  1. That's not true. It's nowt to do with willpower. It's metabolism. Some dieters "plateau" very quickly. Their bodies are designed by genetics to hold on to weight. That's the problem. The real "weight-loss drug" would be to genetically reprogram us! 🙂

  2. ​ @Wulfuswulferson Because it's their metabolism.

  3. @goodlookinouthomie1757  Yeah? Balls!! How COME some people can eat "anything they like" (ie, eating "normally", not high protein or keto or anything else - yet they never put on much weight, and are always a "normal" size? And for others, to LOOK at a slice of cake makes them fat? And if they go on a diet, they "plateau" very quickly, hence "dieting makes you fat"? And it's NOT usually because the "normal weight" folks do a lot of sports, or (these days especially) have a very physically demanding job, or anything! Incidentally: nursing is a very physically demanding job, yet I've seen loads of fat nurses! Do your research. (There's not enough on the issue on my view. But one of the more interesting things they found out decades ago, was the difference between white fat and brown fat. The skinnies have a lot more brown fat (thermogenic fat) than white.)

  7. Well, Richard: I am currently on one of the three! You are not a doctor: so you have no right to pronounce on this medically, if you don't mind me saying so! Why are you going on about American "feeding events"? Don't the British traditionally stuff their faces with tea and biscuits, elevenses and all that? In fact, I really don't know why Brits in the old days weren't all fat. The amount of starch I know they ate! I suppose they depended on world wars to starve them back down again... 😏 But of course you shouldn't be on a medication like that without medical advice and medical supervision! (Ie, if you already have medical conditions, which I for one do.) Tbe worrying thing about this is that the GOVERNMENT is talking about handing this out willy-nilly! For economic reasons, not medical. That is wrong. Anyway: the drugs are already in short supply, and if the UK government tries to prescribe them, they will just run out even sooner! 😏😏 And thus deprive us who really DO need it!
