    I agree with Dr Campbell far too many people do not wish to take any responsibility for there health problems and are very often in denial. Time after time I see obese people wanting a prescription for anti-obesity therapy and they all say the same thing that they eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly. The tablets aren't the answer, many give up on them after a few months and in most cases once the medication is stopped all the weight goes back on. Education is the key and not giving in to the pressures to prescribe this merely condones the inactive and unhealthy lifestyles that many people now lead.
