If someone said to me:

‘Here Paul, take this pill — you’ll look like Adonis…it will melt your spare tyre, plus all your other wobbly bits – and, hey presto you’ll have six pack abs – and a body that Michaelangelo would be happy to sculpt…’

…I’d probably say yes too!

But that isn’t what weight loss drugs do. It’s not that simple. They come with caveats, risks, and a few hard truths.
