Many Americans have turned to compounding pharmacies to get popular weight-loss drugs, due to lack of availability or expensive retail price tags. But this option will soon close for consumers, Ken Alltucker reports. |

Johnson said she's going "all in" preparing for the eight chicks set to arrive mid-March.
