    Look, we only get one life and you’re allowed to do whatever you want with it. If you think you need to hijack the reward center of your brain in order to lose weight, that’s entirely your choice. The risks may just be outweighed by the rewards, I’m sure the rewards are much more substantial the higher your weight is.

    That being said, I will always be skeptical of ‘wonder drugs’. If I’ve learned anything in life is that if it sounds too good to be true, it is.

      It’s always good to be skeptical. But skepticism isn’t “no, this is false”. It’s “how do we know if this is true?”
