“Can medications fix obesity?”

Monitor portion size. Keep lessening the amount on your plate 2. Quality of food is import. Eat mainly whole food plant based food 3. Intermittent fasting. Going 12-14 hours of not eating. Drinking water if needed during that time. That is best done in the evenings overnight to morning 4 Be deliberate about moving or exercise
