Ozempic face

February 15, 2025 09:24PM

I saw an article on A*L titled “Miracle”: 22 Side-By-Side Photos Of Celebrities Who People Think Used Ozempic. Kelly and Sharon Osborne are unrecognizable. Kelly may have had her jaw shaved in addition, IDK. The rest are interesting. Kylie Jenner, Christina Aguilera, Ariana Grande, and Jessica Simpson, who still looks like a hot mess. I didn’t want to see ‘Wicked’ b/c I thought Arianna’s thinness would be too distracting. She looks a bit mousy now. It takes some fullness out of the face, which on some of them is an improvement.

It seems like Ozempic is a bit harsher than the other GLP1 meds, and could have side effects. What happens when it’s stopped? Does the weight come back, like with Slimfast? So what if Oprah admitted to taking one. At least she’s honest.

I'm sorry.. I don't have any idea what that is. I don't follow celebrities, I don't watch news magazine shows, I've heard some of those names, but I couldn't tell one from the other on a good day.

O is a weekly injection to bring down a diabetic’s blood sugar. In the process of developing this drug it was discovered that it aids in weight loss, I believe as an appetite suppressant. It’s not covered by insurance for everyone, but people who are obese can get RXs for it, which has made it more scarce. Without insurance it costs a fortune, but celebrities can afford it, so they make great Guinea pigs for the rest of us to judge them and question their choices. I enjoy partaking in this from time to time, esp. on a cold winter days. It’s not so much that I give a rats A about their personal lives. Try it.

Since you feel you are some kind of writer and don't care about celebrities...
Why is all you write about, about them ??? Ozempic face Super Bowl shark jump Grammy Strip Show
You could write about the price of eggs, inflation, measles outbreak in Texas or anything beneficial or important !

**Correction - I stated I didn’t care about their personal lives. Same goes for you.**

Why is all you write about, about them ??? Ozempic face Super Bowl shark jump Grammy Strip Show
**Correction - The subjects were about a weight loss drug, the production of an award and half time show. If I choose to write about a celebrity in the ‘GENERAL’ section I will, w/o a thought of your approval.**

You could write about the price of eggs, inflation, measles outbreak in Texas or anything beneficial or important !

**I could, but I wouldn’t want to outshine your awe inspiring and beneficial contributions on those subjects. I’m sure your writing is MUCH better than mine and your interest in them far exceeds your interest in knocking my posts.**

Again, anything beneficial or important

February 16, 2025 04:35PM

claabe,
beneficial or important in the opinion of whom? you?
let the people decide....you're not the only one in the room.
I'll turn this one around on you.
why do most of your posts contain (IMO), a negative, nasty or judgemental element?
are you ok?
maybe you need some of the Okie treatment? you know...respect and good will.

Again I saw that under the sun the race is not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, nor bread to the wise, nor riches to the intelligent, nor favor to those with knowledge, but time and chance happen to them all.

February 16, 2025 04:43PM

Not sure about the negative, etc. But I'm not falling for the bait.

I can't get ozempic because I am not diabetic but I do take zepbound which has had a good impact on me, but not the miracle that many others have had. Some celebrities and even REAL people lost way too much weight too fast. It makes their faces look droopy and sunken. Some people look great but man some are just scary.

These drugs are meant for long term use. Obesity has finally been classified as a disease and warrants long term medication. For people such as myself who have food obsessions and food noise all day long, these drugs really shut it down. Technically you are supposed to stay on them forever just as you would a blood pressure medication. You find your maintenance dose and take it long term. So if you do stop taking it, and have had food obsessions, likely you are going to gain it back. The celebrities are probably looking for quick fixes.

Unfortunately, so many misconceptions out there about weight loss and just cut calories, its simple. It really isn't that simple for many. Trust me, I am 54 and still struggling to at least maintain because I already have joint pain and knee problems, don't want to add any more issues to it.

February 17, 2025 02:22AM

I keep reading and hearing of the term "food noise".
The term seems to have come about with the advent of these drugs.
Is "food noise" the same as a craving?
you know, some crave alcohol, some crave potato chips or chocolate chip cookies (pick your personal poison)...is this the same as "food noise"?

or is it simply like hunger? I do intermittent fasting....when it's time to eat? my stomach gets noisy lol.

February 17, 2025 03:08AM

Food noise is internal conversation surrounding food, “don’t eat this.. it’ll make you fat.” “Eat this… it’s safe..” and so forth. It’s also constant intrusive thoughts about food. It’s hard to explain but people with eating disorders suffer with this until they are weight restored and freed from the ED. Ozempic essentially creates disordered eating and undernourishment in many cases. The term has been around for a long time. My daughter suffered from anorexia and unfortunately I am too familiar with the lingo.

Ladies: Thank you for providing important and beneficial information to grasshopper on the definition of the term ‘food noise.’ He thought it meant farting.

