Just fast bro. Like how our elders did/do.  
  
 These drugs literally kill your appetite, so that you fast longer. There's no other 'magic' to weight loss.

Some serious work going on in the world weight loss drugs- Grapevine

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

- Scientists are exploring the potential of obesity drugs to treat various ailments, from alcoholism to Parkinson's disease.
- GLP-1 receptor agonists, a class of weight-loss drugs, show promise in reducing cravings for substances like alcohol and tobacco.
- These drugs may also lower the risk of cardiovascular events, ease sleep apnea, and slow the progression of neurodegenerative diseases.
- Researchers are still trying to understand the mechanisms behind these benefits, which may involve both weight loss and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Despite the excitement, experts caution against viewing these drugs as a universal cure, especially given unknown long-term effects.

Noticing a massive improvement in sleep quality after getting all black sun blocking curtains. Especially considering the stress from work that is making me die on the inside, getting some sleep is a respite.

[Thread] What are some things to invest outside of financial assets that you invest in?

A gym memberships or home gym or something towards your physical health. No matter how healthy you are, your body needs to be more active since we spend most of our time sitting.

- The success of weight loss and diabetes drugs like Ozempic, Wegovy, and Zepbound is expected to boost gym memberships. 
- These drugs, projected to generate $50bn in sales this year, could lead to a consumer rush towards strength training equipment. 
- The shift from cardio machines to strength training equipment requires significant investment and time. 
- Despite side effects like muscle loss and intestinal distress, GLP-1 users still need gyms for strength training. 
- The trend towards strength training offers gyms an opportunity to attract or win back older customers post-Covid.

Futuristic ideas for a better india HeLp

Customer Success

Hi folks, 

I'm Aadit, Co-Founder & CEO at Zepto. We're one of India's fastest growing consumer internet companies and are today present across 10+ cities in the country. 

I'd love to chat with you folks about my journey in building Zepto, my thoughts on the quick commerce space, organization building, amongst other things.

Ask away!

I'm Aadit Palicha, Co-Founder & CEO at Zepto. Ask me anything!

Hey @Aadit  
I’m @salt  
  
Some questions from my side: 
1. As companies scale there are many diverging opinions on how things should run. How do you ensure that the best ideas drive the company even though they might be in direct conflict with your point of view?  
  
2. What kind of impact have you seen via use of Machine Learning to streamline operational efficiency wrt initial benchmarks? 
  
3. What is the key focus area that you are currently working on? 
  
4. How do you balance creating shareholder value versus customer value?

Can people compare scams like Electoral Bonds vs 2g scam?

Who is more corrupt- Congress or BJP? Why?

Current scams came to light only after SC’s intervention. Currently all our media houses are busy bootlicking and not doing any investigative work.  
  
 Also consider the fact that most corrupt politicians have moved to BJP in past few years. It’s safe to say BJP is the party with most corrupt politicians.

Gen Z and Millennials are too harsh on themselves nowadays. Like literally trying to get 0 figure and following keto n protein diet after getting motivation from some reels of so called fitness influencers!

Covid vaccine impact is still under scan and people are doing so without any supervision.

Few days back I replied to a Q on gv, X was asking like should I cut my calories from 2500 to 600 just to reduce weight.

Please be mindful of what u do to ur body and mind.

Om shanti to the departed soul.

Be Mindful of Gym & Diet.

Senior Consultant

Hi guys,
Both me and my wife weight between 100-105 kg. Oru baby is 1 year old. We want to loose weight but we can hardly access gym due to tight schedule. We both have fatty liver , wife has got gall bladder stone and she is a feeding mother.

We want to reach first milestone around 80-85 kg which was out weight 2 years back.

Is there any free app to plan and guide weightloss. We heard like calorie deficit diet can help. Also cutting down the sugar and junk food.

Any thoughts?

Weightloss

Analyst

Working on an app which is at a very early stage. 

Layman gist of the idea:
A step counter app which rewards users in a specific, useful and sensible way in return for the steps tracked and maybe couple other physical activities that the user undertakes. 

Current market:
I know there are couple apps already in India which do the same and few more available globally which do the same but obviously they are not too mainstream and not actually that beneficial to users to form a habit forming culture. Basically its just like those stupid cred coins concept where you earn but no way to spend!

My outlook:
I obviously have  broad horizon and want to create a useful and meaningful money making ecosystem through some strategies/ideas that I have and make it an actual money making app/company with a sensible rationale and economics behind it and not just some zabardasti ka startup just for the sake of "having khud ka startup." 

My aim:
To achieve great level of gamification in healthcare and create an ecosystem/network through this with lot of things to come in future.

Please share your views how stupid/irrelevant you think this (obviously citing the reasons).
If you feel its somewhat intriguing/sensible, feel free to brainstorm here/DM/email (codenerdai@gmail.com)

Need honest opinion/constrictive criticism about this app

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

So basically I'd prefer to work in an industry which would grow exponentially while I'm in my early 30s. Examples include web3, AI etc

In order to be there while the growth happens, I'm okay to risk it and grind while being an early adopter. What are some industries/professions you think meet this criteria?

Do mention where do you buy from as well.

Are you obese or diabetic ? If yes, what are some of the most common products / services you buy on a regular basis ?

Could this be a planned negative PR against India?

Consultant

Had a regular yearly check up 2 weeks back and found that I'm diabetic. Both my parents are diabetic and I assumed I'll be as well at some point in my life as an inheritance from them but never thought this early. I did not tell this to anyone, not even my wife. Took me 2 weeks to get hold of myself and let the feeling sink in.
Started making changes to my life style since yesterday and started working out as well. Today is Day-2.

Health scare at 35

My Experience:

2 years back I was detected Pre-diabetic. Cut down consumption of white sugar to zero. Cut down on any food that has White Sugar in it (Biscuits, Ice Cream, Desserts, cold drinks, etc.). Became conscious of reading ingedrients/Contain's part when I buy any packed food. 

Developed habit of walking 8K steps or burning 150Kcal after dinner. My glycemic levels are now normal. I am no longer a pre-diabetic. This can be managed with active lifestyle. White sugar is a poison. Rely on Fruits to fulfill the glucose levels of your body. 

PS: After 2 years I've started consuming food having white sugar occasionally ( on Diwali or Holi and that too in limits). Never restricted myself from consuming naturally sweet fruits (Banana, Mango, Apple, etc.).
