Revolutionary Doctors Endorse Diet and Exercise: Bold Move or Just Plain Silly?

In a shocking medical announcement, doctors are now endorsing diet and exercise over weight loss drugs for obese kids. How daring! After decades of pushing prescriptions like candy, they’ve had an epiphany that perhaps moving more and eating less might just be what the doctor orders.

Meanwhile, parents are baffled. They claim they can’t commit to the time-intensive behavioral coaching recommended by experts. But isn’t it curious how there’s always time for video game marathons and drive-thru adventures? Apparently, the secret to time management lies in the fast-food lane and the latest console release.

But perhaps the real finger pointing should be at lack of insurance coverage. Because clearly, you need professional, high priced diet coaching to know that maybe, just maybe, junk food and a sedentary lifestyle aren’t the best choices. Who knew?

Big Pharma execs are grappling with the crushing reality of unmet demand for weight loss pills to adolescents, given they can’t even meet digitally prescribed adult demand. Their shareholders, distraught by the missed profit bonanza, are plunging into a depression. Thus, some in the medical industry see a golden opportunity to boost sales of antidepressants.

So here we are, in a world where the idea of eating healthier and moving more is revolutionary. Hats off to those doctors for daring to suggest that perhaps, just perhaps, we don’t need a pill for everything. And to the parents juggling gaming controllers and fast-food bags, remember: finding time to encourage healthy habits might just be the real game-changer.
