WTF? Really it's easier to give obese people drugs than guide them to eat the right things? NO - REALLY??

Somehow - we are now treating obesity as a disease that can be tackled with surgery and now,  drugs that mimic a gastric band so the Telegraph reported today.  I mean what, you can treat this with more man made chemicals after we told people to eat all these cheap plentiful man produced carbohydrates that make us fat???

Is it me?  Is this just completely bonkers or what?  My kid brother has been on the Low Carbohydrate and High Fat diet for 2 weeks now and has lost a stone - sure he was big to start with but the weight is dropping off and he doesn't feel like he's being starved and neither does he feel hungry either.  We are not meant to eat this junk and such high levels of sugar, fructose and other horrible stuff that's cheap and plentiful just think of the damage we are doing to ourselves...

The only people getting rich out of obesity are the food processing and drug companies and  we are being told all this junk is good for us!  Please, give us the facts and change our diets and let's reverse these terrible problems all come about in the past 40 or so years since it was decreed that all these insulin spiking foods were good for us.  Turn the food pyramid upside down and finally you will have something near the truth of the matter.
