    Not everyone overeats due to trauma… I stress eat and have eat often out of boredom/habit. I’ve personally tried dieticians and found them to be snake oil salesman( not saying all are but the ones I have tried) who are trying to sell their weight management group programs or are indoctrinated in the ancel keyes food pyramid bullshit. Two things work for me, these drugs and a low carb diet.

    If I need services similar to those of a dietician, I’ll use an A.I agent.

      The dieticians you talked to aren’t medical dieticians then, they’re people who call themselves dieticians without any university degree. AI will just spew whatever bullshit it was trained on so you’ll probably be reassured that what you’re doing is ok because it was trained on/r/fitness or whatever instead of scientific papers.

      Eating out of boredom is an unhealthy relationship to food, I’m not saying all cases are out of trauma (holy shit lemmings have a hard time when things aren’t spelled out for them), I’m saying the underlying issue needs to be fixed to have a permanent solution, you said so yourself, you need the drugs and low carbs diet in order to fix the problem, stop both and the problem comes back.

      You didn’t fix your leaking roof, you applied a patch and it will start leaking again if you remove it.
