> Eventually you'd want to come off the drug, right? When that happens, you would need to do just this.
I've made enough changes to my lifestyle that I am confident I could come off the drug and maintain the lost weight. I've added weight lifting with the prospect of bodybuilding as a hobby. I'm likely going to need to take time off just to get enough calories in during periods when I am trying to add muscle because I won't want to eat enough otherwise.
But I'm not actually looking forward to that, because the list of positive effects from these medications that are independent of weight loss is quite long. I expect that short of any major detrimental side effect suddenly rearing it's head or gene editing or some other superior thing appearing, I'll be on these for life, regardless of weight.
