I feel like if they tried to do that costume during the era of the xmen movies it would have been more like green lantern, or the recent flash costume looks good now though

the real problem is hugh is tall and should be smythe sized. if i had photoshop on this computer i'd crop smythe's helmet av over jackman's head and also shrink him down to 66% of his current size.

i need to talk to my dr about semaglutide. i eat entirely too much, because i quickly go from slightly hungry to ravenously hungry to so hungry i'm puking. used to think it was cyclic vomiting syndrome that caused the puking, but learning that if i eat non-stop i don't puke has me questioning that diagnosis. i've read semaglutide helps some with addictions, so maybe that could help me cut back on the pot too.

it completely uninstalled my previous monstrous appetite and replaced it with a normal human being persons appetite. my diet has completely changed partly because I’m not that hungry and partly because too much fat gives me a tummy ache.

is that the weight loss drug that diabetics need? i have a bro in law who is like severely diabetic and was super mad because he couldn't get the medicine he needed because everyone wants to use it to just not be fat. I assume whatever supply chain poo poo was happening has been worked out, idk.

I assume whatever supply chain poo poo was happening has been worked out, idk. it's the same drug but the name and prescription guidelines are totally different. if novo nordisk decides to sell it to as one thing instead of the other, it's not the fat people making that decision. as far as i know there has never been a shortage of ozempic but ofc i may be wrong

on top of this if you're obese you're about six times more likely to develop T2D. if you can prevent that from happening you'll inevitably have more resources available for people with diabetes

it's really confusing to me why any insurance program would ever not cover it. sure it's expensive, but being fat is just so bad for you that i have a hard time believing there could even really _be_ a cost that's too high to make it worth it over time. maybe the insurance companies are betting that medicaid - and not them - are going to pick up the tab

c sciatica s: initial physio consult today went well. the guy gave me 4 stretches and 2 exercises to do daily, to start, and says i should be back to normal in 4-6 weeks if i am diligent i am still getting some pain and stiffness in my hip and leg but i can at least move around well and do my usual stuff even without meds. walking or standing for more than 5-10 minutes sucks but i'll get there with this regimen i think. so much different than 10 days ago

ozempic does seems to make some people extremely sick but it also seem to work extremely well for other people so I think the correct conclusion is to just try it if you want it but if you start to feel sick be prepared to stop it and probably don't try to power through it (if you wanted to use it and it doesn't work that sucks but since there seems to be actual progress on weight loss drugs that really work now hopefully there will be other options that don't use the exact same mechanism in the future) mystes fucked around with this message at 21:17 on Jul 12, 2023 |

idk much about it but my dad was recently complaining that the price of ozempic shot up (he takes it for diabetes). previously with a coupon he was able to get a month for $10 and it's now $70. hosed up he did lose a ton of weight on it though, so i believe it works for that. i'm just not sure if it's wise to be taking diabetes medication if you don't need it

# ? Jul 12, 2023 21:18 |

diabetics should probably get first dibs on the supply since using it for weight loss can presumably wait but I'm not sure that's something that's really possible to control I think it's really more something to take up with the drug company (or the dumb system in the us) rather than the people taking it

i've read that there were alternatives approved recently that work better, are specifically for weight loss, and aren't intravenous so there's that at least. i'm not really in need of that kind of thing though so i don't remember the names

unless you're a celeb/influencer secretly taking ozempic but hawking "wellness" and weight loss stuff under your own brand and claiming to dogfood it... doesn't matter why you take ozempic. it's the companies making and selling it that are loving things up for people who urgently need it, not the consumers imo
