My question was, are the people who say it's impossible to lose the weight or keep it off, being accurate with their statement, absent a thyroid issue? It's frustrating to cut through the hyperbole with some people in that situation. There's a decent amount of people out there who shout that it's an almost scientific impossibility for them to lose weight and or keep it off, which I don't agree with. Difficult? Sure. Lifestyle issues, injuries, lack of free time even poverty all contributing? Absolutely. But some sort of vague medical impossibility? I don't buy it.

You're not wrong, but it's also kind of irrelevant if they are being hyperbolic when they say it's a "scientific impossibility" for them. Once someone's brain decides something can't be done, it's game over. They'll never commit to the level of consistency it takes, because their internal wiring says it's futile -- unless they change their minds, and that in itself is a feat for some people.
GLP-1s are not a shortcut around willpower because willpower isn't even in the conversation. They make what was futile feel like second nature by quieting the constant hunger signals and self-sabotaging loops. When people say it's like getting the brain of a slim person transplanted into them, they mean it.
