This is the type of comment that could easily be drafted by a scrappy marketing team. Not sure I buy it.

The experience in that comment is literally my experience w/ a GLP-1 Agonist! Poop fart dong gobbler. A marketing team wouldn't write that, though, so you can believe me!

They don't need marketing team writing posts on HN. The drug sells itself and even shortages all over the world.

It is pretty awesome . I’ve been on tirzepitide for a couple months. I’ve lost about 25lbs which is about 8% of my starting weight. I eat a lot less, but have not spontaneously changed what I eat. 50 years of bad habits take time to change.

But I atleast believe change is possible now. I’d pretty much given up. Every time I tried to go on a diet, I’d end up heavier than when I started. Not joking.

In 2009 I did have a winning streak on low carb keto, lost like 75lbs. Gained it back and more over the next couple years though. I’ve tried many times to get back into keto / low carb but have not been successful for more than a few weeks.

This is the first thing I’ve done for weightloss that has legit results that are personally shocking.

I’m very concerned about how to make changes long term. I don’t have a track record of making long term life changes, but I’m going to do my best with this opportunity.

On an account from 2018? That's quite the long game to play when this drug doesn't even require marketing to sell out.
