Agreed, but as someone whose weight has fluctuated a lot in life, I know exactly what is causing it when I’ve gotten overweight. Typically, I’m not moving my body enough, and probably eating too much / not eating well. If I address it, the problem gets solved. It’s really that simple. I get that not everyone is in my situation where they can do that, but it’s the solution for probably 90% of obesity cases. Really all you have to do is eat less carbs/ fried food and eat more fiber and protein. Exercise in any way you can. Start slow with walking and light cardio and work your way into resistance training and more intense cardio. The issue with that solution is it’s hard, and a lot of people just aren’t motivated enough to put in the work to achieve that goal. I’m happy that these drugs exist, but I just wish that nutrition was something we focused more on in school, and people were more knowledgeable about their bodies.
