Yes sir! The only possible outcome of a keto diet is being shredded. Just look at cats in the jungle.

Did strict keto (<20g carbs/day) for over 10 years and was more like 180 lbs. Stopped keto last year and put about 10 lbs back on but seem to have leveled off at 190 as long as I manage consumption. Definitely had more energy and felt better when on keto, but 10 years on it was a long ride.

Respectfully disagree, some people are just Metabolically broken. This type of drug GLP-1, has been around for over 20 years. they're just starting to get it right. The stuff coming out in the next several years, will be absolutely life changing. I don't mean just for the Fatteez, old people and people with disabilities. Maybe I've read to many Clinical studies and spent a little too much time on Reddit, but fitness in a shot or a pill is coming (Sounds Looney Toons, I know) Yes people are lazy, I wasn't one of them. I've worked on my feet since I was 10, my entire life in a production environment on cement. No different than a lot of people on this board I imagine, but I've had way to many surgeries already, with many more to go. Paid for everything myself and now there is a tool that actually works.
I actually mean this part. If you have someone you care about, that's in real bad shape, weight wise, diabetes, help them get this drug, it is life changing.
Only 500 bench and 800 squat?
Where do you keep your tampons?
I'm with ya on the 8.5 inches around.
It's like a cheese wheel.

People don't need drugs to get fat but they need drugs to lose weight.
Laziness and stupidity is rewarded.

I have never battled obesity but it’s not as simple as you think. It’s biology and in some cases eating disorders that are virtually impossible to overcome without some type of medication.
A buddy of mine was a 220 lb running back in high school and college. Tex Schramm had him in training camp with the Cowboys. Unfortunately that same appetite he had to be 220lbs stayed with him as he aged and became less active. He grew up on the rez in a large family and I suspect at times knew what hunger was. He’s battled his weight for 20 years and finally decided 4 weeks ago in his early 70s to start the “fat shot” on the advice of his Dr. He walked constantly and did lots of manual labor and couldn’t keep the weight off. He’s lost 18 lbs in 4 weeks now. The problem is that the shot makes him feel like **** for 2 days. There’s NOTHING lazy or weak about this guy.
Genetics are clearly part of the issue for some people, but growing laziness and excess consumption of overprocessed/fast food are undeniable across this country. "Comfort food" vs. "nutrition".
Smells like limburger?Only 500 bench and 800 squat?

I of course wasn’t thinking about these new drugs to knock off 25 lbs, especially given the decades I have essentially stabilized at my current weight. But I have been hearing so much about these powerful drugs that it is interesting to learn more about them in real life situations. Thanks for sharing a bit about your personal journey.
There were lots of obese folks before fast food but not anywhere near what there are now. The degree of obesity has exploded. The only morbidly obese people I can remember from the 60s were post-menopausal stay at home moms cooking for a litter of kids. We’re a wealthy nation with virtually unlimited access to French fries, pop and sweet snacks. Then there’s air conditioning. Working construction in the early 70’s I had a body fat of about zero because I was too exhausted and hot to eat. NOW? Almost everybody has whole house AC.
obesity is because of our diet. Other countries have many of the same luxuries as us but eat far cleaner. Obesity in some of these countries is nearly non-existent. Processed foods are designed to not satiate hunger. If you were to just eat foods that are advertised on TV you'll be fat and diseased.
Any video showing people at beaches in the early 70s vs a similar video today is shocking. I believe that processed foods needs to be in this discussion as well.
Steady exercise and good diet are essential to good health. There are those who have either genetic predispositions for obesity or mental health issues that lead to obesity, and for them surgical or pharmaceutical intervention is the appropriate answer, combined with exercise and a good diet.
However, there are WAY too many people in the US who claim that their weight issues are medical when it's just a lack of discipline.

58, 6 foot, 220. Arthritis is creeping in faster than I want to admit. The doctors say to keep moving to keep joints loose, but moving to keep joints loose is getting hard. 10 years ago I tried to get to "proper" height/weight and it was worst I ever felt. So I guess happy fatty.
This is so true. I have not traveled abroad but have many friends who have and they all say the same thing - you can spot an American a mile away - we are fat and out of shape compared to much of the rest of the world.
I have seen many of those amazing photos. I graduated in 72 and our heaviest kids would probably be normal today. The weights and obesity have skyrocketed not to mention what is going on inside of each of those people. In America we are always looking for the "magic pill" we can take without changing behaviors. Now we have eaten ourselves into oblivion and we want national health insurance to take care of us. Good luck with that. Our government and our big food industries along with big pharma are killing us, but we really don't need much help, we are lazy.
Appreciate your reply, I'm kinda coming down off my high horse. I managed to get some family members on it and they're seeing some nice results as well, only one person at work though. Everybody wants to know how, but not interested in taking an injection once a week. It's covered in our Health care at work, I don't like needles. Your not gonna like the knee replacement(s) at 50, I should know. But I gotta learn to let it go.
It was originally intended just for Diabetes, the weight loss was literally a side effect. I'm all for people giving this stuff a try, 25 lbs or not honestly. It's humbled me in some ways, not a bad thing.
