Are they the solution to obesity? I'm curious as to whether the weight stays off long term. 10 or more years at least or else it's just another bandaid. What we need is better access to nutritious food that doesn't take up so much of folk's scant downtime and tight income. I understand there's lots of reasons people are obese that aren't just laziness, but the drug doesn't solve those either. They're still not getting the nutrition they need. It's an improvement having poor nutrition with a lower BMI rather than poor nutrition and their current BMI, but not any kind of solution in my opinion.
