[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It's also not a character flaw not to use a GLP if it's not medically necessary. [/b]

Being hungry isn't a crisis. I acted like it was and a lot of overeaters are afraid of "hunger pains/pangs." Learning to accept that if I don't eat often my stomach empties was a change.

Food talk is real but for me, I learned it was my reaction to other things, much more than hunger. My appetites are a mental/emotional reaction. Hence, I was eating even when I wasn't hungry, my stomach was silently full, and the food wasn't tasty. It might be low cal but it wasn't a healthy response to getting frustrated, pissed off, fearful, lonely, bored.

There is room in the world and even DCUM for people that use and don't use GLPs.

BTW, 12 Step groups for overeating and eating disorders work for chocoholics too. At least the ones I met there say so. [/quote]

+1000 to all of this.
Too many people jump to, or even "resort" to the quick GLP1 route but then use it as a fix, rather than using it in conjunction with the real life changes they should be making anyway. Americans are just too impatient, too vain, too quick to seek the superficial band-aids rather than doing the hard work and making sacrifices and changes. I'm not saying there aren't people who do all that and then still need the extra help - but THAT's who these drugs are for....not the every and any old pre-diabetic whose weight approaches 200#.[/quote]
