Heard some crazy side effect stories where this one woman's bowels stop moving completely even after stopping the drug. She can't poot, it doesn't move. :-X

All good here. Been on GLP-1 for 16 months. I’m on a pretty low dose. Once a week injection. It costs me $25 per month. I lost 65 pounds in less than a year and haven’t lost weight in about half a year now.
I settled at exactly the same weight I was in my senior year of high school. I used to go to the gym in high school to try to put on muscle (I was a vegetarian and was eating 5 meals a day) but I never could gain a pound. That weight is exactly what I currently weigh at age 49. Interesting, right?
No notable side effects for me.
The biggest thing is that it helps me to not eat out of boredom or need for emotional comfort.

Do you see this as a long-term thing? I would love to knock off 20 pounds, but don't want to get into something that will never end.
