“It’s a mind game,” Danielle Payton said.
Danielle Payton, 33, is believed to be one of the longest-serving patients on a GLP-1 injection.
Payton had initially gone to see a doctor to discuss getting a breast reduction when she was told that if she didn’t lose weight, the doctor wouldn’t operate and her long list of chronic illnesses would only grow.The doctor told her she had to get down to 165 pounds and was prescribed Victoza to manage her prediabetic condition.
While drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro and Victoza are being touted by some as a quick way to shed a few pounds, none are FDA approved for weight loss. After seeing how the prescription drug helped people to feel satiated and better manage their eating habits, doctors began prescribing the drug as an off-label use for long-term weight management.
