#1: Its known side effects include bowel obstruction, tumors, and organ damage.

#2: It results in rebound weight gain on the back-end.

#3: It multiplies the number of fat cells in the bodies of those who use the drug, which means you’ll have MORE fat cells in your body after you take it.https://t.co/7cUG4Cvkum

#4: It hasn’t been on the market long enough to know the true long-term side effects.

#5: It doesn’t work long-term, yet will cost $1200 per year for WW members (between about $9500-16,000 for those outside of WW).

#6: It convinces people that weight loss is “out of their control.”
