[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Glad you found something that works for you to be healthy.  Try not judging others who choose a different method.

Everyone has the right to choose what's right for their body[/quote]

Please point to the place in my post where I judged anyone else?

You can’t, of course. That’s just your stuff projecting.

I’m a morbidly obese middle aged woman who has struggled with food addiction since suffering childhood traumas too many and awful to go into, compounded by adult trauma as well. I don’t judge anyone.

But there IS a cure for metabolic disorder and all the associated symptoms (that we call diseases but which are actually symptoms) which doesn’t involve any pharmaceuticals. It’s food. The science is undeniable.

I do think that as a matter of public health we should be funding the resources people need to learn to eat right (something many MDs are confused about, they don’t teach nutrition in medical schools shockingly given the epidemic of obesity) and to cope with the myriad factors that feed eating disorders. However this funding would go to people, to nutritional education and support and therapy and support groups etc. and those resources don’t have the lobbying power that Pharma and Ag does.

Our system is sick, and we are all victims of it. I don’t judge anyone for that, but I think people should have the same supports to choose the healthiest option as they do to choose options that can destroy their bodies and mental health. If you do the deep dive on long term stats for bariatric surgery and weight loss drugs, the outcomes are not great. They may reduce rates of symptoms of the underlying problem - obesity, heart issues, etc. - but they aren’t really promoting healthy vitality. They are symptom management, they aren’t a cure. Facts, not judgment.[/quote]
