We needed a study to establish that after stopping the intake of a drug that makes you eat less (and starting to eat more because of stopping), you regain the lost weight. I know people understand a concept as obvious as this, but apparently, if we needed such a study, it wasn't that clear to some.
It's a willpower issue, not an information issue.
Then you don't need a study that tells you that not taking the drug makes you gain weight again. Yet here's a study saying so.
People just do studies, okay? We have a lot of PhDs kicking about, if we don't keep them busy they'll become unruly.
