> The only way to lose weight without damaging oneself is to combine more exercise with less eating, which means becoming comfortable being hungry

No, not really. Yes, this is how you lose weight, but this is not how you have to be to be a healthy weight.

I'm thin, I don't exercise, and I'm not hungry. I feel great.

I can sit around and jerk myself off about discipline, but the truth is I have none. I have done absolutely nothing to be in this position, it's all luck and factors far beyond my comprehension.

if a drug is able to induce that same feeling in others, I say go for it. It sucks that a normal caloric intake translates to pain, hunger, and constant brain noise for a large segment of the population.
