Johann Hari, https://johannhari.com/ , dropped another really timely book this week, this time on Ozempic and other weight control drugs, why we get fat and how to not get fat. The problem is going back to a good diet doesn't reverse the hormonal effects of a bad diet. Intervention may be required for a while.

And while I cook good meals from basic ingredients I also eat too much and eat some junk, not much junk , but obviously enough to mess me up.

I'll get back to youse guys when I finish the book. 👍
