Is Lizzo an Ozempic Girl? We’ll leave that to her to answer.
Lizzo has battled trolls who criticise her body image on numerous occasions before, but this insidious evil in our society loves to take on new forms.
A form of body shaming can occur even after you’ve lost weight.
In this case, the weirdos in Lizzo’s mentions are accusing her of using Ozempic to lose weight, and she’s setting them straight.
Did Lizzo use Ozempic to lose weight? (No)
Lizzo’s recent Instagram In the post, seen below, a commenter wrote: “Did she use Ozempic or snort cocaine?”
Ozempic is the brand name for semaglutide injections, a life-saving drug for diabetics that also slows the metabolism so much that it has become controversial as a luxury weight loss method for the wealthy.
Cocaine can cause weight loss (or weight gain) because the illegal stimulant effectively rewires the brain’s pleasure-reward functions to suppress appetite.
Of course, publicly responding to an Instagram post criticizing Ozempic is outrageous and, with rare exceptions, intentionally offensive.
“Why are you following me?” Lizzo responded the next day. Great question. Outside of academic or work-like situations, why would anyone follow someone they clearly dislike?
In the case of Lizzo, some people follow her simply because she makes them angry. They vent their frustrations in their lives by saying cruel things to and about her. It makes them feel good. And, Hopemaking her feel bad.
No, Lizzo isn’t using Ozempic for extravagant weight loss
On Saturday, September 21, two days after this comment, Lizzo rephrased the troll’s question in a meme font intended to mock it.
“‘Ozempic or Coke?’ fans,” Lizzo captioned the post. Instagram post. This time, she had a lot more to share.
Her tongue-in-cheek video was accompanied by the on-screen caption, “After 5 months of weight training and a calorie deficit, Ozempic’s suspicions finally emerge.”
When thousands of spiteful assholes insult you on the internet every day, it helps to keep things positive.
In her post, Lizzo joked that the brutal criticism was “like a reward” after months of hard work at the gym.
Many followers were quick to praise Lizzo’s response to the mean-spirited trolls — and, of course, the effort she’s put into transforming her body.
Why is semaglutide injection controversial?
Using Ozempic and similar drugs for extravagant weight loss isn’t as easy as it might seem: the appetite suppressant effect wears off quickly once you stop taking it.
The long-term effects of using these drugs in this way remain unknown, and due to the known side effects, many believe that injection fasting is not the best option.
But the real controversy comes from the fact that this is a drug: Diabetics have a hard time getting refills on prescriptions without a prescription. need That way, some wealthy people can lose weight as long as they get the injections.
So asking if someone is using Ozempic isn’t even a sarcastic compliment. It sounds like an accusation. Like an insult.
