Anti-obesity Drugs Offer Modest Results, Many Taking Them Remain Obese Or Overweight

Another take on the diet drug scam.
"If you are overweight/obese and are taking an anti-obesity drug do not be surprised if your weight loss is only modest; neither should you be surprised if you continue being obese/overweight, according to an article in The British Medical Journal (BMJ), published today."
A somewhat lucid moment in the overweight conversation...
"'Selling anti-obesity drugs over the counter will perpetuate the myth that obesity can be fixed simply by popping a pill and could further undermine the efforts to promote healthy living, which is the only long term escape from obesity,' Williams wrote."
Sue the pill makers and pushers.
