Thank you for having me on the channel! One thing I wanted to clarify is that I do support the use of semaglutide in type 2 diabetes AND in people who are obese/overweight with a weight-related condition. Obesity is a chronic, complex disease and it is not uncommon for people struggle to lose weight with diet modifications and exercise alone, so there is certainly a role for medication-assisted weight loss. Though the long-term effects do need to be further studied and side effects exist, in my opinion, the more options we have for treatment the better. The decision to start semaglutide should be an individualized one based on a person's specific potential benefit vs risk - there is no "right" answer for all. When there is a shortage and every dose matters, we need to prioritize those who for which it can be the greatest benefit - which includes both people with type 2 diabetes and people with obesity/overweight and does NOT include people who want to lose a couple pounds to fit into a particular outfit or achieve an "underweight" appearance.

I am a medical doctor and I am suffering from obesity. Back in November 2022 I decided to embark on a weight loss journey. I have so far lost about 52 lbs. I considered prescribing Ozempic for myself to aid the weight loss but decided against it because of the shortage of Ozempic and the fact that so many diabetic patients have not been able to have access to the medication. It is my conviction that diabetics should be a priority. I’m happy with my choice not to use Ozempic because I wanted a safe, slow and gradual weight loss and I have been able to achieve that with better diet and exercise. To be completely frank I also saw it as a challenge to be able to lose weight without medication. I also wasn’t too keen on giving myself weekly injections. I also am aware of the potential side effects and figured it would be better to try without Ozempic. That being said, I don’t think there is anything wrong with using Ozempic to treat obesity as that is also a serious illness. But def not a fan of it being used as a weight loss aid for people who are not overweight. Thank you for this video, very good info.

In short, catering to what they want women to look like. I am not disagreeing that yes, some women, do think too much about their physical appearance, but there are factors too that comes with that besides just being “superficial”. It’s also not just women falling into said trap that you said.

There are other drugs that do similar things just without the side effect of weight-loss (not talking about insulin) that type 2 diabetics can take. Ozempic is not a life saving medication like insulin, and there are other drugs that do similar things. Blame thin ppl in Hollywood, I don't care about that, but the attitude that people with obesity are killing you because you can't get Ozempic is disingenuous and false. I am also sick of the fear mongering of, well if you take it to control obesity you have to be on it for life.... just like someone taking it to control type 2 diabetes. Also, I have seen plenty of people who complain about fat people taking their meds posting in forums that while their A1C is good and other numbers good they haven't lost any weight and are unhappy about that. Weight-loss, for many people who also have type 2, is clearly a motivating factor. My sis had an A1C of 7.4 and her cholesterol was through the roof, doctor wouldn't even diagnose her with pre-diabetes, but I knew someone with an A1C lower than hers complaining about all the people taking it "just to lose weight" when they should be first in line because they have diabetes. Having a diagnosis can sometimes be a privilege depending on your access to quality care. Other people taking FDA approved medication for their condition as prescribed by their doctor is not your business. Not all weight-loss is because you "just want to look good" and also, some people literally die before a doctor will give them decent treatment, losing weight can be life or death. It might make me sad that someone is losing weight just because they want to be socially acceptable, but I am also not going to fault them when we live in a world that denies you healthcare, jobs, and basic kindness if you are fat.

So far I’ve lost 19 pounds, I’m losing about a pound a week but I feel so much better and health is the most important thing. I did it by fasting at least 18 hours daily, reducing carbs and sugar, and exercising 5 times a week. It takes patience and consistency.

I have type 2 diabetes. Last year there was a global shortage of Ozempic and I went six weeks without it, finally going back to the insulin injections I used to take twelve years ago. I went in for a routine eye test today and they told me that there were signs of diabetic damage to my eyes. I have to go back in three months to see if the eyes have healed or not. Now I understand that obesity can be a serious problem, but I think the people facing blindness or amputation should have first call on this medication.

Thanks for making it clear that "Ozempic face" is actually just weight loss face. Also that Obese and overweight is a good reason to use it. As someone who is on Ozempic b because of being in the obese catagory, it has been a HUGE game changer and I am so so grateful to have the support it offers in changing my lifestyle and diet and finally getting somewhere with that after trying and failing a million times. It's really hurtful and frustrating seeing the backlash involved. I was prediabetic. And let's face it, MOST type 2 diabetics got there from first being overweight or obese. This drug is saving so many more people from falling into the diabetic category. People don't see that. I wish the frustration would be aimed at the fact that Wegovy is WAY more money than Ozempic and so people who could move to Wegovy are on Ozempic. Thanks again for making this video the most even keel I've seen yet. ❤️

Thank you for this, I think people don’t understand that obese people are at risk or have multiple other co-morbidities like hypothyroidism, pre-diabetes, high cholesterol, hypertension can also use ozempic. If there wasn’t a shortage I don’t think people would be complaining as much. I also think that there are many other options for medications for diabetics and not just ozempic or wegovy. Most people in my family are diabetic and they’ve been on many different medications to find the right one. Yes ozempic is good at what it does but it’s not the ONLY diabetic medication. Hopefully when the supply of ozempic meets the demand this craze will die down.

