@nbcconnecticut: “Eat less and move more” has long been the advice given to people trying to lose weight. But one Yale obesity expert says it’s not a treatment for obesity.   Dr. Ania Jastreboff explains why obesity should be treated like other chronic diseases — and where GLP-1 medications fit in.   #glp1 #obesity #diabetes #health

Yeah but the medications are extremely expensive and insurances rarely cover it

Calorie deficit is literally how you lose weight?

“Healthy diet and physical activity” isn’t that just another way of saying eat less and move more

Skinny people always got a lot to say about weight loss when they’ve never experienced being obese

“Eat less and move more doesn’t work” immediately says “healthy diet and physical activity”……..

It is sad when people telling overweight. Oh just loose weight or stop eating. I literally know people over weight they hardly eat

Comments can’t fathom that she might mean it could be a little more complicated for an individual person than just 4 words

Oh yeah she’s def a grifter. Any doctor who says eating less and moving more is not the secret to most people losing weight is 100% profiting off of this weird agenda.

not surprised at the ignorance in these comments. she's not denying thermodynamics. there is simply a reason a calorie deficit is significantly more difficult to achieve for some individuals. and it's super easy for someone who hasn't had too hard of a time achieving it to tell people who have an incredibly difficult time that they're just moral failures.

Wrote a whole substack about the hierarchy of weight loss. We hate fat people and then hate even more if they use available medication to help them

Eat less and move more is exactly the treatment. The pharmaceutical chokehold is insane.

so eating less and moving more doesnt work, but glp1s plus eating less and moving more works?

This right here is why we have an obesity problem. Eating less and moving more is very much a solution to anyone’s weight problem.

People in the comments are thoroughly convinced that every fat person in America is just pounding calorie after calorie and they’re the exception to the rules even though they don’t eat that clean and still stay skinny somehow 😂💀

Jesus fucking Christ. A calorie deficit WILL lead to weight loss. Even if you take GLP-1s it’s STILL a calorie deficit that loses the weight. Switch to diet soda. Walk 500 more steps a day than you currently do. Change can be small

People just want to argue. She said to PAIR medication with a healthy diet. I find glp culture a little odd, but some people with obesity *do* need more support. I’ve heard GLPs stop food noise and make you feel full which would probably cause you to eat less.
