If people just ate well balanced meals of real food, their weight issues would largely take care of themselves.

But people want quick fixes and easy solutions, which is why taking a pill (Ozempic) is so much more popular than changing their bad eating habits.

Stop. Ozempic is usually an injected medication.

And it actually assists in stopping bad eating (and other addictive behaviors).

And weight problems don’t miraculously go away with healthy meals. There are many hormonal conditions that cause weight gain and prevent weight loss. PCOS, hypothyroidism, etc.

Respectfully, people like you are ignorant and self righteous, constantly imputing obesity to character defects so you can feel superior.

It’s a form of virtue signaling and you just had to put it out there.

I agree with you, Metmom, but I think that occasional fasting rests the body, allows the digestive system to catch up, and is overall healthy. Not to mention the spiritual aspects of it. Imagine how much healthier people would be if we followed a more balanced diet and fasted a few times a month doing 12-12, 16-8, etc. I use the 12-12, but should be more consistent with it.
