    It’s not about being fucked. As with all drugs there are those that will abuse it but GLP-1s have been shown to have physical effects that reduce food noise and make people feel fuller faster and for longer.

    Have you ever eaten a meal and immediately afterward one of your first thoughts is what’s the next meal going to be? Or maybe you’ve felt satisfied, or even full but then that one food item you happen to have pops into your mind and you can’t get it out until you have some? That’s food noise.

    The feeling fuller faster and longer is crucial because some peoples digestive systems respond to food intake very slowly making it easy and common to overeat. Or process food too quickly so they feel hunger sooner than others.

    Combine the medication with improved habits and suddenly it’s much easier to lose weight. If your eating habits and intake doesn’t change then the medications aren’t going to cause weight loss magically.
