Rephrasing the famous quote, it's easy to lose weight — I've done it four times already, ranging from 95 kg to 60 kg over the course of the last 15 years. It's much more difficult to maintain healthy weight over the long term — the longest period I managed that was only three years. Even if you have all the information and know which problems obesity leads to, it's difficult to keep yourself from getting back into unhealthy territory unless you're willing to spend your entire life counting calories and tracking weight religiously.
It's something with the brain, it's insatiable and won't leave you alone until you stuff yourself to the point that you physically can't eat any longer. The last time I gained weight (from 68 kg to around 88 kg) I did it eating only healthy food in unhealthy amounts.
If I can get magic fix (like semaglutide) that would allow me not to think about food any longer and maintain healthy weight over the rest of my life, that would be great.
