Do weight loss shots work?

I've been struggling with my weight for years, and now I'm considering weight loss shots. I've heard mixed reviews, so I wanted to ask directly: do weight loss shots actually work effectively for sustainable weight loss?

They definitely work to suppress your appetite, but honestly, I am so sleep-deprived from my night shifts that I forget to take them sometimes. When I do take them, I barely feel like eating, which is great but makes me feel like a zombie.

I have been reading so much about these shots on the internet lately because nothing else seems to work for me. They seem super effective but the cost and the idea of injecting myself every week is a bit scary to think about.

My uncle is using them and he lost a ton of weight in like three months. It looks crazy effective but it's super expensive, so definitely not something a college student like me can afford anyway!

They do work medically, but you must get your kidney and thyroid functions checked before starting them. These are heavy medical injections and should never be taken without a proper prescription and blood tests.

Yes, they are clinically proven to work for obesity, but you must ask your endocrinologist clearly about the potential risks. I consult a specialist at Apollo and they monitor my pancreatic enzymes regularly to ensure it is safe.

They are highly effective for weight loss, but you must combine them with regular physical activity. Even a 40-minute walk every day will help maintain your cardiovascular health and prevent muscle loss while you are on these shots.

I am a bit shy to ask my family doctor about these weight loss shots. Do they cause any bad stomach pain or vomiting? I would love to know if anyone here experienced that during their first week.

My elders always advise regular home meals, but for my severe weight issue, my doctor recommended these clinical shots. They have worked really well for me, but I strictly follow my doctor's dosage and get my monthly tests done.
