GLP-1 drugs have captured the public’s imagination, while prices have been dropping and online doctors in supermarkets prescribe quite freely. The reach will be ever greater as the pill version of the drug, as opposed to the current jab form, hits the marketplace. The notion of managing appetite, of the desire for food, of mouth hunger, of wanting to quell the food chatter that constitutes internal and often obsessive thoughts about eating and not eating, is the promise. So too is the longing for bodies to be transformed. To be slimmed down and disciplined. Having the right kind of body, by which is meant, the acceptable and admirably thin body, will become something to be bought through these drugs.
