It's true that the solution is more complicated than "just eat fewer calories", but it's also true that some people just need their baseline to be reset.
I'm perfectly capable of maintaining my weight at ~160 lbs, but losing a large amount of weight to get there was difficult enough that I didn't try. A friend did pretty much everything to lose weight after she had children but couldn't, went on GLP-1 agonist for a few months, lost it all and kept it off since.
People always lament that, like most drugs, the effects of a GLP-1 agonist stop when you stop taking it. What I'm saying is it doesn't necessarily matter. Some people will need continued support, some won't. Taking the drug isn't a "life sentence" and you aren't guaranteed to re-gain the weight after you stop.
