A 'game changer' weight-loss drug is making people disgusted by their favorite foods — including coffee and Chick-fil-A
People say the popular weight-loss drug semaglutide makes it hard to stomach their favorite foods.
Not only do they get fuller faster and for longer, but some say their taste buds have changed.
Experts aren't sure what's going on, but it could involve how hormones and taste buds interact.
Staci Rice had been a daily coffee drinker since the seventh grade. A marketing professional and mom in Georgia, she likes the taste, the routine, and how it makes her feel: awake.
But about six months ago, she walked into the kitchen to make a pot — and poured it out. "All of a sudden," she said, "I had no desire for it."
Rice, 40, had recently gone on the popular weight-loss drug semaglutide, which has since helped her lose nearly 50 pounds. She's now wearing pants she shelved 16 years ago, and seeing results she could never sustain on diets like Weight Watchers and Optavia.
But Rice still isn't able to stomach her morning coffee. "Every morning, I would try to make coffee, thinking that one day it would just taste good to me again." No such luck. "I miss having energy," she said.
Rice has lost her taste for other food and drinks she once loved, and acquired a few new ones. Long a fan of Chick-fil-A's "Number 1" — a 440-calorie fried-chicken sandwich served on a white buttered bun — she now describes the chain's kale salad as "delicious."
Ground beef is off the dinner rotation ("my husband and son are kind of upset," she said), and chocolate's lost its appeal, too.
When Rice tried a Kit-Kat, which she believes is the superior chocolate bar, for Halloween, she winced. "I can't even describe what kind of flavor it had," she said. "I just didn't want it."
