It’s thought that Ozempic (Wegovy) can cause stomach paralysis, which can be permanent.

Keep in mind some of these are drugs approved for type 2 diabetics and in typical fashion the pharmaceuticals are greedily trying to line their pockets by finding other uses without knowing what the long term side effects are.

Here’s a novel idea, how about put some effort and responsibility into your life. Good old fashion exercise and a good diet of healthy foods. Worked with a guy that was close to 400lbs and over 6’4″.
