illness isn't caused by a lack of medication ... it really is as simple as stop doing the thing that harms you.

It really, truthfully, is not. I never once said that a lack of medication is the thing stopping me from losing weight, so idk why you're bringing that up, but "just stop eating in an unhealthy way" is a simple sentence but far more complex in practice.

However, we clearly don't see eye to eye on this so I'm just going to disengage.
