"The truth is that itâ€™s not about the weight. Itâ€™s never been about the weight. When a pill is discovered that allows people to eat whatever they want and not gain weight, the feelings and situations they turned to food to avoid will still be there and they will find other more inventive ways to numb themselves."

Marks forget that whenever somethingâ€™s too good to be true, thatâ€™s because itâ€™s a con.”
