Comedic skit on diet side effects from @leogonzall

The creator performs a comedic skit portraying a friend who has just started taking weight loss injections. Initially, the character judges others for "cheating" on their diet while eating a salad, but he is quickly overcome by the medication's side effects, feeling suddenly and intensely full. The skit culminates with him having to refuse a dessert, not out of willpower, but because he is physically unable to eat anymore, humorously highlighting the disconnect between his mental desires and physical reality.

Transcript excerpt

But the thing is, like, just be honest about it. Like, call it what it is. It's cheating. You know what I mean? There's no okay. Oh, I think I'm done, actually. Wait. Really? Yeah. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I am way done. As a matter of fact, I I think I may have overdone it. Oh my gosh. You keep eating, though. I'm I no. Please, please finish yours. I I'm done. That doesn't mean we have to go at all. Let me go get a bag for myself. You wanna share a cookie or a brownie? No. No. But thank you. You please feel free and get whatever you want. I'm telling you, like, if it was if it was the old me, I totally would. I just I can't. Like, it's not up to me anymore. Like, I genuinely like I wish. I wish. Like like, mentally, yes, I would love a cookie. Yes. I would love a brownie. Physically, I have nowhere for it to go. Does that make sense?
