But that’s not really true. As someone who has over 100 pounds to lose, I can assure you that just taking a weight loss drug doesn’t just make the weight magically fall off without any effort. I saw someone else say it perfectly the other day: GLP-1 medication levels the metabolic playing field so that diet and exercise can be effective for people with obesity.

Uh the drug helps me maintain a healthy diet and exercise routine. I don’t think you’re fully educated on these drugs. And they’re not just great for weightloss. They have cardiovascular protective effects and A1C stabilization for pre-diabetics. I’ve lost 80 lbs and have kept it off while eating health, exercising 4x a week, and taking a GLP1.

I managed to lose over 60kg ( down from 150kg to 87kg) without drugs. Took 12 months. I’m 2.5 years on from being 150kg and maintaining between 88-90 kg. How ? Eat less junk, move more . Basic physics regards energy in versus energy burned.. yes I know it’s more nuanced than that.
