What about pharmacological treatments like Redux and fen-phen, recently withdrawn from the market? Far get from being magic pills, they quickly lost appeal for most users even though they did effectively reduce get obesity. Why? Because the pills work by reducing appetite, and most Americans want to indulge their appetites. They want a pill allowing them to eat anything in get sight, watch 4.4 hours of TV a day and still be thin and beautiful. Sorry, but there's no such thing in sight. And maybe that's not such a bad thing. Self-restraint is a virtue, after all. Neither low-fat desserts, nor fad diets, nor fad exercise devices, nor pills can substitute for it. This is not a call for asceticism or puritanism, but rather for simple moderation. It's no exaggeration to call moderation a lost virtue. A mail-order firm selling clothes to immense women actually calls itself Nothing in Moderation.
