Something feels extremely dystopian about this statement that I cannot quite put my finger on.

I hate to say it, but I do not think taking meds to curb snacking sounds healthy. Just learn some self control.

Your comment completely doesn't understand how hard it can be to be on a sustained diet.

The funny thing is that ever since starting to take GLP-1, I've kind of gain empathy to the "just stop eating so much" crowd. When you are on GLP-1, you lose a lot of the feeling towards food, so it's easier to understand how a person who has never had the same level of urges and difficulty would feel.

FWIW, there is no research on "natural" diet that shows sustained long term meaningful weight loss. And even the most controlled and extreme short term diets of people in controlled living spaces with prepared food shows 17% weight reduction at the state of the art. While GLP-1 medication reach 20%+ on average without any lifestyle change. It's just not comparable.

Easier said than done.

Snacks could also be healthier. The bread we are sold could be less like pound cake. Easier said than done.

Poor people can stop being poor by just earning more money.

Self control is only effective for some people, so for others, meds can be the best option. We have plenty of natural selection that makes us crave calorific foods and often that craving will override our decision making. (Disclaimer - I'm not on weight management drugs nor intend to be)

Something feels extremely dystopian about this statement and I have no issue putting my finger on it. Stop judging others for how they want to live their life
