fat, they hate you if you lose weight if it's not the 'right way'. Do what's best for you. "Ozempic vulva" JFC.

My husband walks our dog at 5.30 am because he leaves for work at 7 am. We have a house and a garden. Dogs need walks anyways.

... completely paid off after 13-14 years. ...Husband and I will be lucky, if we make it within 30 years. Both academics and hard working. But yeah, it's just the avocado toasts probably...
