This is the reason that people hate vegan extremists.
That, unfortunately, is how it goes. If the only vegans that most people deal with are the obnoxious assholes then they assume that every vegan is an obnoxious asshole.
Can you link me to the place where it says these words?
"I actually think it's ok to torture animals"
Extreme vegans are the people who stand outside restaurants, grocery stores, butcher shops, etc. and yell at people just trying to go about their lives calling them carnists, corpose munchers, blood mouths, animal torturers, and talk about murdering animals (murder is the killing of one human by another) or eating cadavers (a cadaver is a dead human body.) They don't simply go about their lives living their best vegan life but harass and harangue people. They do the same thing online.
Can you find me a sample of someone saying, "I actually thing it's ok to torture animals"? I'd be intersted to see that if it's actually happening. Or, are you creating a straw man?
I hate chickens. They're loud, obnoxious, and they kill and eat each other. That doesn't mean that I'm going to abuse them. I take good care of my chickens despite the fact that they're assholes.
Ozempic slows the emptying of your stomach. You stay full for longer. If you over eat you will have that uncomfortable feeling of being over full for a long time. That sucks. It means that if you eat something that makes you gassy or that gives you heartburn you're going to pay the price for many hours. I believe that the people who fail on Ozempic think that they can take it and continue to eat how they have always eaten and the weight will just fall off. That's not how it works. If you go to bed with a full stomach you're going to build up gas. That gas is going to force the contents of your stomach back up and give you reflux and often vomiting. I believe that the people who complain that Ozempic made them throw up continued to eat WAY too much and paid the price. I had to start taking an omeprazole (Prilosec) with sodium bicarbonate to help with heartburn. I eat a modest high protein, relatively low carb breakfast most days, often skip lunch because I'm not hungry, and try to eat supper between 4 and 5 to give my stomach time to work on my meal before I lie down.
You have to adapt how you eat to the reality of taking Ozempic. I really leaned in and the weight came off quickly. I have a couple of times where my weight stabilzed and I didn't lose any weight for two or three or four weeks but then it started to come off again.
I think that you will find that these anti-vegans are reacting to the behaviour of the extremist.
I'm on Ozempic. My doctor put me on it for diabetes and weight loss. I had gone from 285 to 235 on my own before the pandemic but got back up to 265. I'm now at 209. The initial couple of months were unpleasant until I figured out how to live with Ozempic. Now I'm doing well.
No one hates vegans. Almost everyone hates vegan extremists. No one cares what you eat. You want to eat brown slop and claim its the best thing ever fill your boots. You want a vegan pet, get a rabbit. Just don't try to shame everyone else into doing what you want and don't feed a carnivore a vegan diet and no one will say anything.
Pretty much.
