Idk some see it as using it in excess due to body image issues in Hollywood but a lot it seems like its always a thinly veiled shot at the body positive movement whenever I see this mentioned. The South park episode I’m sure helped fuel this. Hell of a lot of moralizing over ozempic in general and people not losing weight the “right way”. 


Cheat is an interesting phrase to use here. Weight loss isn’t an atonement for the sin of gluttony. It’s a health issue and Ozempic is a potential treatment. What purpose does this judgemental moralizing serve?
No, weight loss isn’t a punishment, divine or otherwise. I think it’s good if there’s easier solutions than having to drag yourself through different methods just to lose a few pounds here and there but never make any progress that makes you happy. But that’s not what I was getting at. The problem I have with ozempic is that it’s produced with the same resources that insulin is, and in favor of more profit, the company making ozempic had a long-ish shortage on insulin production this year. Ozempic isn’t necessary to survive, while insulin very much is. While I don’t want to blame people for using it, I find myself doing so in spite of knowing better. I posted to vent my anger at the drug and its producers, but I also wanted to explain that while I know better, I still feel resentful at people for taking ozempic. It’s not a logical feeling, and I am very aware of that.
Edit: I saw you edited your comment, so I’d just like to say I agree with the assessment that weight loss isn’t supposed to be a punishment for overeating
