It’s Wellness Wednesday:
So my friend 2 Bee’s and I were talking about BCBS not covering Wegovy after 2025 unless you’re prediabetic/diabetic… let’s really talk about it.
This isn’t shocking it’s strategy. Just like Ozempic, the door opens, the dependency builds, and then access gets controlled. Meanwhile, people are out here thinking these shots are a long-term solution to weight loss when in reality, they’re a temporary fix with long-term consequences both physically and psychologically.
Here’s the psychology of what’s really happening:
A large percentage of people using GLP-1 meds like Wegovy and Ozempic don’t actually have metabolic disease they have behavioral patterns rooted in emotional eating and reward-based habits. The medication suppresses appetite, but it doesn’t retrain the brain. It doesn’t heal:
The Stress eating
Dopamine dependency from sugar
Binge/restrict cycles
Late-night emotional eating
Childhood conditioning around food (“clean your plate,” “food is love”)
Yes, Im taking It here, yall know I’m back In my “Psychology Bag” lol.
According to the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), over 80% of people regain most of the weight within a year of stopping GLP-1 meds. Why? Because the habits stayed the same. The relationship with food never changed.
And let’s keep it a buck: Some are becoming addicted to the results, that smaller waist, that number on the scale, so when the weight creeps back, the cycle of shame and panic leads right back to the injections. That’s dependency. Not healing.
Meanwhile, real side effects are being silenced:
FDA reports stomach paralysis (gastroparesis) linked to GLP-1 meds.
Lawsuits mention pancreatitis and gallbladder issues.
Vision problems and kidney complications rising in reports.
Long-term neurological impact? Still unknown. We are the experiment.
Listen, I’ve said it since it hit our community that I’m not anti-medication when it’s medically necessary. I’m anti-coping mechanism disguised as health. If we don’t address mindset, metabolism, gut health, and habits… we’re just swapping one addiction for another.
Healing is deeper than injections.
It’s nutrition + routine + emotional regulation + accountability.
