As an ex-obese person, you and I both know that you don't eat because you're hungry, but because you like it / you're bored / any other reason. Hunger-cutting medicine doesn't help with that.
If you are obese you can easily lose 2 pounds a week just by counting calories. I lost 90 pounds in 7 months despite eating burgers, pizza and sweet stuff whenever I wanted, just less than before. No exercising required either (it's good for your overall health, but almost entirely useless for weight loss).

- issa 4y agoI think it is fair to say that there is a variety of reasons why people are obese. Some people certainly eat out of boredom, for emotional reasons, taste, etc. But there are people who also feel hungry all the time. Those people will benefit. Others may as well.
