Well, this is a good thing. Wouldn’t it be nice, if they would help diabetics get help? But, no. The FDA is garbage…staffed, almost entirely by employees of the pharmaceutical industry. From the top down, the FDA has been extremely corrupted. I learned that in a pharmacy class, at the University of Houston.
Unbelievable how Americans eat garbage and lots of it and then want a instant fix to their weight issues.
There is only a couple ways to loose weight, eating less and tracking your calories as you eat and becoming more active to burn more calories than your taking in on an active basis. Even getting lap band or shrinking down the size of the stomach via surgery limits the amount of calories you can take in-unfortunately as in my mother's case, she did not follow through with the healthy eating part and it caused her more serious problems. Short of that, a serious disease like cancer or some other medical condition will effect weight loss as well. Most people refuse to realize a great deal of the problem is due to WHAT AND HOW MUCH THEY EAT! But everyone is waiting for that magic drug to fix the problem. Heaven forbid they actually address the real issue that is causing the problem…🤔

She injected herself with an untested drug for 10 months but didn't lose weight.. you could've joined a gym and lost all the weight in those 10 months
The fact that that lady had no bad reactions is a positive review of the compounding pharmacy. You cannot keep eating mcdonalds and lose weight. The drug is only ONE part of a complete weight loss plan. People are freaking insane.. i swear…
All she got was flabby legs and diarrhea but she was able to eat the food she liked and not exercise
