No but its a lot easier for people who've had trouble and gets results, which is all that matters.

Heroine would also help them lose weight also. Maybe cocaine too, but I'm not sure. So it's not "all that matters".

What matters is, are the negative side effects and long term consequences better for you than the alternatives. One of them is "remaining fat". The other is "doing what other people have proven works.. cut all carbs".

You are showing your own ass with this ridiculous analogy. What are the negative effects of ozempic? Because the negative effects of heroin (not "heroine") and cocaine are well known and grossly outweigh "not being fat."

Is ozempic worse than being fat?

From people I know that have used Ozempic/Wegovy, the side effects are basically that they get a bit nauseated a few hours after an injection. That's it.
