[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s sad. These people are going to be on this medication for life. Many will never develop healthy exercise habits which are as important as weight. [/quote] +1 True. And, now that these drugs are approved for young people, the next generation will think this is normal. [/quote] Not sure about near you but kids where I am are super into healthy eating and exercise.[/quote] There are definitely segments of the younger population that are more health conscious. But there are others that are not. These drugs becoming mainstream as a fix is just another way life paths will widen. You can't short cut doing the work to be successful in life. Training for a marathon using a shake weight versus actually doing the training will have exactly the expected outcome.[/quote] Obese people are more likely to exercise if they lose weight, because everything is easier on the joints when less heavy, you're not out of breath as fast, your body doesn't hurt as much... So these drugs are just really a useful tool increasing the chance they will be more active, if that's the component you are worried about.[/quote]
