Americans are taking Wegovy and Ozempic in droves to bust through years of junk food and lousy eating habits. It’s like dropping a belly-busting bomb; we don’t know what damage it will do or what success it will have.

My brother and his wife got stuck in a hotel in Jerusalem. They managed to get out via crossing into Jordan and flying home. At any time, the situation could have gone sideways, but they were lucky and came home with stories to last a lifetime.
