> What’s more sustainable, changing your lifestyle to maintain the weight you lost, or being beholden to taking a drug to maintain that same lifestyle change for a hope at maintenance?

That's some pretty... charged language. But even so: the drug, clearly. People take drugs reliably as a matter of empirical fact. People likewise emphatically don't "change their lifestyles" as a general rule. If they did we wouldn't be talking about this new drug, would we?

It’s reality.

People take drugs if they can afford them; will GLP-1’s be available dirt-cheap to the masses or limited to those fortunate enough to have health insurance.
