I completely resonate with what you’re saying, Chloe. As someone who takes medication for endometriosis and antidepressants, I’ve experienced weight gain as a side effect. I used to he skinny af but also completely hormonally fucked and suffering mentally because of that. Now I am mentally fit but my body is not as skinny anymore. It’s exhausting to feel like my health needs are at odds with society’s narrow view of 'wellness.' Ozempic’s popularity highlights a painful truth: health is still wrongly equated with thinness. It’s disheartening that body-positive messages are being overshadowed, reinforcing harmful ideals instead of celebrating the diversity of real, healthy bodies. Thank you for calling this out.
