There’s this drug Wegovy used for weight lost. It’s an injection. It works. Yesterday daughter, who pays out of pocket for it, was in with her Doctor for a follow up appt discussing her progress with this drug and conversation turned to how expensive it was, and how it’s hard to get insurance coverage for it. (Only certain insurance will pay for it and only when a person is substantially overweight.) The doctor told her drug was expensive because the medical industry doesn’t want people being able to afford it and losing weight as there is more profit in over weight, unhealthy people.

I take care of a lady and she has gained a lot of weight since I started cooking for her. Without my cooking she would eat all processed, junk food and candy. Healthy options are limited, as she has no teeth.
She has Humana and they are paying for these weekly shots. They really do work. Her cravings are way down and she lost three pounds the first week.
