These drugs are being used as catalysts for healthy living. The fact that they seem to work thus far is evidence that obesity is on some level driven by powerful hormonal forces that influence impulse control and willpower, which addressed, can give people the freedom to make better decisions and effectively pursue a lifestyle they've struggled to maintain.
The cosmetic narrative you're pushing is actually quite disgusting.

You have some evidence for this claim?

It's suggestive. It's nowhere near evidence.
> the freedom to make better decisions
As long as they're on the drug.

No it isn't. It's a valid concern about how this medication is _marketed_ and _dispensed_. It's also an obvious concern to have. Pretending that I'm disgusting because I'm actually worried about the future outcomes for these patients is bullying highroad nonsense. Come off of it.
