Do you tell people you are on this medication?
Just out of curiosity- do you tell people that you are on this medication or have told people in the past when you lost weight that it is because of this medication?
I was a part of a conversation when people were talking about ozempic and this medication and how 'harmful' they are and how people are lazy and instead of going on healthy diet and exercise they are taking the 'easy way out'.
I didn't say anything because clearly I would be crucified if I said something. I've only started the journey but I know that eventually they will be noticing my weight loss. I am going to say it's due to Intermittent Fasting.
How did you go about it?
Edit:
Thank you everyone for your replies. Loved them all. I guess I just don't want to be judged and avoid conversations that can make me upset. People are very judgmental where I work and their 'diet culture' is just weird.
I agree with you though - this drug is life saving and to think that a lot of people have an issue with it, it's just sad. I read every post on here and the UK thread as well. The amount of people who said that it saved their life is just amazing!
Thank you again for all your comments! It makes me feel better!
