[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At 100 to 150 lbs, your only options for permanent weight loss are surgical or medical (Wegovy, etc.). There are vanishingly few people who maintain a 100+ loss on diet and exercise alone (this is extremely well-documented in many, many reputable studies). Please ignore the posters who are selling diet and exercise only snake oil. They have no scientific support for their position. [/quote]

I hear what you're saying, but over the last 18 months I have lost over 95 pounds almost exclusively through diet (added in some walking over the last year or so but honestly not even much of that).  I certainly is possible to do.  For me it was all willpower, which gets easier once you see results on the scale.  Willpower is hardest when you sacrifice food and nothing happens or the scale goes up!

So "Please ignore the posters who are selling diet and exercise only snake oil."  wut?  You do what I've done for the last 18 months and then come back here and call it "snake oil."  Eating a healthy diet for like 95% of the last 600 days is not "snake oil."  Those are good habits that are good for you whether you're on weight loss drugs or getting stomach surgery or not.  What the heck is your problem?[/quote]
