Saying ‘if you stop taking a GLP-1 drug (Ozempic, Mounjaro), you just put the weight on again’ is actually the point. Obesity is a medical condition. If you stop taking your drugs for any other medical condition, you will get sick again. Humans get fat because they evolved when food was scarce. Their bodies pile on weight when they find a rich food source, to store some away as fat for lean times. Now rich food sources are everywhere. So obesity is epidemic. It has nothing to do with calorie balance. Diet and exercise wont fix it because they don’t target the problem. Our bodies are out of whack with their environments. That’s what the drugs help to fix.
