[QUOTE="HiredHand, post: 4245010, member: 2469"] Tell me you don’t understand weight loss… Or the human metabolism at all. Exercise is a healthy activity for many reasons, even moderate amounts of exercise are beneficial. [B][I]Exercise isn’t the best drug for weight loss[/I][/B]. You cannot out exercise a fork. Exercise burns very few calories compared to the calories your metabolism requires to keep you alive on a daily basis. Ignore the calories burned on your smart watch or fitness tracker because you didn’t burn that many calories during that last workout. The best way to lose weight is through eating fewer calories per day than your metabolism needs to carry out all its various functions. You have almost zero control over your metabolism for the most part and it’s not an engine that can be revved up. Increasing lean muscle mass will raise the number of calories your metabolism requires on a daily basis by some small amount. And overweight and obese people don’t have slower metabolisms than thinner people, they have higher metabolic rates and burn more calories per day. GLP1 drugs are a version of a hormone that our bodies produce in the gut. For some people they offer an effective way to lose weight and maintain an healthy weight. They shouldn’t be used to lose weight and then be completely stopped, this will result in regaining weight. Similar to way a person takes medication to control blood pressure, once the blood pressure is well controlled, they don’t discontinue taking the medicine. And like any drug GLP1(s) can be misused, but that shouldn’t stop people from having access to medicine that can benefit from them. [/QUOTE]
