I can’t speak for everyone, but as someone who was prescribed oral semaglutide, I’m always baffled by such exclamations. If I eat too much or too little, I’ve overcome by nausea and acid reflux. It forced me to address my portion sizes.
I was also lucky enough to pick up a new phone around the same time that came with a watch and so it was easy to start tracking my steps, which then motivated me to start going for daily walks to meet my modest step goals. That evolved into me setting new personal aspirations and being regimented about a calorie deficit. I had the NHS pushing and prodding me and couldn’t have done it without their support.
That trifecta of the semaglutide, the watch/Fitbit and the NHS support were the miracle cure. It’s not a one size fits all thing. But if I could, I would recommend that the government gave watches and Fitbit to everyone.
It’s not even just the fast food adverts. It’s also knowing that processed food is a burden on the healthcare system and that organic foods ease that burden. The government should be taxing what is effectively slow acting poison to the point it’s not very profitable while also ensuring organic food is as cheap as possible.
But yeah, education and support are vital and we need people to those educators and supporters to know that one size doesn’t fit all. Different people need different approaches to their support and education.
