Noh Sa-yeon, eating bread heartily despite nausea from Mounjaro

Singer Noh Sa-yeon has candidly revealed her experience using Mounjaro, an obesity treatment that has recently garnered significant attention. She disclosed that although she received two doses, she felt almost no effect in reducing her appetite, and after increasing the dosage, she even experienced discomfort such as nausea. However, Noh Sa-yeon's solution was unexpected. She brought laughter by stating her own philosophy that if her condition is bad, she actually needs to eat.

On the 8th, a video titled "So I brought the special lecture of Noh Sa-yeon, who was pregnant at 38, and Pharmacist Gureum, who is preparing for pregnancy" was released on the YouTube channel '35-Year-Old Noh Sa-yeon'. In the video, Noh Sa-yeon, broadcaster Yoo Byung-kwon, and YouTuber Pharmacist Gureum appeared to discuss various topics including health and pregnancy. During the conversation, the obesity treatment that has recently become a hot topic caught Noh Sa-yeon's attention.

Asking Pharmacist Gureum a question, Noh Sa-yeon revealed her usual concerns about weight, saying, "The things I am most curious about are Mounjaro and Wegovy." She then made the scene erupt in laughter by joking, "I have never been in the 50kg range. I passed right through it while sleeping." She used her characteristic honest wit to lightheartedly address her weight concerns.

When Pharmacist Gureum explained that many people are currently looking for obesity treatments, Noh Sa-yeon cautiously revealed her experience. "I'm telling you this in secret, but I also received Mounjaro twice," she said, adding, "Doesn't it look like I've never even taken Mounjaro?" It was a joke implying that although she used the medication, no particular change was visible on the outside.

In fact, Noh Sa-yeon stated that she felt almost no effect in reducing her appetite. When Yoo Byung-kwon asked if she wasn't eating bread on set, Noh Sa-yeon said, "The bread is being eaten," and added, "They say the appetite drops, but there was none at all and nothing changed." Contrary to the expectation that using an obesity treatment would naturally suppress appetite, she explained that she was not much different from usual.

The experience of increasing the dosage was also revealed. Noh Sa-yeon mentioned that she felt nothing special with the low dosage she used at first, and that the doctor also found this strange and told her to increase the dosage. Consequently, when she used the second stage product, she said she felt a bit nauseous that day. Recalling the situation at the time, she said, "It was like when I was pregnant. My stomach felt strange."

However, the coping method presented by Noh Sa-yeon after experiencing uncomfortable symptoms was unexpected. She said, "So I said, 'Let's eat quickly,'" adding, "I have to eat if my condition is not good." It was a case where the medication used to reduce appetite met her habit of trying to recover energy by eating. While her honest yet quirky confession led to laughter, it also revealed that the changes felt after using Mounjaro can vary from person to person.

As interest in obesity treatments such as Mounjaro and Wegovy rises, cases of sharing usage experiences are also increasing. However, the effects and side effects of the drugs can vary depending on the individual, and dosage adjustment must follow the judgment of medical professionals. Since Noh Sa-yeon's experience is an individual case, it is difficult to accept it as a general effect. If considering the use of medication in anticipation of weight loss, it is important to receive professional consultation based on one's own health status rather than following trends or the experiences of those around you.