February 17, 2025 11:56AM

Food noise is constant thoughts of food. For example if I am at work and some one brings in a box of donuts, I constantly think about them until they are gone. The internal conversation is something like.... If I take one now, I will just eat it later. Better take one now so you get the one you want. So I take one now but it stares at me so I eat it. Then ... An hour later, I stroll by that box to see what's left. Oh look, a jelly one .. hmmm, if I take one now i can eat it after lunch. So I do but it doesn't make it to lunch and then after lunch. Well ... Another. This is food noise. I don't eat them because I am hungry, it is there and I like them and I can't control it. I don't buy things like this for my house but I can't control what comes into work. When I started zepbound, I didn't give a crap about the donuts at all. I also can't eat nearly as much because whatever chemical in the brain I was missing before is now there and I have a shut off. I no longer eat until uncomfortable, just satisfied.

It is amazing to me what the drugs can do. So many people have eating disorders and these types of drugs have really helped.

February 17, 2025 12:45PM

Such a great explanation! I do not suffer from this, however, my daughter did go through this as she recovered fro m her ED.

Thank you for educating me, I now see what's meant by the term and I've been wondering.

February 17, 2025 05:52PM

I wonder if you can do intermittent fasting with a GLP1 at the same time. That would probably shed weight even faster. I’m surprised that it doesn’t make blood sugar tank for non-diabetics. It would be great if it could reduce cortisol too. Once menopause sets in and the natural loss of bone and muscle loss with age, it’s difficult to change body composition. It seems like weight bearing exercise should be recommended with these drugs.

Valerie Bertinelli’s face looks thinner and it looks like she has shed some weight. Kelly Clarkson looked like she lost weight, but may be off of it now. Definitely an improvement looks wise for most people, unless they took it too far. Sharon Osborne looks so gaunt

A lot of people have strongly suggested to me to get a continuous glucose monitor and even insulin pump, but I have a large fear of needles. Even though many have told and assured me that the affixing needle is actually very small and feels like a tattoo, I just can't, for now!

I wear a continuous glucose monitor. You wear it for 10 days then change to a new one. The "wire" isn't even a 1/16'' long. When I put it on, I don't feel a thing, don't feel anything while wearing it.

The docs said I was pre-diabetic ages ago. They gave me a couple meters and I probably still have enough lancets and test strips to choke a horse. My son threw away the last bottle of spent lancets and test strips that's been floating around under my desk for the last 8 years. I'm fine, I eat clean mostly, I have a real weakness for crispy, well-seasoned fried chicken. But I mostly eat simply prepared meat and fish with some type of sauteed or roasted vegetables.

I'm afraid of most diabetes drugs. They all seem to have long lists of side effects that affect kidneys and/or livers and require monitoring. But no doctor's office I've ever dealt with has ever put any effort into monitoring my health. Even the doctor that gave me Warfarin for my A-Fib said, "take it or don't take it, it's up to you," and he never scheduled any kind of follow up.

I've noticed that there have been many celebrities losing significant amounts of weight recently. But I also know, from having worked in the entertainment industry when I was young, that celebrities gain and lose weight randomly for acting roles and they use many patently unsafe methods to do so. I'm short and fat and I'm gonna most likely be short and fat until I die.

I think claabe wants you to write about topics that claabe would not have wanted you to write about two months ago.

Eat less, move more.

It's why I prefer to work on my own home, car, motorcycle, ride electric bicycle, travel and walk to places, etc. I have no time to look at celebrities and I barely have time to watch movies. I have no cable TV.

Did you see what Demi Moore looked like at the SAG Awards? Yikes! She was wearing an ugly drop waist leather gown that looked baggy on her b/c she has dropped so much weight. Her forearms looked like matchsticks. She needs to stop obsessing over her looks and deal with the fact that she can’t trade on her sex appeal anymore.

February 25, 2025 02:52AM

Demi Moore is 62 years old. I did not look that good at 62, I don't look that good now. And she has NEVER been fat. I've seen pics from when she was younger, and I've also seen a few of her movies, her face was fuller when she was young, but never fat.

February 25, 2025 02:22PM

I didn't watch the SAG Awards, but just went to YouTube to check it out.
I think she looks fine. She's thin, but I think she's been thin for much or all of her life?
I will probably start noticing more often how women appear when men's appearances are mentioned just as often.

You’ve seen a few of her movies? Talk about a waste of time!

Fun fact: Years ago an acquaintance who dabbled in acting when she was young told me she tried out for the role of Jackie Templeton on General Hospital. She got called back 3 times because they couldn’t decide between her and another person. She was getting exhausted b/c she had an infant at the time and felt that they weren’t serious about the process. When they wanted her to come back a 4th time she didn’t respond. They ended up hiring Demi Moore and chose to tell my friend that they decided to go with someone a bit younger, which really wasn’t necessary. Who knows where Demi would be if my friend didn’t bow out, since that was her big break into the Brat Pack.

I just saw a picture of her with her hand on her hip in that ghastly dress. I did watch her SAG acceptance speech to compare in real life. The arms look better but with zero body fat her neck and shoulders age her.
She went on about how Hollywood gave her the message that she was a ‘popcorn actress’ and she bought into it. Isn’t it more like she’s responsible for the choices she made at the time and chose a money grab over meaningful scripts? She picked her poison at the time and now wants to think she has made a triumphant career recovery because she decided she’s ‘good enough.’ All in a whimpering speech that makes her appear weak on top of it. She makes it about her looks, not anyone else, so in that respect she’s delusional.
