I'd guess there are a few factors at play, but my assumption is that the drug is perceived as a cheat. We see obese people as weak and loathsome due to their own failings and now they're going to simply take a drug and think they can get away with it? Surely they must deserve some punishment. Surely this drug is too good to be true. If it was available readily and cheap, I'd be curious to give it a try, though I have no desire to ever get below 10% body fat.
