I think it’s all very interesting, and glp-1s could be a very helpful tool in the fight against obesity.
The skinny people I know well dont think about food in the same way that I do. When I diet, it’s very similar to a panic attack when i think about food but deny myself. My brain perseverates over that food, and very rarely can I stop the perseveration by ignoring or through mindfulness exercises. My understanding is that glp-1 essentially fixes this problem, and that really would be a game changer for me. I’ve lost 80lbs without glp-1s and put the weight back on – twice.
Then we consider how simply losing weight reverses chronic health issues even without exercise, and a great case is made in favor of treating obesity with glp-1s without stigma. I would be willing to stay on glp-1s, even a microdose, for life to keep the food noise at bay and maintain a healthy weight.
We just need to get the cost of the medication way down so it’s widely accessible.
