> There's nothing about Ozempic etc. that keeps you from eating more protein, working out more, and so on

Except that the population that takes it never develops those skills.

Not necessarily true - it's a lot easier to workout when you're actively losing weight. Obese people aren't stupid, they've tried working out before. Turns out it's hard, it hurts, and the benefit you get from working out in relation to weight is slim to none. If they're on the right track already and their mind a little clearer, I'm sure it makes it more likely for them to work out.

It's also easier to workout if you don't drink and smoke, which Ozempic also helps with.
