The new weight loss fad that has become all the rage in Hollywood is Semaglutide (Ozempic). It is a pharmaceutical drug designed to help those with Type 2 Diabetes. It has the off-brand side effect of weight loss which has become widely known and sought after even for those who are not diabetic.
When you visit the main website for Ozempic, it pops up a warning as soon as it loads. This warning reads “Ozempic® may cause serious side effects, including Possible thyroid tumors, including cancer.” As it turns out, it has also been shown to potentially lead to pancreatitis, diabetic retinopathy, kidney failure, gallbladder disease, stomach pain, nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea or constipation.
Are the Results Really Worth Your Health?
Approximately 1/3 of people who take Ozempic for weight loss will lose up to 10% of their original body weight. The majority should expect to lose around 5%. That translates to a weight loss of between 10 to 20 lbs. if your starting weight was 200 lbs.
How Long Does the Average Ozempic/Semaglutide user keep the weight off?
On average once you stop using Ozempic, the weight will return within 6 months to a year.
Does the Manufacturer Approve of Semaglutide for Weight Loss?
Novo Nordisk A/S clearly states that “Ozempic is not intended for people without diabetes to take, and its side effects can be severe. If you are looking to take a weight loss drug that is approved for people without diabetes, talk with your doctor who can give you options.”
If it is So Dangerous, Why are People Using it?
And yet, more and more med spa-type clinics are carrying Semaglutide (Wegovy/Ozempic) for this off-brand use. Why? Because of the demand. Society sees their favorite celebrities using it with the results they want, and they are willing to overlook the risks to attain the body of their dreams.
It is important to realize that celebrities are just people too. They are fallible and under a lot of pressure to maintain their weight and appearance. They often make flawed decisions that they may regret in years to come.
Achieving Sustainable Weight Loss Goals
When it comes to Semaglutide (Ozemic/Wegovy) – The real question becomes – Are you willing to potentially risk your health to lose a dress size, temporarily? This type of weight loss does nothing to guarantee you will end up in better shape, just lighter according to a number on the scale.
If you want to lose weight the right way and recompose your body to a lower fat higher muscle percentage, talk to your doctor, dietician, nutritionist, or personal trainer.
Never jump on the celebrity diet bandwagon or you may get way more than you bargained for.

Our now forced toxic petroleum diets. Always a Neurotoxin & Carcinogenic, & they Don’t have the technology to remove these negative effects, but deemed edible & legal by corrupt politician pocket puppets of big oil & chemical.
I went to the VA for RA treatment, Methotrexate was prescribed. 7 months later, all symptoms are back, I discontinued treatment. When my bloodwork was checked, they found the RA marker & also Lymphoma & Bone Cancer, Scared me to my core.
I changed my entire diet to Gluten Free & Organic Only foods, within 3 days I had way less pain.
6 months later bloodwork results, No RA marker, No Lymphoma & No Bone Cancer.
9 month mark after diet change, still no RA or Cancers, my younger Dr. laughs & says, I’m looking at your bloodwork numbers & they can’t be anymore perfect than they are right now.
Dr. laughs & says, I’ve changed my diet to your’s.
This was in 2013, I’m still kicking & healthy, except for the Liar’s selling toxic petroleum laced Organic foods. Which only means, politician’s again perverted the word Organic & still allow petroleum toxins to be used, when it should be Null & Void, the use of the word.
The medical system has become a utter joke, petroleum based medications to treat disorders caused by petroleum toxins to begin with. Also, the VA gov has purchased toxic medications from Communist China, I researched companies in China who produce Methotrexate, Over 8,500 companies make Methotrexate.
Within 7 months on Methotrexate it took my hair, eyesight, teeth & lung function. VA gov denied my claim for damages for toxic medication damage.
I now do Regenerative Organic Farming, As I trust No food producers !
I agree with all of that! Not sure what it has to do with the Semaglutide though? Unless your point was “Its all poison” – in which case – yep!
Being on a Gluten Free & Organic Only diet, I’ve lost over 45 lbs., as your metabolism changes & your body naturally burns off the excess weight, without any gym time & you maintain a natural weight for your body frame.
Wheat, barley & rye, damages our digestive tract, lets in pathogens into our blood stream & the disorders begin & go into terminal diseases. These gains also carry Opiate Peptide, same chemical in the poppy plant causing heroin addiction & is the cause why we all love & crave these grains. 3 months to 1 yr. to heal internally on a cleaner petroleum freer diet. Once you walk away from these toxic grains, I guarantee you’ll never intentionally eat or drink these toxic grains again. Over 12,000 yrs. of consumption without any science as to Why we love these toxic grains, that actually damage us & cause a debilitated early death.
