That's... Not a side effect.

That's from people losing weight on their normal diet because of Ozempic, but never changing their diet for their new lower weight selves, so naturally they immediately gain it back.

    That’s… Not a side effect.

    No, it is just the way this drug works. You take Ozempic, it supresses your hunger feeling, and you automatically change your diet as you are not as hungry anymore.

    Problem is that the depleted fat cells still exist, and a depleted fat cell releases signals that scream "I'm hungry! Feed me!", and the more they are depleted, the louder the call. While you take Ozempic, this is supressed, but as soon as you get off it, your body demands food to re-fill the depleted cells, and will not stopping before it has reached at least the former status quo.

    Just like the bounce back effect after a diet, only worse.
