My ex-husband's new girlfriend is on Ozempic. My kids mentioned last weekend that she's lost "so much weight and looks really good now." Cool. Great. Happy for her. Except I'M on Mounjaro. I've lost 32 pounds. And I'm also losing half my hair. Meanwhile from what I can see on her ig (yes I stalked her, don't judge me), her hair looks thick and perfect and she's out here posting gym selfies. I wanted to scream when my daughter said "she's doing really good on her medication." Like why does SHE get to lose weight and look amazing and I'm over here shedding like crazy? We're on basically the same type of medication, aren’t we? How is this fair? I know I shouldn't compare. I know her journey isn't my journey. But my kids are watching both of us go through this and I feel like I'm losing in every possible way. How do I not let this destroy me? Because right now I'm about to stop my medication just so I don't have to feel like this old balding hag.
