Something that has been hinted but not explicitly said: are these drugs performance enhancers? Like the same way you would take Ritalin you'd take these to curb your time wasting habits?

When the research comes in, I will be surprised if they are a performance enhancer outside the health benefits.

Meaning, it is performance-degrading to be overweight. When you remove that? you sleep better you breathe better you move better and therefore think better.

If they are directly performance enhancing, it is in an extremely subtle way- far less than a soda’s worth of caffeine.

For me they absolutely have been performance enhancing. Previously, especially in the afternoon it was hard to concentrate due to the constant cravings / constantly thinking about needing to eat something. These thoughts are completely gone, I can concentrate for hours and hours without needing to eat something. I have always only been mildly overweight, but these thoughts have been constant before I started Wegovy.

Hmm, OK. I got the impression that they might improve your conscientiousness, which for some people, that would equate to a performance enhancer.
