    I don’t pay a penny for Ozempic. My insurance covers the entire cost with no deductible. It’s cheaper to have me lighter and healthy than it is to have me fat and diabetic with high blood pressure or dead. The $650 is what my pharmacist told me that it cost without insurance. I don’t know if that’s true and I honestly don’t care.

    I suspect that the people who are failing on Ozempic expected it to be a miracle drug that suddenly and effortlessly made them skinny. That isn’t me. I worked hard to get to where I am and I’m still working hard. I’m the lightest I’ve been since my late teens at 201 lbs as of 5 minutes ago.