I mean maybe some people with obesity need it to qualify for life saving surgeries, maybe some people need it because they are on their way to a heart attack, maybe some people need it because we live in a world where any anonymous person on the internet can come on to a comment section and say mean things to fat people without consequences. My grandmother had type 2 diabetes, and she was obese. Do you know which one severely impacted her life... obesity. She wasn't ridiculed for being diabetic, she wasn't denied access to the public because of diabetes, she wasn't given substandard care because of diabetes. But she experienced all those things because she was fat. She did a good job controlling her diabetes though diet, insulin when needed, and other therapies, but it didn't matter what she ate, she was fat. And that is the thing that led to her having a lower quality of life. I would love to live in a world where the size of your body doesn't seriously impact life outcomes due to hate and stigma, but we don't, so you should look within and reflect on why you are so disdainful of fat people who are just trying to make the best choices they can for themselves.

While this is true type 1 diabetics do not bring it on to themselves like you’ve previously stated in the past. It’s a problem with the pancreas that they can’t help & need insulin to survive. Type 2 is largely due to age, bad habits, excess weight and unhealthy living it can also be genetic or more susceptible to getting it if you have many type 1 diabetics &/or type 2 in your family so lifestyle changes are necessary but people like you especially with no education in this area stating false accusations and unhelpful advice that could in fact make these people more hopeless, depressed and give up hope.

Lifting people up and accepting a wider range of traits that can be beautiful instead of being obsessed with the status quo of beauty standards which change fast anyways, can be a much more healthy approach to people feeling good about themselves since that is the main goal for everyone. Beauty should not be a competition outside of certain professions that do exactly that. But it is also true that you decide how much other people's opinions affect your own decisions and how you see yourself.

My energy level is starting to increase drastically, and I owe it to Ozempic. I had not weighed myself throughout this journey, opting instead to concentrate on my mind, body, and soul. Knowing what I put I'm my body has been key. I initially started keto with Ozempic, and that was very short-lived. I needed to portion my food out and be sure to work with a dietician who can teach you how to eat the things you love and still lose weight. So, just how much have I lost in one year? 87 lbs.

My mother has type 2 diabetes and has struggled to manage it for nearly a decade. Our family has a history of type 2 diabetes and obesity. After struggling to maintain healthy blood sugars she was faced with the fact that she may need to move to insulin - which if started you can’t really transition back to other medications. She was facing renal failure and a multitude of other awful symptoms. Her doctor then prescribed her this medication which in NZ is known as trulicity. It has changed her life and helped her to maintain healthy blood sugars and reduced renal failure potential. She now enjoys her life - walking the dog, going on holidays and generally being able to live a normal life. While there is a benefit of losing weight on this medication, it really does change lives for people who have otherwise had to struggle. Wish this was around for my grandparents.

It would be really interesting to observe her owning a KZbin channel that focuses on women's health, especially in this generation where there is a significant lack of understanding and awareness regarding women's health issues. We often take our bodies for granted, her serene and tranquil voice would definitely add to the experience.

@@LolcowFarm-qr3ifmen are the default “normal” patient in most medical & safety research. most just consider women little men, which obviously is not correct and results in lots of women’s symptoms being overlooked/ignored. only in the past year has the first female crash dummy been made.

Lack of understanding and awareness regarding women's health issues? Do you live on Saturn?

yes? what are the symptoms of heart attack onset for women? generally, unless you're a healthcare provider, you would really only be familiar with the symptoms for men.

Such professionalism, such beauty, and she is good at explaining too? Dr Grand is definitely a great addiction to this video. Keep up the good work of informing people, both of you. Happy to be part of your subscribers.

Really loved what Dr. Grand shared. She hit the nail on the head. I am on Ozempic because of diabetes and now I am having trouble getting my prescription filled 😢. Thank you Dr. Grand for providing one of the clearest explanations of how Ozempic works. Not only are you intelligent, but you are a lovely person inside and out.

Dr. Liz was excellent! Her patients are so blessed to have a physician with great bedside manners and who educates wellness. Believe it or not these skills have been lacking in the medical profession. More Dr. Liz please!

Love your wife, great meeting you! We love that you joined Dr. Gary, at last. I am on Mounjaro and lost10 lbs in 7 weeks. Have 5 more to go, hit a plateau now so increasing protein and more exercise daily. I never went up from 2.5 dosage. I am petite and tried going up yet got nauseous.
