    Why put in effort educating people on nutrition and healthy eating when we can just pump them with drugs?

    Why put in effort growing nutritious food when we can just feed them the usual slop and then pump them with drugs to make sure they don’t get too plump?

    Who cares that long term this will be detrimental for health, because instead of eating a balanced healthy diet and exercising to stay a healthy weight, we instead allow the eating of shit and no exercise as long as there’s a steady supply of weight loss drugs?

    What could possibly go wrong?

    Looks like 🙂

    On the actual topic I know a number of people getting injection privately and swearing by the results. There is a pretty aggressive referral campaign as well which considering the monthly cost is going up you can see why people will sing it’s praises.
