>if you want weight lose drugs that cost $1k+/month, you should show proof you aren't being a glutton.

This makes as much sense as "if you want anti-depressants, you have to prove you aren't being sad".

I mean, there's a case to be made there. More often than not, anti-depressants are the first option given when someone is presenting those symptoms. There is little to no effort to address the root cause. It should be a last resort. Sadly young people, esp young girls, are being given these drugs like candy. It should be medical malpractice.
