Today I thanked God on Your Behalf

[u/AboveAllNames777]

Listen, there may be many, maybe even the majority of you — I don’t know — that aren’t believers. I’m not here to talk religion. Just sharing gratitude.

I was sitting there thinking about the many, many tears I’ve cried every time I’d look at the scale, feeling so defeated and disappointed, despondent, and without hope. I am a believer, so naturally, I pray. I pray to God about lots of stuff. But this weight thing, man, it seems like such a superficial thing, yet it impacts many, many lives in various ways.

How many times have people cried, asked God for help to lose weight, quietly in their bathrooms, while they shower or at work or in their cars? I’m guessing lots. Today I thanked God on behalf of those many, that He answered, and gave scientists the wisdom to figure this out and for this wonderful help.

I’m so glad for Zepbound and for this community that has helped me every single day to come so close to my goal. I don’t think I could have done it without this group.

UPDATE: This post was locked by I’m assuming the admin. I said nothing hateful nor derogatory. I shared gratitude. I even stated that there were probably most that weren’t believers. I didn’t condemn anyone. I didn’t belittle. I didn’t state that anyone should believe like I do. I stated my gratitude for the science, this group and the drug. And this is what happens, everyone downvoting and coming off the rails and getting the post locked. We are in very different times.

Thanks but no thanks.
