I know the remainder of us still fat have just been holding off on the Wegovy bandwagon have been worried about losing all the ripped muscles that are surely hiding behind those fat folds. Looks like we may not have to wait much longer.

Should we buy Eli Lilly stock now or has it already crested?

"Eli Lilly just showed that you can lose tons of fat while barely losing any muscle"

Or you can get up off your fat azz and go walk, mow the yard, ride a bike, or whatever and put down the sweets and grease, all for free w/out putting that engineered crap in your system

Challenge accepted. I have no doubt Americans can defeat this. We can eat less, lose weight, and still get fatter!

You know how many hotties are walking around the South covered up by 40-50 pounds of extra weight?

I spend 80 hours a week Facebooking, Netflixing , YouTubing, gaming, stock marketing, reading, video gaming and TikTokking....but let's blame everything on what I eat. #commonsenseisntcommon

Dieting is going the way of the dinosaur. It's like putting your finger into the hole in the Hoover dam.

It would take 30 minutes of intense exercise daily just to cover most fat people's soft drink habit. You throw in a small personal bag of lays chips and that's another 25ish minutes. Or 35 minutes of brisk walking. So there are lots of fat people that would need to exercise an hour a day just to cover their soda and chip habit. Exercise and particularly building muscle will make it a hell of a lot easier over time to get to and stay at a healthy weight, but most fat people in the US can't out exercise their diet as it currently exists.

So Eli Lilly has a really high PE and this drug is still 2 to 3 years from market if things go well in Phase III. Also, Zepbound, which is its drug that competes with Wegovy (Ozempic) looks to be on its way to overcoming Wegovy's advantage from being the 1st to market and it might even become dominant. So if this drug gets approved, it's likely to cannablize a lot of sales Eli Lilly is already getting for Zepbound.

So no clue. Looking at the stock price, doesn't seem like this has moved the needle at all. Not sure if that's because Phase II trials just don't mean that much or because any approvel will be cannabalizing its own sales to a large extent.

Yes, sweet drinks are a hazard for people who don't want to exercise. And so is nearly everything else . Fortunately diet drinks and low calorie drinks taste better than they've ever tasted before. You can have taste and only get 15 calories a can with just a little bit of due diligence.
