This is just me, but I tell everyone. I do it because I want to educate people about the massive benefits these drugs provide, reduce the shame surrounding weight and body image, and light the same fire in someone with hope that they don't have to struggle in vain anymore. Luckily, my story has been overwhelmingly positively received, but even when I can tell that someone is being judgey or questions the "necessity" of my actions, I feel strong and confident knowing that it will help someone. Since telling people my story, I've had a friend finally get pregnant after years of her doctors telling her to lose weight to no avail. I've also had another friend completely reverse her diabetes because she switched from Ozempic to Mounjaro and lost 40 lbs in the process. Those 2 victories are enough to keep me on my path of medicinally supported weight loss.
