@bloombergbusiness: Ozempic and similar weight loss drugs, known as GLP-1s, make people less hungry, but they don't seem to stop them from going out to eat. Bloomberg Businessweek’s Deena Shanker joins Stacey Vanek Smith and Max Chafkin on the Everybody's Business podcast to unpack this new phenomenon and why the weight loss drug craze is actually benefiting the restaurant industry. #business #ozempic #restaurant #weightloss #wegovy
That’s a misconception. You don’t forget to eat, you don’t not eat. You don’t crave garbage food as much, you don’t eat large portions.

Where are you getting these numbers?? Insurance doesn’t even cover glp-1s for anyone other than diabetics, not even people with PCOS or other conditions that it can be used for. No way it’s even CLOSE to 10% of Americans.

I’d be fine with paying the same price for a higher quality, smaller portion entree. No need for a heavy starch.

as someone who's been dieting and who's had weight loss surgery it's ridiculous that any restaurant would do this. folks can just order an appetizer or a meal and bring what they don't eat home

My mom and I split everything. It ends up being perfect portioning.

There are bad side effects too like gastrointestinal issues. I’ve already seen one lady on here today about it.

Maybe if the portions weren't so large and all restaurants used Sysco instead of fresh.
