If your body is enhanced—whether it’s with Ozempic, steroids, TRT, a BBL, or any other kind of procedure or treatment—you don’t get to dismiss the people who are working hard without assistance and taking longer to reach their goals. Everyone’s journey is different, so let’s respect that.
When people compliment me on my progress, I always say, “Thanks!” Then they ask what I’m doing, and I tell them: I started meal prepping, I train 6-7 days a week, I lift, I do yoga, I do cardio, I teach Zumba, and I train jiu-jitsu. But I’m also on TRT and Ozempic.
The TRT helps me recover faster and train harder, more often. The Ozempic really helps control my appetite. If I eat too much, I puke it out. Meal prepping has been a crucial element for me, but truth be told, I didn’t do this alone or only naturally.
I work really hard, but I do have some chemical help. I can’t say I did it solely with diet and training. That wouldn’t be fair or realistic to anyone. I want to be honest about that.
So to those who use enhancements and claim they did it all through hard work, it’s better to be upfront. When someone has a perfectly flat stomach with abs and others don’t quite match that level of fitness, it’s understandable to wonder what helped. Just be honest about it.
If you prefer not to share, that’s your choice. But it’s important not to imply superiority because of something you acquired rather than earned. For me, honesty matters more than appearances.
Just a life long New Yorker sharing the journey through my lens. Please take note of a post’s date. The views I express here are subject to change and evolving as I grow and learn.
